    Who are the cliques? Does it mean I'm in one if I can't tell? Or does it mean I'm not in one? I have friends here.

    I have never snubbed anyone who has tried to get to know me. When I first started posting I was ignored. I just interject myself into the conversation.

    If anyone feels like they have tried to connect with me and I was unwelcoming, please say so.

    ETA: @SEAHORSES4EVER I say this because I agree with your post :heart:

    If I was popular enough to have a clique, I'd welcome both of you in it.

    This place used to be fun, I'd come into the forums and know I'd be laughing at all the wit and humour thrown about. I met some really great people on here and admired others from afar. However, recently I feel like it's a competition of who can be the biggest b!tch to others, who can put people down the most. It's boring. That's what's on my mind.

    If you think this post is about you then maybe it is.

    imo at least- i've always thought it comes in cycles. ebbs and flows. there's always going to be cliques and groups and feuds and stuff like that.

    i always say it but i really believe it too- for every "group" there's going to be a couple thousand more that aren't part of that group and could never, will never, care what they think. and that's not such a terribly unhappy thought. i hope some of those people who feel marginalized sometimes read this and know they don't need to stay quiet or stay away because of the actions of others.

    i know i love you dearly- i think every one else does too. things like this pass in time they always do. so don't let it beat you down. you have no competitors.

    As a cliqueless, non-group joiner who keeps no friend list and rarely PMs - I find the dynamics put on display by the highlighted above to be reliably entertaining and the main reason why I continue to log onto MFP. I know men can be cliquey but wow. Chit Chat has a female contingent that really proves the stereotypes to be terribly terribly accurate.

    Can I still send you my love poems?
