[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] As a long time reader of this board, there is sadly a lot of truth to this. I know friends who left Chicago (weather, issue with public schools), deep south (weather, lack of culture), NYC (too expensive). When they were contemplating the relocation their local community were by and large understanding/sympathetic. They recognize no place is perfect. But on this board? Any time you there is a "I hate it here and want to leave" you are told you are the problem. Go get therapy.[/quote] You and others in this thread are conflating DMV residents with DCUM. IRL, most people in the DMV readily admit the faults of the DMV (traffic, the "swamp", politicians, etc). On an anonymous online forum, otherwise normal people become vicious. This is no surprise -- there's a good body of research that shows how anonymity erodes empathy. As users here, you just shouldn't expect the same level of understanding/sympathy you'd receive from an IRL community. [/quote]
