I agree that things can feel extremely personally attacking when things go certain ways around here. I've brought it up myself, I think it probably affected some of my activity but I couldn't say for sure.
I think one of the major factors in how personal it can feel around here is also that you genuinely fall in love with the place. This then results in it really fucking hurting when it feels like a place you love is lashing out at you and hard.
I use a lot of social media and I've never felt as negative as I have done in those few incidents where I felt personally attacked by a large number of people on a place I love.
I don't know how to solve this particular problem but wanted to say I agree. Disagreements and struggle sessions feel and turn that way particularly often.
Good post.
