I must agree with Funchy. I haven't really noticed this much and it's ironica that you misinterpreted much of Funchy's post.
For example:
Quote:

When did I say I didn't want other people's suggestions? I never said that. I am very grateful for suggestions that people offer.

Funchy wasn't referring to you, he was referring to the forums as whole.

Now you are making many huge assumptions about me. How do you know exactly why I am frustrated? I knew this would sound condescending, that's why I said this may cause people to dislike me and would most likely offend people.

Are you serious? There's little to no assumptions being made. Your thread title is "Frustrated with experience on these forums" and you go on to tell us why. Even if you didn't explicitly say "I am frustrated because..." it's implicit that that's the reason you're frustrated.
To be honest it seems like this is almost entirely a problem on your end. You're the one making assumptions about people's intentions and claiming they're easy to discern when that's just not true. You can't claim to know if a post is heart-felt or not because you're just reading text. You're missing a lot in the way of nonverbal language like body language and tone. Maybe you could post some more examples from other threads to support your point but right now it seems a bit weak.
