Anyone else notice the increase in CC members who are kind of ..'jerks'?

What happened to the really nice supportive people who didn't make fun of others? I have been reading more and more posts where certain Calorie Count members spend more time making fun of other members comments, questions, or concerns rather than being helpful and supportive. Really what is the point in even adding an question, opinion or statement when it's going to be cut down by some negative person. Anyone else notice this fast growing trend? It really upsets me in a way that we are supposed to be helping one another whether it be through sharing the things that we have learned or by simply showing some support. 

So please next time you think of cutting someone down or making a 'joke' at there expense think about how you would feel if someone did that to you.

Thanks for reading my little 'rant'

Have a fabulous evening : )

Absurd.  There are no jerks on the internet.

 Prove it, *sshole.

Everyone is a wonderful person full of happy fuzzy feelings and words of encouragement!  Hope!  Love!  Puppies!  Rainbows!  0 calorie chocolate!  Hooray fantasy world!

Meh, not really an increase.  Since I've been here I'd say there's been about the same amount of jerks. There's actually a little group of them, almost like a little jerk gang. I just sort of ignore them most of the time.

Constructive criticism is one thing, but the people who post something completely off topic just to take a jab at the original poster...those are the ones that get to me.

Sometimes the original poster will run away from the thread, leaving the jerks to stroke each others ego's until the thread eventually dies.

You get used to it.
