The problem here is that Nocturnal Stalker is up against a group of elitists who've been conditioned by their experiences to form cliques and clubs designed to keep people out. And fundamentally, their entire rationale is trying to protect that.
The position being put forward by LadyPact and others is insufferable elitism. That all worthwhile topics have already been discussed and if anybody new wishes to discuss them, then they can just fuck right off, because the INFORMATION they require can be found using the search function.
That attitude is so appallingly ignorant when it comes to human understanding that I fully question whether the individual responsible has the insight to call themselves 'dominant'.
People inhabit a discussion forum because they seek interplay. If someone wants information, Google will find it for them. Very effectively. People inhabit forums because they seek discussion with others who are like minded. In this forum, however we find a bunch of cliquey self-appointed oligarchs who think they have the right to dictate what people discuss in these forums and how they discuss it.
Get the fuck over yourselves.
You - yes, even you - Lord Mysterio WankerTrousers and Lady AllMenWorshipMe were once newbies. You - yes, you - were probably welcomed into forums much like these or real life groups in which people were actually friendly and didn't scream "Use the search function". Tell me LadyPact - since you're so fond of promoting munch groups - how often does someone ask you a question in real life and you scream "Google it" or "Read a book!" at them? Tell me, inquiring minds want to know. I want to know if you're as rude and arrogant in real life as you present yourself on this forum.
Here's a guide for all you old-timers who are so distressed when a newbie asks a question. For you people who feel your time is so fucking valuable that it's an offense for newbies to cause you to waste precious seconds reading their postings.
1) Don't. Fucking. Post.
2) Read. Something. Else.
Using this simple 2-step method, you can be spared the intolerable pain of having to participate in a thread which doesn't arouse your interest. I suggest you whining maggots who make newbies feel so unwelcome consider the virtue of such an approach. Alternatively, you could just harden the fuck up.
Precisely.
To add on to what Awareness said, the cliques are more parasitic than anything. Everybody wants to impress everybody and I knew full well that by bullheading into this I was really opening myself to being ripped to shreds but I stand by what I say because unlike many people here I only press an issue if I'm right. You can throw around all the passive-aggressive nonsense you'd like but in the end all the "Faghags" all the "Subby Mafias" all the "VAA Charter Members" are more of a cancer than anything else.
Because, even though I'm going to actually attempt to bring something more here as opposed to "fire-and-forget" witticisms, the gambling man inside me doesn't see a favorable outcome regardless. Maybe I'll actually be wrong.
If the sycophants, cliques, sheep-like mentality is any indication though I'm not having much faith. I just would like it if some members here would stop being so two-faced and come out and say, "No I like having some form of power and belonging, even if it is on the Internet."
