mindfful: maybe i should change my sc to bawdybroad
Hi
Yet again you have me thinking
About the use of our personal names instead of our online ones
I make sure I don't use other peoples real name for it is their decision if they choose to reveal it or not. I didn't think much about others using mine on the forums either to be honest.
And now..I think maybe we should stick to our user names in order to prevent the confusion and not to alienate those who are not in the know

turkish magooooooo
its not my deal btw
it was just how i was raised on the net-lol
there is netiquette some follow and some dont
and some arent even aware of but yes that is one reson to use sc's
it makes things more easily inclusive
but there are some that have an agenda to create exclusivity
and even tho it may only be directed against a few chosen outsiders
the lurkers see it and it makes them fearful to come in
its great to hear people say oh i just pushed my way in
im responsible for me-blahblah
but i do feel we are guests of our hosts and by proxy-we are hosts
and its craaaap to try to go to a party or outing when youre new and have to work doubly hard to fit in or wonder why so and so doesnt like so and so and which one should i watch out for?
much nicer when someone is makin an effort to help you feeel welcome instead of makin you responsible to struggle your way in
forums are generally more open and therefore have more members than we do currently
and these are some of the reasons why
i mean if there are thousands of CS worldwide members and a smidgen-less than 50 are in forum regularly it must be the environmant in forums-it cant be that thousands or hundreds of people are just weak or shy-its US!!

I know when I started many moons ago on the Irish forums, everybody knew each other, they had met up face to face and it continued on in the Forums. It was intimidating to say the least, but I got stuck in anyways
The difference there, I have to say , was they included you straight away and introduced you to others, introduced themselves via mail of their names.
Then again..it was a small community and folks could meet up each weekend if they wanted to, unlike in the US, which makes more of a on-line experience anyways.
Words loose meaning without the inflection of body language and some feel excluded because their perception of the words they have read is influenced by their personal circumstances at the time
That's why , when there is a full moon ..there are arguments

shipoker58: Do you sometimes feel left out of threads. People are so wrapped up in their own little group that your comments are totally ignored? It's like two or three people get on a thread and then ignore everyone else? Or is it just me???
Did you say something ship?

'Sometimes'??? That's an understatement. I see it happening 'most' of the time. Hijacking a thread seems to be a favourite hobby of some folks in here.

I like to get to know people in the threads, and if I like them enough, emails, then chat...then phone etc...
I've felt like I've been ignored at times, but there's enough love around to find - so I just
go on and find it....

and im no one to school anyone
just sharing my perspective-
ive been here long enuf to see some evolution
and devolution
i was here well before i came into forums and then took a break soon after entering and getting involved w/ a member
and then came back
there is room for all kinds and water seeks its own level
i just see a dsad amount of effort into snubbing or outright insulting people and if we were at a party at someones house
which virtually we are
that crap wouldnt go on
people would at least say hi and feign being pleasant to everyone else and then group off
i dont know why it cant be done here-well i do know why
because its not real and people can get away w/ being unkind and justify it
they dont have to look anyone in the eye here
i say hi to people i know despise me-thats their stoopid problem really
continuous effort to support and uphold a decision made to dislike an absolute stranger? its hilarious really.
in my opinion. which only has value to me i spose-so i say hi-they ignore me or whine about having asked me to leave them alone but i still say hi
fekem
i can be pleasant even to those that have decided they dont like me
cuz ya know what? i was taught it dont cost nothin to be polite
and not bein polite might cost me someone who is watching to think me unkind-and thats no good now is it?
i mean shouldnt singles shopping for a date at a party be on their best behavior?
youd think so...
That's cool am trying to have a real discussion with you and get your perspective so it''s fine.
I am not saying that you are intent on schooling me it's my attempt at humor which I do when I don't know people well.
I think some of us have to learn the etiquette of these forums you are right when in person you don't snub people. I don't at least.
That's cool and we are not all going to be liked by everyone.
Funny that is one of my sayings that kindness doesn't cost a thing.
It's fun to joke around here and to learn that is what I am here for to learn and connect with all types of people.
Yeah your pretty straightforward I would imagine the sparks have flown a bit between you and others at times. Nothing wrong with being a bit feisty.
