I like the Christmas tree but feel it could be placed somewhere that would not obstruct view of the entertainment. But it's only a month or so, so not too much deal with.
No, I think "bashing the OP" consists of implying the OP has no standing on which to complain because they are new to the board, or it's their first post which is assumed by some to be fakers/trolls trying to stir up trouble where there ain't any.

Both tactics make people feel like fourth-class commenters.
