One should stand on their own merit. Are you going to deny there is no clique and mop mentality here?

I'm kind of curious. Once is a typo. Several times is intentional. Why do you keep typing it out as the "mop" mentality? Is it your own personal dig or something?

If I am understanding you correctly, I happen to think I am one of the WORST people to discuss the subject. I suppose, a person would have to say that I had an "in" when I first got introduced to this joint. I knew more than fifty people at real life events before I even bothered to fill out the profile.

Sorry to disappoint, but no, I don't see it as a clique. Yeah, I'm going to admit that I probably kind of suck for just doing what I do, but I happen to think that most people without an actual health disability can do the same thing.

We have different points of view, that's all. For what it's worth, five years ago, if you would have asked me what people were doing "wrong" around this place, I'd have told you that it was the inability to meet and befriend other people here. It's not that difficult of an obstacle to overcome.

Yet, it's more than that. This so-called clique, family, or friendship business? I just don't understand why it should affect anybody else. I can assure you, no matter how many people you think *like* me, I can point you to just as many people who absolutely LOATHE me, would probably throw a party if I never posted again, etc, etc.

Even with all of my advantages, I just don't *get* why this concept of the clique bothers people. My friends or lack of friends shouldn't disturb anybody in the least. It might not be groovy with some, but it's not the backbone of my unadulterated opinion. Whether you like me or not doesn't change that.

It's probably my ambivalence of other people's opinions that made me a part of the so-called clique in the first place.

While I agree that the idea of suggesting the clown is even close to Obama on class and dignity is laughable. And I would much rather have a president who isn't afraid to bow and show respect. Bosco is spot on the troll comment. It added nothing and only showed how much he affects some posters here.

Are you accusing me of being a troll?

Bosco is an extremely gifted troll.

His great sucking need for attention has transformed him into a poster who uses provocative ignorance to draw you in, and a completely unintimidating intellect to keep the arguments going... and you know he won't ignore a challenge, because the more attention he receives, the more he likes it. Without people trolling each other, I can't imagine this forum would exist much longer.

You can't really resist arguing with him because he's just so blatantly, absurdly wrong that you can't resist correcting him and aren't even a little bit worried about losing the argument. But then it just keeps going and going, becoming more and more unfocused and inane, and when you give up, nothing has been accomplished... and you know that he thinks he has won.

I don't think there is a single political/religious forum on the internet that isn't like this... the players are nearly identical in each case and the arguments are almost always the same. This isn't the kind of forum that could ever exist without trolls... so pointing out that someone is 'getting to you' is pretty much the highest compliment that can be paid.

Make a post, be called a faggot... Make a post, be called a faggot

Yea, no. This place is kinda unique in its moderation, or lack thereof

quote:

ORIGINAL: heavyblinker
But it always seems that as soon as moderation disappears, the forum destroyers arrive-- they can't resist, their karma compels them-- and this legion of unholy trolls brings forth an apocalyptic fury, initiating a mass-exodus as the forum spirals into a great dysfunctional inferno... and it burns and burns, reaching a point where the return of moderation would only destroy the destroyers, leaving nothing but an eerie, joyless wasteland that no one ever visits.

I compared your questioning if I am man enough, or not man enough or whatever, that trollish insult, to mnottertroll constantly suggesting on practically every post he makes that everyone on the right is a 'faggot' (cockgargler, nutsucker, or whatever, same thing)

Other than that, no. Why do you ask

Simply because it perplexes me a great deal.

You are aware that I'm a Republican, right? Voted for Reagan and everything.

I suppose you are right. I shouldn't have said "man enough," as though it was a gender thing. In this, I apologize.

Kind of weird, I suppose. The mix of the old and the new. I can assure you that if I ever got audience in Queen Elizabeth II's court, I'd powder my nose, wear the dress, and put on the shoes that would be hell on my arches.

At the same time, I'd do it from the other end of the scale, too.

If you were ever to invite me into your home, I consider myself your guest. Not huge on my part if I'm supposed to wipe my feet on the mat before entering or supposed to show up to dinner at 7:00. If tea is at 3:00, I'll be there at 2:59 with a formal napkin on my lap.

I might be judging too harshly. I think Trump lacks social graces. I'd be quite amused to watch the pompous Trump of today as the same boy who went to his grandmother's house as a kid.
