am i the only one who notices that SOME of you guys gang up on newbies? whether it be for perceived rudeness toward a friend (in which case there is a double standard because there is no backlash when the experienced minglers are rude to newbies) or because they posted a thread that may have been done before many times but is new to them... the reasons vary but i've noticed an air of condescension sometimes... just wondering what you guys thought... maybe i'm crazy? ![]() (i'm not sure if this thread is against the rules, if it is i apologize) Oh no, you didnt? you just told us we have no life? Oh no. you gone done it now. (get him!) that was EXACTLY my first thought when i read that ![]() |

Here's one for you poor newcomers who aren't feeling the love, I forget who wrote it unfortunately. If you can keep your head when all around you, lose what's thiers and blame it on you, if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, I have always found these words of wisdom quite enlightening when judged by lesser men. I believe it's Kipling. I dig Kipling If by Rudyard Kipling If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too: If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream---and not make dreams your master; If you can think---and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same:. If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings, And never breathe a word about your loss: If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings---nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much: If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And---which is more---you'll be a Man, my son! By any chance could you quote, and it's been quite a while, since college so I could be wrong, but I believe it's " The Love Song of Alfred J. Prussock" Please quote it. My faculties are too diminished to find it and quote it here, although I think everyone would enjoy it. |

sometimes the sarcasm, condescension and mockery isn't so overt that it clearly breaks any rules. ![]() And that's exactly what people like. There are some who just have to be rude to new people, even if the new person hasn't done anything wrong. But,there are many of us who are not like that. |

None of us are like that. At least we won't admit it.

Most people who sign up just figure out about those,(those who gang up on others) they got nothing better to do but to hang around on mingle all day to harass others for for their own entertainment.
