The closure of this subject is upon us and now it's time for my finishing speech!
My advise to anybody reading this is to be an individual, join in with others, have fun and keep clear of the particular cliques/gangs who are not accepting of others or you may find you have become manipulated without knowing it by a self serving leader who does not care one bit about you or the other members of the gang and will get you to do their dirty work for them!
Don't be a follower be an individual and most importantly be yourself!
Hi CC Thank you for getting this subject back on track and I must admit it seems a lot of folks appear to be afraid to discuss this subject and that's why they are trying to change it into a subject about other members characters instead
Maybe I hit a raw nerve with this subject but I know that opening folks eyes to gangs/cliques crawl behaver will help others in the long run to avoid them
I will start afresh with this subject. What is a clique and why do they exist?
A clique is group of people who are in a close nit group and are not excepting of others or their ideas.
Cliques exist because one self serving person manages to influence other folks into their way of thinking and if they want them to ignore other folks they will do so, because they do not wish to be out of favour with the leader or the other members of the clique.
Cliques are very bad news and individuality or courage is not something those members have, but meanness, ignorance and outright stupidity underlines the mindset of a clique.
My view on individuality is that one is free to think for themselves, make one’s own decisions without outside influences and be accepting of others or their opinions.
I have always made my own decisions, will not be influenced by what others think and will always be my own man!
I do enjoy debating with others but I do not like it when folks get personal and the subject matter that was created gets forgot about.
I'm up for a laugh and joke like the rest of you but I take this particular subject seriously and want people to be aware of the problems cliques/gangs can cause.
They had it coming and I have tried so hard to get people to keep me out of this debate and just give their views on gang/cliques VS individuality but they continue to try to slander my character even after asking them many times not to
Anybody can debate on this subject, but what I do not tolerate is people trying to slader me and involve me in anyway, because it's a subject about cliques VS individuality and not I subject about me or other members characters.
Why do you care so much about who I am? why don't you try thinking about who you are and maybe instead of trying to slander other members you may try to become a better person and be at peace with the world.
I never asked you to agree with me, but I asked you to read the thread from start to finish and I asked you to tell me how you would have reacted in my shoes.
Obviously it's easier to be looking in from the other side of the fence without knowing the full facts of the situation and that is what you have done.
I hope this thread has opened people's eyes to cliques/gangs which are created by self serving individuals who just want to be noticed because the real world does not notice them, they dictate to the other gang members who they may converse with or who they want them to target and I will leave the choice upto you weather it be individuality or the later you decide.
If people continue to attack your character instead of debating the subject would you put up with it? would you allow trolls to attack you on your threads? I won the debate with the troll and I never said I won the debate with everyone, so stop twisting my words. I never said they were on the forums, but I know they are on this site. Groups are different to cliques/gangs and you obviously have not read all the comments on this thread.
No more about me because I am just another member like the rest of you and just want to debate the subject matter which happens to be cliques/gangs Vs individuality and comment all you want about that subject, but please read all the previous comments before you draw your own conclusions on this subject.
CC I friendly face thank you for your advise earlier, but as you can see people now think I have banned that person for no reason, but the fact is they were trolling me and had to be banned.
No I am not a bully and we are all free to comment on here, but I won't stand for trolls on this thread nor would you either.
No attacks on my character either because this is a debate about cliques and not an opened season to attack other members just, because you don't like the subject topic.
No you have it all wrong I won the debate with one particular member and they decided to troll me, because they no longer had a legitimate argument left to debate and then I had to ban them like many of you would have done if you were in my shoes too, so don't start saying I'm not accepting of others comments, because I am or I would not have created this thread in the first place would I!
