It's not an attack, if our posts are consider an attack, then you also did your share of attacking..
Like the case with another female member on the forum previously (bl**jeansla*y), we are just asking that if you want everyone to agree with you, give us facts and figures to quantify your theory
Other members spotted conflicting post from you and voice it out, that's all that I read, I don't know where the attack came from.....

Well put, so let's have this part of the bickering end here. I am seeing too many threads reduced to senseless and off topics back-and-forths, and I am seeing the same names come up again and again. I would rather temp-ban obnoxious posters than close otherwise interesting threads, and I will if these interactions keep up.

This is pretty normal. A home is not a social gathering place in Japan for adults for the most part. If you want to meet a friend you schedule a time and a place (usually outside at a cafe or restaurant or wherever) and that's where you socialize.
Just as you wouldn't want someone to enter your home without knocking, a Japanese person would not want you visiting her home without invitation.
