Welcome

 * I thank you very much. I will follow some of these links to learn more about the way that I can work here with Wikipedia while I am going to college in the U.S.  Really I find most people seem friendly here. Only seen some of the unfriendly talking on talk pages too. ElectraGrrl (talk) 14:52, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, I've been editing 2 years and not come across much unfriendliness - most comes from vandals I revert/warn - however most of the rest probably comes from peoples frustration, either from Wikipedia or often real life. So often its good to try to break that frustration, by being extra considerate how things are worded, trying to find compromises, just posting friendly messages to people. I assume the unfriendly pages you run into where on Talk:Conspiracy theory, Talk:Agent Orange and similar. I avoid certain topics that have very polarised views as they are the most frustrating and thus unfriendly - if you try to edit certain subjects you will find more unfriendliness, so you have to decided if its worth it. It's not worth letting the conflicts on a few subjects put you off editing happily of the other 99.9% of Wikpeidia. Subjects I'm generally avoid for this reason are: Israel/Palestine conflict; Feminism/Sexual politics; Gun Control; Conspiracies; Pseudoscience. However some people get great satisfaction in resolving the difficult issues. You just have to find out what you like doing and rememberer that most people here are friendly, so don't let the other gets you down. All the best KylieTastic (talk) 16:33, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
 * ElectraGrrl, I think that has given you some excellent advice. Cullen328   Let's discuss it  19:51, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

A kitten for you!
You're very, very polite question, "Why do people seem not so nice here?," made me laugh. Despite what anyone else says, I don't believe there is anyway to create a nice environment here on Wikipedia. It's uncivil, and flows from the top down. If you're lucky you'll become a Wikignome. And if you do stick around, I'll help, but this environment isn't really my thing either so who knows how long I'll last! Cheers!

 * Are you serious? You don't think there is a way to create a Wikipedia where people treat each other with respect? I don't believe this nihilism. I know it would be possible with a community who cares about making a respectful place. Thanks for he kitten. ElectraGrrl (talk) 07:17, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
 * It is not very nice to call other people "snotty". Cullen328  Let's discuss it  03:56, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Robert McClenon. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Talk:Pyriproxyfen that didn't seem very civil. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:37, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
