Don't take it to heart man. I see what you're saying. It's just a matter of appearance and first impressions, and first impressions mean everything. We took it the wrong way. People aren't going to like everything, and in your case it probably would hold true to most people on the site.
Although it seems like we were being jerks here, and we were, we usually aren't. This is actually a very clean, helpful, informative site and we all tend to get along well.
Sorry for implying you were a teenager, too.
