MODERATORS
I mean its just not common to private chat, I guess it could be interpreted as not mean, but still kinda of uncalled for
I mean this in no insult to you, but college students are basically bigger high school students. They rarely consider how they make others feel. I wouldn’t mind it no matter how you take it. On campus I’m often surprised how undergrads act to one another.
Its not an insult, I would agree that I was naive/too sensitive, it was just unexpected and bummer that I wasn't prepared for in a more grown up environment (maybe this is the correct term)?
I think you were maybe expecting a more grown up environment and you didn't get one. I'm a Phd Candidate and people can still be so random in how they speak to others. I too can easily get annoyed at such. Maybe we are both sensitive, but others rarely considers how they speak affects those around them.
