I think the main problem with some of your writing is that it can come off as too whimsical in nature; more like poetry than what is appropriate for a situation. When this happens, it can become confusing for someone who is trying to understand what was written.
I think a good example of this is in the text you wrote here
Like... OK. I did say in a thread a bit ago about being more honest with people, that I think by now the more long-term members should maybe be able to be more direct with each other. Pray tell - what does FancyMancy need to be told? I promise I won't send you out to be basted (namely because there's only enough stock in that one baster for one use). Yeah - you have no idea what I'm on about. It's a joke. Weekend, Sunday, feeding the trolls, Sunday roast, Fun day which rhymes - sending to Turkey the country like a beach with no water - a very hot place, turkey the food, basting, no water but not being too cruel so giving some basting stock... Maybe it's too subtle a type of humour for everyone on here, but I don't care. Get used to it, figure it out, or get over it. Better yet - do as everyone else does; ignore it and consider FancyMancy the local clown. Don't forget to tip me after the performance.
The portion that I highlighted, in particular, is where it becomes harder to follow your writing. It's not that I cannot follow what you are saying, but it feels like I am trying to follow someone's colorful thoughts, rather than read a message from you.
At the same time, I have seen other posts by you that seemed fine as well. I think this is a situation where you have to choose what writing style is appropriate. Perhaps for you, this could come off as a more boring way of communicating, but sometimes that is necessary for legibility.
That is why Outlaw likened your posts to an Asylum patient. It is not that you are actually crazy, rather sometimes the writing can come off as a little too ungrounded at times.
At the same time, this doesn't make you deserving of actual hate or anything. I think it is just a matter of thinking about the functionality of your text, rather than the artistic flair or wordplay. In certain situations, it is more important to convey concise "data" than paint a whole picture, if that makes sense.
