Possibly.
Or maybe we are not used to newer people having so many others get their back when it happens that we get even more defensive and things get ridiculous?

Once again, I am not saying that all of the above are bad things at all. I know a lot of people have formed friendships IRL that would continue if TK shut down tomorrow. I'm just saying that this may not make some newbs (or even those on the newb/reg borderline) feel welcome because they feel a little shut out, even if it is done unintentionally.

Not in this post, I meant more when someone says something weird in a regular thread, gets called out for it, and then others defend them.
Thats not how it used to work and was in my head as a possible explanation for the change in dynamics.
Yeah OBs, email chains, fb groups and all that have always happened. It is how it goes. I get that it creates an us vs them type of thing sometimes (and boy oh boy it has) but it is not bad. 99% of conversations off the knot are about forging friendships like J&K said. My best friends are people from the knot. Sure I have IRL friends too, but is not every day you find people who can take you from shitty work situation to funny anecdote to sad family news to big AW support and truly mean it. It means the world to me.
Why jsut this week I had a life crisis and I turned to my knottie bestie and Mike. Sure I have friends in the real world and sure I love them, but it doesn't mean I don't love my knot friends jsut as much!!
I chat on fb and the ss place, but that has always been open to anyone who wants in. There will always be OB's and such and there always will be. I dont see the problem with continuing a friendship off TK with people who you like and like you.

Yuh huh! That doesn't mean that people might not guess who you/I talk to off TK, because I do think it can be obvious. Clearly I have better relationships with some people here than others. But that comes with the territory and with time.
I do agree that it can be intimidating. I lurked on P&E for a long time before I started posting, because I was also intimidated a little bit. But that's why I like to fairly regularly have "Lurker" posts encouraging people to come out. Perhaps I'm not the right person to start those posts ;)

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: AATB post 2 : And then I'll just ditto this. I hear what you are saying, Allisong, but I am not a part of the FB, SS stuff. <strong>The people that I talk to off TK, I've been talking to for over a year (for the most part) and I rarely mention on TK that we talk off TK.</strong>

Yuh huh! That doesn't mean that people might not guess who you/I talk to off TK, because I do think it can be obvious. Clearly I have better relationships with some people here than others. But that comes with the territory and with time.
I do agree that it can be intimidating. I lurked on P&E for a long time before I started posting, because I was also intimidated a little bit. But that's why I like to fairly regularly have "Lurker" posts encouraging people to come out. Perhaps I'm not the right person to start those posts ;)
Everything the light touches is my kingdom.
