^^^ I feel like the majority of LXA folks think that they own their forum. I don't know where that sentiment came from.

I've respectfully posted several times in the LXA forum and have always felt welcome.

Well good for you.

That is not the case at all. It is just the point when someone comes on a post to start problems.

Anyone as

said, everyone is always welcome unless they want to start problems and acuse people of things that are not true!

Would this be considered a true fact?

You can post unless I don't like what you say. If I don't like what I say I'll call you a liar.

Be befuddled?

While reaching for my Nomex and Kevlar:
I agree with several of the poster, in general, in regards to the "openness" of all of GC.

That said I do have to wonder:
1) Why is it we even have separate groups/sections for each GLO and subject topics?
2) Why are some threads which seem to fit a truly open group such as
Greek Chat or Chit Chat placed within a GLO's forum?
2) Why are some threads that seem to be best placed a dedicated forum
placed within open forums?

I really do not like going into other dedicated forums (like this one) nor would I like mine to have open ended threads with nothing to do with my group. We have enough problems with "posers" as it is.
Yes others have posted within it but only about dedicated forum matters.
And our Mod keeps tight control over forum.

I think what I am trying to point out that while the group in total is open, there seem to be rather good reasons to think just where one is going to post before one does. Dedicated vs Open.

Off to the bomb-proof.......

[Drolefille]

1) Because some topics are group specific, that doesn't mean that other members don't have things to add to the conversation. Many times we have more similarities than differences.
2) Because some topics are non-group specific.
3) Because some people choose poorly when making their thread.

It's the mod's discretion to maintain his or her forum. Once a thread is started, do not be surprised if non-members post in it. Particularly if it's a hot topic. Badge selling would be one of those. I suspect if someone posted about ritual collecting in a GLO specific forum there would also be much outside commenting. Some people feel more comfortable posting in others' forums, particularly since some forums are very welcoming, some people don't. That's your own personal preference and shouldn't be imposed on others.
