Mikaylasmummy, I'm so sorry you feel like this. I suspect I know which thread has upset you, and having read it through, I understand that such conflict can be unsettling if you are essentially a peacemaker, however I'd like to point out that certainly in that (rare) case and in yours, the conflict was caused by regular members jumping to the defense of a newbie who was probably being made to feel unwelcome.
We're a very protective bunch, and we are very grateful to new members who decide to post for the first time (we know it's a scary thing) as they keep the forum fresh and interesting. It tends, therefore to be our habit to try to distance ourselves from the opinions/comments of someone on the boards who is singling out a new (and urguably emotionally vulnerable in this case) member for a petty reason (such as say, their spelling).
Please don't leave sweetheart. You and I have PMed before and you're such a lovely person, I'd hate to see you leave because some of us (including me) can't keep our mouths shut when we think someone has been called on something unfairly.
