I always wanted to make a line of packaged foods whose tag line was "made just like you could make if you stopped being lazy and bought some ingredients instead of cans." Then put a recipe on the package for the same thing you're buying.

People trying to better themselves and control what they eat is a good thing.
This is true. However, fad diets are rarely about bettering yourself and tend to be either a waste of time (time that could be spent actually bettering yourself) or actively detrimental (e.g. the cabbage soup diet, or high meat).

Also there's a lot of people here in the food/medical industry, and saying "My friend had a stomach ache so he went to the doctor and found out he has celiac disease, so he's eating gluten free. I have a stomach ache now, so obviously I have celiac too and will feel better if I go gluten-free!" and expecting niceties in here is kind of like going into SH/SC and saying "I downloaded speedycomputer.exe and ran it as admin, what can I do to make my computer from 2005 super fast?" and expecting kindness.

But why are we even having that conversation in the first place? Someone came in and asked a question about avoiding gluten, and then had to spend several big posts proving that they actually have a reason for avoiding gluten. A while back, I said something about reducing saturated fat in my diet, and ended up giving my medical history to shut up someone who kept insisting that saturated fat is good for me. That's lovely.
People want to have a complete picture before they give an answer. If you want to just throw out a question with no context and get answers from people who don't need/want a complete picture before giving an answer, there's sites for that. But on this forum people like to know as much as possible before answering, because "how do I lower my saturated fat intake?" for example is not a question one can answer without knowing what you're eating currently. Additionally, if you have a specific reason to lower your sat fat intake, knowing that reason will let people give you additional tips and tricks related to that end goal.

We're not intentionally being lovely, we're trying to get a complete picture for your benefit. Getting mad about people wanting more info so they can help you better is lovely.

Basically, everyone has to decide who they trust when it comes to making diet decisions, and GWS posters with funny names are never going to rank that high, so why play food police? You're probably not going to change anyone's mind, and you probably will scare people away.
Okay here's an honest question or three: Why are GWS posters any less trustworthy than the first hit on google, or the morning show host you only watch because she has huge tits? We have a lot of people here who are professionals in the food and/or science industries. They know their poo poo.

And why shouldn't we ask "hey are you following that diet because a doctor told you or because you read it on dietz4u.com?" Honestly, if being asked questioned about your choices is going to scare you away from a forum, then you should probably reexamine those choices and why you made them. You should be ready to defend your opinions and choices at any time, not just in GWS. This isn't a massive task, it just requires a little metacognition.

Lastly, I find your "it probably won't have an effect so never try to change anyone's mind" to be rather insulting. I'd rather risk offending people at the chance to educate them and lead them to a better understanding and a more informed decision than lay down and say "well it might not work so I'm not gonna do it." So yes, we might scare some people off, but those people are the kind of folk who think Sandra Lee is an amazing cook and refuse to hear anything to the contrary.

As I understand it, you can gain or drop allergies at any time. It's okay though, we can be non-wine drinking buddies (I get a migraine whenever I have any amount of any wine).

Sadly I know a lot of people who feel this way, except it extends into "spices? Why should I pay $4 for a tube of spices when it all goes into the toilet eventually? I can buy myself a pack of hot dogs AND a loaf of wonderbread for that!" And then they go buy nothing but hot dogs and pizza rolls. :(
