I've noticed that quite possibly the worst thing you can do on Gaia, or the majority of the internet for that matter, is say something about how you're gonna be doing something you're afraid of. You'll get about half the people saying s**t like "U R SCROOD", and the other half being helpful.
For example, there was the thread you all may have seen earlier about some guy flying to London (lol thread inspirationz). People posting s**t about bombs, crashes, any problem you could think of. One person even found a nice, pretty picture of a crashed plain. ;D
Of course, in such situations, I'm of no help. I'll admit to having actually antagonizing with the rest of the douches. I posted various things about terrorists and crashing in the ocean that were definitely of no moral support.
