I do take the time to orgnote peeps I don't know if they say something that strikes me.... but I have a watch and see policy with accts I don't recognize or act inconsitent.
You are so awesome.
Sinister I came to recognize you back in your commedy days with Starkitty... used to read and laugh my ass off.... You remaind consistent and I started interacting.... Sometimes I think people come here with to many needs to be met..... but then it is very easy for me to socialize and so my opinion is tainted. I will say some of these peeps have known each other 7 and more years....that doesn't make them cliquish...it makes them old friends who identify. You can hardly expect to walk up to an old family and immediatly feel at home. Just breathe.... I came here in 2001. I remember RD Hull asking me who I really was. Sd did, too. I felt kinda 'alone' but I just found my hook in the non-Prince forum. It's still my favorite part of this place. I was immiediately embraced by people there. | |

GangstaFam said: HamsterHuey said: Org's what you make it.
I got faked on by people when I got here, so I decided not to take it too seriously after that. Of the people I befriended, some are still here, others aren't. Of the newbies, some I will like, some I won't. Org's what you make it. What he said. Truth is, My Org©®™ has changed significantly over the years. I got to know the core of what some call 'clique' in the chat room when I first joined. I had never been in a chat room before and was lured into the glamour of it, but it proved a bit shallow. Then I moved over to General Discussion. Now I do still spend some time there, but I also love my Music; Non-Prince buddies. To me, My Org©®™ non consists of scaring Isten onto Yahoo Messenger, sharing music with sweet friends and keeping up on life in general. Oh, and of course mooning Natisse in internet cafe's. And I miss the Org Wine Club©®™ lots... | |

If anything, I think the Org is friendlier than it used to be, due to the moderation style.
When there was just one main moderator taking care of most things (with 2 or 3 others chiming in once in a blue moon), there seemed to be far more tolerance of flaming, baiting, personal insults masked as innocent little comments, etc. Sure, Org relationships change/evolve--as they should--just as our needs for companionship change in the "real world". | |

It can be. Just like any small community, though, there's going to be conflict between a few. Someone new moves into the small town, and they're treated like outsiders until they've been there for a while. The process may not be right, but it's what invariably happens a good deal of the time. | |

I agree with all those who say it's what you bring to it.
Being new to the whole internet thing, this is the only discussion site I log onto (time restrictions and all). Using simple logic & talking to friends & family who have more experience on the 'net before I began logging on, I sorta figgered that there are certains things to expect. Cliques, differences in opinions, misinterpretations of posts, losta laughing/crying, etc. I expect that it will take some time before others & myself get comfortable with ...uh....each... Daa-haAAAMMMn! Who farted?! | |

retina said: Was it ever genuinely friendly? Most of the so-called "friendly" comments on here are the result of cliques defending its members, asskissing, people trying to get into each other's pants and plain old fear of conflict. There are moments of true friendliness though, in which cases it's very touching. But those moments are quite rare.
I can't believe muthas are actually gettin' ass outta this Seems alright to me. Though I'm here all the gat dayum time I stay on the periphery, that's where I'm cozy And the Org is pretty cliqueish but it's kind of inevitable, not a bad thing at all | |

I think it was friendly once but that was a long time ago.
It has its moments now, where people come together and support one another. I like that side to the Org. On the whole, though, I think it's become santised and less friendly over time. | |

Said right. People change. The Org is always pretty the same; it's purple-ish up to the degree it makes me nauseous sometimes. It's a site that times out alot. It's breaking up, but we still love the opportunity to, well, yes, to try to get in someone's pants. LoL. I never tried to get out of that one... | |

Well I know I, for one, am friendlier than I used to be. That's been scientifically proven in laboratories. Most people here are amiable enough, at the very least, many are very friendly, and some are friendly to the point of random orgnoted macro photographs of ambiguous areas of flesh. | |
