I have been noticing something around here, and that's the proliferation of folks bitching about derails and cliques and new posters not always getting a hearty welcome. From what I have seen they have been mostly young, at least younger than myself a little, so my question is, Are you new or what? Is the interwebz a brand new experience for you? Did Al Gore just finally get his snazzy new invention hooked up in your crib? Or is this just your very first message board?
C'mon, you folks a little younger than myself have no excuse. You grew up with the net. I have never been on any board where it wasn't a small challenge to be made known. It is also damned common for most threads to get derailed or jacked, but they usually meander back on point.
I guess what I'm saying is why would you expect one message board to be any different from another. People is people is people everywhere you go, and people generate the flow on a message board.
