In response to "I appreciate this and the thought you put to it. Rereading last night's thread I can see why people interpreted my reaction as dismissive." by loosilu

it was mostly me and tfox involved, and you have to know I do not hate you. (I don't think he does, either, as "hate" is super strong, although there is more of a negative history there, sure.)

I understand stepping back when a true pile-on is happening, or after the fact; but when you're not answering questions directed at you, including from someone who, at various times, has had your back and/or tried to help you see what others are seeing? that's different.

I will say that when I see tag-on comments to mine from people who have had a long and negativity-filled history with you it makes me uncomfortable. it sometimes seems to detract from what I'm saying? something like that.

I have to say, even direct questions are dangerous in that situation. History has shown that almost ANYTHING I say can make it worse, - loosilu Apr 17, 13:15 2
- I guess I'm just not seeing that 2 people is a pile-on. if you feel it is, though, I'll have to accept it. - b. Apr 17, 13:24 1
