    I have always found people on MSE to be friendly and helpful, sure we have a laff now and again but we never exclude anyone except for trolls - no-one wants them.

    I have PM'd someone before to offer advice when I have been in a similar situation and also when I want advice about something that would bore the pants off people.

    I always look for newbies and offer them assistance where I can, I will also get rid of trolls.

    Don't worry most of my PMs are a) business - ie other BGs pointing out threads on my boards, b) abuse from users, c) spam, d) demands about why I have removed a thread (funny cos if I do remove a non spam thread I always PM the user :) ), e) questions about board rules...

    I've just got to face it... no-one loves me *bring out the mini violins*

    Good job I have wine and icecream or I might just cry... as it is... I HAVE WINE AND ICE CREAM NAH NAH NAH NAAAAAAH NAH :p

    OP, I do think you're being a bit oversensitive here. As others have said, in any community, either off or online people will make friends with one another. It doesn't bother me at all if I'm contributing to a thread and someone starts going off-topic with someone they know. I certainly don't think that people get together to start slagging anyone off from here. You've no evidence at all about that, it just seems to be something you've surmised.

    Give it a bit more time and you'll get to know lots of people from the forum and may end up making friends here yourself.
