People always complain about getting rude on FS comments for their opinions/secrets, but never specify what they're about... Makes it hard to sympathize.

I don't think it's "people." More like one person. Maybe two? They're always on about FS being mean or horrible people and accusing all of us of being "rude to everybody" but everyone else can see that's factually untrue.

All it really says is that they don't care about other people's threads. Only their own matter. Other people being nice to each other is irrelevant; OP is the main character and if we don't support OP then we're nasty people that love to be negative and we're the problem, even if, quite literally, every other thread today is positive.

It makes no sense, but it's that or believe that maybe they themselves are the problem and they don't seem the type that's open to that idea.

AYRT [and whoops, I didn't notice the huge typos in my post until after I sent it. TBF it was very early in the morning, heh.]

"I don't think it's "people." More like one person. Maybe two?"

I'm willing to bet it's a small handful of different people, or at least 2 or 3 persistent people who constantly mope about how F!S is an "echo chamber" that claims every desisting opinion is trolling or bait, unlike "the good old days" or whatever. I always try to ask these anons how were the old days different and what opinions/secrets they post that cause such backlash and I get no answer. I can't help but to assume it's purposely inflammatory type stuff, since I see polite disagreement all the time on other subjects and fandoms. There's always a specific anon with a pet issue that comes up, but there's always more people telling them to shut up.

"All it really says is that they don't care about other people's threads. Only their own matter.

Yep, exactly. I've submitted some secrets that were strange or unpopular opinions, and the worst that happened is it got no comments because the fandom itself was too obscure.
