Why does anyone write an opus, anyway? It seems like a very "drama queen" thing to do, in my opinion.
I agree, if I had a problem with it, I'd just walk away. I have done so at times. People take a lot of stuff in too personal a manner I think. The interaction here is no different than at any other type of board, or for that matter any group of people. I've seen people storm out of our church, when I was growing up, for example, over a perceived (or real) slight. This is no different.
