Re: What is the etymology of your moniker?
Arakiel, I'd hate to have something as minor as this put send you away from the forums. For here we have some of the most tolerate, well-informed, and just plain decent people I have ever had the pleasure of talking to.
However, it is definitely true that there are some subjects that some people find offensive. Personally, I don't think I have many, but a lot of people with mental illnesses find it to be a touchy subject. Those who do not suffer from them don't understand it. I know that I didn't until recently, when I finally had to admit to myself that I had one. I dont' mind if people make jokes about it, seriously. But some people do mind, and we all have to respect that. I'm not saying don't make a joke, but simply know that if you do, some people may correct you, or tell you it was offensive. However, that will very rarely happen around here especially, and don't take it personally.
