I just posted something elsewhere that seems to have really offended someone. I was merely relating my experience of something and yet somehow elicited someone's ire. I enjoy most of the discussion- fun or serious- on the PJ forum but two things I don't understand:

1) Why do people so often get defensive and bite back when they read something they don't agree with? I'm not talking about when someone presents a counter arguement, I mean just being attacking in response.

2) Why is there so much agressive posting here on the PJ forum? Whenever I see an attack post I think- isn't this counter to the Pearl Jam vibe in general? I've seen many posts here that one might expect to see on, say, a Ted Nugent forum but not here.

Throw Down Your Arms.

Love and Only Love.

People are mean because they can be on the internet.
They wouldn't treat you like that in person. Unhappy people attack others
and they do so to make others unhappy.

But there a lot of really loving people here to counter all that,
the majority of PJ fans are loving and respectful ...
our OP great example, sincere and kind hearted.
She was very sorry as you are for any misunderstandings,
big hearted people, most PJ fans are, as they should be considering who they love...

the best band and group of men out there! Pearl Jam!!

Nicely said, Pandora. I suppose many of the negative or attacking posts are made by people who get their kicks that way. Generally, I pretty much just ignore that kind of immature behavior--I just don't get it, that's all. But thanks for reminding me to focus on the fact that most people here really are nice folks who come here for good reasons!


Peace,

Brian
