I've had a couple of big beefs on LJ, never started by me, and one even lost me someone I thought was a good friend (but obviously wasnt). This place can get nasty and people's claws can really come out. The crazy part is its usually about the most ridiculous stuff on the planet like fandom and such.

Things that are supposed to be fun quickly escalate to unbearable with the tapping of some keys. But that's the problem with the web, all you need is a computer to get in.
