Dude, don't let the morons get you down. You don't have to read their posts or listen to them. The delete key is your friend ;-) I've been "guilty" of getting rather heated up myself (I should take my own advice )
For the most part I've found Geocachers to be among the most friendly (though rather vocal ;-) group of people I've ever been in contact with. And I find that I don't always have to agree with everyone (or vice-versa) to have a good time.
Don't be so hasty to hang up the GPS, let things die down awhile and see how you feel then.
TTFN,
