That is an interesting comment. To me TE is anything but cruel. Its very unusual to see a cruel or disrespectful post here, its part of the culture. Obviously I am an extrovert so while I can't understand how you feel from direct experience, I can say participate how ever is comfortable for you, but don't not post because you are afraid of cruel treatment.
