 There are a lot of reasons why we might close a PR, and most of them have nothing to do with you. It might be because:

 In short: we don't hate you, and we aren't trying to be mean. We know how much work goes into a PR, and we're grateful you chose to spend your time on our project. Even if a PR gets closed, we'd still love to have you around the community!
