How do you feel when a Fluther neophyte publicly announces they are leaving?

Recently, the collective has taken it on the chin from newcomers who have called us things ranging from “The uninformed criticism, dissing and disrespect is why I generally avoid online foums (sic) and this feels like more of the same at first glance. Charming.” to “obviously this is not the place for open-minded discussion, so I will leave, never to bother you again with my silly responses.” and “this is not the place for me. Goodbye.”

Are we unwelcoming or are these isolated instances in which the newcomer did not give the site a chance or jumped in too strong at the beginning?
