this forum seems like it needs a good group hug. I hate conflict and will always try to resolve it where i can be of help.
My own feelings on the point of if this is healthy or not, are from the forums point of view. Bickering among ourselves does not encourage new viewers to become more than guests and to actually join in the discussion boards.
I have lead other forums before and have seen this kind of thing really erode everything good about it, and also wears our much needed admin and moderators out as they end up mediating.
You cannot expect to get along with everybody all of the time. Human nature just doesnt allow it, and i am sure there will be more than one occasion where a debate gets heated. But anything that involves a personal matter should be taken to the pm system. NOT made into a situation where the whole forum gets involved. THATS when it gets unhealthy for our forum. This is by no means aimed at anyone in particular, we all have to try to remember that we are those human creatures, because we all get upset by stuff which might not have been said intentionally to hurt us. Please dont let us ruin such a wonderful place.
OK I have said my bit, i have had my serious few minutes (yes i can do it) now lets go back to having THE most enjoyable forum on the web. Where we get to view other work and enjoy it, and get to discuss techniques and allow the noobies like me to learn stuff in an entertaining and friendly atmostphere.
I am not trying to say any anyones point has not been valid, or that their hurt is not real, of course it is, but i just hate seeing people getting upset, and and i want u all to accept our differences and agree to disacgree on some things, .....................and i want world peace and a sash and a crown and a nice ball gown and pretty hair and and.......oh wait wrong stage
