Dear Noa,
I was thinking of a collage of individuals, most of whom are not even on this list. The "whiney newbie" shows up on lists devoted to photography, bicycling, cats, even growing bamboo! There's certainly nothing unique going on here at Psycho-Social-Babble when it comes to the quirks of group dynamics on electronic bulletin boards.
I haven't been following the most recent threads, so I actually don't know which story or person you're talking about. If my parody was close to fact at any point, it's because it plays out over and over again, month after month, with different actors.
However -- I should admit that I WAS thinking of YOU when I wrote the first reply and signed it "Ark." I thought it was pretty good parody.
You are the soul of goodness and tolerance, Noa, a person of infinite patience. I'm glad you're here.
Best wishes,
Mark H.
