ORIGINAL: Celeste43 Unfortunately it seems that a great many of the goreans, male and female alike, have a nasty tendency to come to the nongor threads in order to preach their one true way. I don't know if that's any more common than "Our" factions preaching "the one true way" at each other *winks*.... the various factions of non-Gor just don't have separate boards... (i.e., TPE, Old Guard, New Guard, Mickey Mouse, whathaveyou)..... There is a tendency on the part of -any-one to think their way is the best way... and simply by the act of putting down the "preaching" of someone else, you are "preaching" yourself "superior" to them in a way *winks* (not saying it is intentional, but it IS a side effect if you think about it!) p.s. FT - I thought those two threads (plus the explanation) was a stroke of brilliance *chuckles*... hopefully it will open some eyes You may be correct in that norGors also post their one true way but I don't see it. Probably because I don't go to the Gor threads to post my one true way. But I do see them come here. I also get annoyed at the insistence of many people that they have more right to speak because they are owned slaves and I am 'only' a sub who obviously hasn't yet achieved her true slave potential. And yes, I've had people say that to me. Is it a put down to say I don't like being preached at? Possibly, but it's an honest one as is my dislike of nonstandard writing. I don't pretend that I think everyone is wonderful because I don't. You don't see non-Goreans post anything "true"? Come on, how many threads do we drown in all the time where everyone shouts about people using the words "true," "real," etc?? Are you saying that all the instances of those words are from Goreans??
