99% of the time when someone is ranting and raving about "mainstream physics rejecting them and driving them away" it's because that person is an absolute nutter with more ego than brains.

I am not at all involved in physics in an academic level, but I have spent a lot of time on academic message boards and forums, people really want to help each other and contribute to our collective understanding of the world. The only people who get driven off are people who don't share this collaborative attitude and think their own ideas are so special and amazing that everyone else is just jealous of them.
