Amanda,
you are an asset to this board, with your information and knowledge. It would be a shame for you to leave. Just know that most people who attack others are jealous of them in some manner. Jealous that you actually live here, live the dream, are a successful and knowledgeable woman, are beautiful, etc... try to brush it off and know that it is because you are better than them in their mind that they attack you.
For the 1-2 that attack you, there are hundreds of us that appreciate you.
