One thing you have learned from the org...

I have learned that if I complain about something physical that Dan will use his photoshop skills to put things into perspective with one photo.

I've learned that certain orgers will be assholes over any topic that they don't even have to respond to.

What I've learned is how stupid people are when it comes to Prince [& obsessed]...

Only controversial threads get any real response...

If you're not either hated or liked on Prince.org, your doing something wrong....

Take nothing serious & try to read through [mostly] all the comments before you respond...

A lot of people need to leave sarcasm alone!

So, pretty much what everyone else has said so far.... biggrin

Btw, I know this is more than one thing, but another thing I've learned is that [almost] no one follows the rules to any thread whatsoever... lol

  • I've learned that it's better to get up and walk away from the computer than to get wrapped up in caring about what the people who "live inside of it" think. crash
  • I've also learned that some people think that what they like or dislike is LAW, and that their opinions should be shared by everyone... rolleyes
  • Plus, I've learned that there are people who actually think that buying Prince's music makes them the Supreme Ruler of his life: who he dates, how he worships, who his friends are, what he plays in concert, and what else he should record. ohgoon
  • Finally, I've learned that month-long breaks from this place are therapeutic. cloud9

-The trolls are not fed, which is a very positive thing

-You can find anything: music snobs, pop lovers, biggest Prince fans, jaded Prince fans, people from the US, Europe, Asia, etc.

-The org can be a very mean place, which is challenging ... evillol

I have learned....

Anal douching is a MUST if you are a bottom..

That there is more rasicm and hatred alive today than I thought.. Be it against blacks or whites... This is something I dont encounter in my real life and i have been shocked and appaled by quite a few people here...

I have learned so many different things from people all over the WORLD! Which is so cool to me because I love hearing about different regions and cultures and how people live, be it across the ocean or just a few states away!

I have also learned to stay out of Politics and religion and music and more forums! lol

I also have found people who are like me! Growing up in a small midwestern town there are not alot of Prince fans! lol Heck, I have never met another person until the org that had musically tastes as diverse and plentiful as mine! Here at the org I can name a group and people are like, Ya, I know them! Back here, I get this face neutral So it has been so much fun to me sharing not only my love for Prince's music, but my love for music in general!!

The GD forum has a clear structure

The other main forums of the org (Prince Forum, Music & More, P&R) are more anarchic or, better said, every orger there is her/his own Queen/King, but the GD forum reminds me of the ancient Roman Republic:

- there's a Senate (lobby) formed, perhaps rightfully, by orgers (patricians) who have been here for more than 9-10 years or even since the late-90's. Then there are the equites, reasonably popular orgers who created their accounts during the Musicology/3121 era and who are councious (perhaps subcounciously) of the existence of this Senate and try to be good friends with it, perhaps even acquiring the title of patrician conscriptus in due time,

and finally there is the plebs, formed by recent (or maverick / unpopular) orgers which their opinion doesn't count that much (or at all).

If you want a successful, 5-page thread on the GD forum, you BETTER have the previous blessing/approval/support of the Senate...

the mods are Jupiter, Mars, Ceres, Minerva, etc

thankfully, there are no slaves here

lol
