A clique (pronounced klɪk) is an informal and restricted social group formed by a number of people who share common interests - formal social groups are referred to as societies or organizations. Cliques are most notably found amongst groups of teenagers, primarily in high schools and colleges, but also in other similar environments, such as the workplace.

Cliques also exist politically with much intrigue, such as ruling cliques. A complex series of military alliances between warlords in a civil war can form cliques, such as the Zhili clique in the history of the Republic of China.

Cliques at times have complex structures, and characteristics tend to differ between one another. However, one characteristic which is common to nearly all cliques is the existence of a defined power structure, generally comprised of a leader (or a few leaders), followers (refer to the article on leadership) and pariahs.

Is the M:NP forum a clique? I guess so...just like real life.

This is a very "clickish" forum here on the Org.

hahahahaha oh man

I heard it was this guy....

Sometimes I feel some people look down on others that don't belong on their "clique". I feel that sometimes when I post about Madonna, Kylie or even the j-pop stuff I like...

wha da fug?

I think there are clicks on every board including this one. I think that there is a problem with snobbery on this board. There is tons of diversity on this site. There are people from everywhere sharing al kindz of interests and experiences and I think we all get shortchanged when we arent open to the diversity of tastes and ideas that exists here. We have to know that our way is not the only way. What we think is great or terrible is not the end all be all. The sooner we recognize that, the better of this board will be. Alot of people dont even bother to post here anymore because of all the negativity and thats really a shame.

What it is, baby brah?! I missed them too. We were on a mission, huh? Word on the street is that they're in the lab cutting a new disc called "Nappy Jheri Delic". I read this in Rolling Stone yesterday. It confirms that o.g member and founder Meloh9 is on board with The Audience and blackguitaristz, all on guitars and handeling other instruments as well. O.G. member Paligap is on board. The band also features new members such as funkpill, and Spyz. In addition, the band has included a female member, MinnieG on backing vocals and just all around "Electric Ladyness" states blackguitaristz. "At first, I must admit that we were a little hesitant bringing a chick (Did he really use that word?!) on board. You know? But uh...Minnie is cool and she always understood where we were coming from."

U know what player? Just do your thing regardless of who "supports" u, u know? If u feel like posting or starting a thread, do it. Don't trip off of who's going to "get it". For all u know, u could be hipping folks to whatever it is that you're talking about. If they can't get with Kylie or JLo, then so what. A lot of folks can relate to what you're saying but they may have a hang up in showing u that. Especially if they don't like u, for whatever the reason. That's why u should just do your thing. Check out a cat like Vain. This dude can give a rat's ass about what folks on here think about him or his opinions. He's going to bring it regardless and that's how it should be. Just do your thing is all I'm saying.

exactly. music:non prince isn't the only clique forum of the org.

I dont see clique or groups a that bad of a thing. What is the point of being around with some group that you have little interest in?
