"Glad to see you go. Hope you never come back. You are obviously better suited to other forums, passionless forums, where your opinions are never challenged. Why don't you start your own forum and only allow yourself to post.
But I do hope your tender feelings heal within the next 4 or 5 years. Poor baby."
I haven't been here as long as most people, but I'd suggest that the above post is a wonderful example of why the guy's leaving. It's obnoxious, dismissive and it demonstrates that some people can't distinguish between challenging a position and denigrating the person who holds that opposing position. Nor do they understand that there's a real difference between being passionate and being rude. In short, they're of the same ilk as DU posters.

Good post, Mona....
What position is there to challenge? He's gone. He gets a reaction to his leaving, not his positions.
