No sense in arguing. If there is no apology, no one will die or anything. However, a lot of respect will be lost by me and lots of others to certain individuals.

I agree with ZTAngel and the sentiments expressed by Alphagamdiva and Firecracker.

And I hope we don't see new user names coming on to mock them for expressing themselves.

Cliques come and go but this is the first time in the site's history that a named clique has developed a reputation for being mean and vindictive to such a degree that its generally perceived that way by the GC rank and file.

Take that however you want.

Guiltiness (talkin' 'bout guiltiness)
Pressed on their conscience. Oh yeah.
And they live their lives (they live their lives)
On false pretence everyday -
each and everyday. Yeah.

These are the big fish
Who always try to eat down the small fish,
just the small fish.
I tell you what: they would do anything
To materialize their every wish. Oh yeah-eah-eah-eah.

Say: Woe to the downpressors:
They'll eat the bread of sorrow!
Woe to the downpressors:
They'll eat the bread of sad tomorrow!
Woe to the downpressors:
They'll eat the bread of sorrow!
Oh, yeah-eah! Oh, yeah-eah-eah-eah!

Guiltiness
Pressed on their conscience. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
These are the big fish
Who always try to eat down the small fish,
just the small fish.

I tell you what: they would do anything
To materialize their every wish. Oh, yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah.

But: Woe to the downpressors:
They'll eat the bread of sorrow!
Woe to the downpressors:
They'll eat the bread of sad tomorrow!
Woe to the downpressors:
They'll eat the bread of sad tomorrow!
Oh, yeah-eah! Oh yeah-e-e-e-e-e!

Guiltiness. Oh yeah. Ah!
They'll eat the bread of sorrow everyday.

Which is something you don't know how to do.

I don't post all that often, but I will here, if only for the reason that I know that there are other people who will read this thread and agree that there is a huge problem, but won't post.


I agree that people have the right to post in a public forum. However, the immature and insensitive posts are polluting an otherwise great website. Recently, one has to wade through garbage to find a post worth reading.


This happened before on another forum site that I go to and, for a little while, they had a public alter-checker, so that everyone who was posting under multiple names from the same IP address could be outed. Wouldn't THAT be interesting to see...

Maybe being in a little internet clique gives people a perception of power or acceptance, or maybe they are just having fun - who knows. But I would personally prefer if people kept their random "drive by" posts in the PM's instead of putting them out on the boards.

Just my $.02

To be completely honest....as I've been reading this thread all I have seen is a bunch of useless bitching and arguing. All I have to say is amen to ZTAngel and everyone else who spoke their mind. I never say much and sometimes wish that I would be "accepted" into some of these "cliques" but now after reading this thread....I would rather stay in the shadows and post on the other boards that matter.....

Just a glimpse into the teacher in me....but don't you remember in elementary school when they taught us the Golden Rule....well it might be helpful in this situation.

Treat others as you want to be treated.

That is all....

Here's the problem with drive-by posts: they are hardly limited to one person, or one group of people on the boards. And to me, before the "drive-by" posts came along, I was having trouble finding stuff to respond to on the boards. There are plenty of posts on GC that I don't like -- people TMI-ing about their sex lives, the idiots who inject drama into every single thread about race, any post that contains the word "sailing" -- but that's tough luck. GC wasn't designed for me and so I have to put up with a lot of isht on here that I don't like. John is the only one who has any real jurisdiction over what stays up on these boards, and since he hasn't talked to any of us about the content, I don't see any reason to stop.

You can complain to us about how mean we are, which I think is relevant to the whole board (although hardly valid, as I pointed out before). But you can't complain about pointless posts, since they are ALL OVER the board.


And also, James? Hi pot, meet kettle.


I can't believe I got sucked back into the tornado of unfun that is this thread. I'm going back to my business meeting.

ETA: Most of us are not mods . . . the ignore button is there for a reason.

Out of hand can get out of mind!

So this is a Funny Thread?

It gets out of hand, immature and inane!

Just by the Name of it, If I was the Mod on this thread, there would have been one post and then deleted!

There is fun and then, there is vindicitiveness by some whinny little people who continually cry wolf or foul when they do not get their way.

Thank you one and all for getting people to leave GC and scaring New Members off of The G C Site.

Wax on, Wax Off!
