MeezDiscreet, that is bulljive! I will not allow you or anyone else to use that as a easy (and weak) excuse regarding the numerous legitimate issues I have made regarding NPHC politics and policies here on GC through the years.
I would say no more than 3% of all posts that I have made since I have logged on GC has had any game show references on them. And yes, they are all in fun and are supposed to be amusing (thanx msn4med) b/c it is a visual extension of my true personality.
If we were to be perfectly honest with ourselves, the dismissive remarks are primarily due to no one wanting to own up to their org's shortcomings and inadequacies. NO org is infallible, and when an "outsider" objectively tells it like it is, folk get defensive. That is probably the biggest reason why I haven't joined an NPHC org, I don't want to wear rose-colored glasses.
BTW, PHDiva, I also give you a hearty welcome to GC and thank you so much for your insightful and well-thought out points.
