I see it both ways. While I can see how people would be upset that they aren't involved with an OB, I don't think it is something to be upset about either. Especially if you're new. IRL you wouldn't meet someone and invite them to your sleep over next weekend. Relationships take time to build, at least they do for me.
I am a pretty private person, and FB is separate for me from TK and contains information on a more personal level than I feel comfortable sharing here. I don't think people should have to add people into their private lives just to make them feel better or not hurt their feelings.
I guess I'm not very sensitive, and it's fine that some people are. I'm not sure if I have a point here.....
But I truly believe that people shouldn't be flamed just for being new. I think people should be flamed for being idiots. Do most of those idiots happen to be new? Well...yeah. Because most of the people that stick around here aren't idiots. Because we flame idiots and chase them away. Because they're idiots.
I also think you can ask a stupid question and not be an idiot. I have a high idiot standard.

Well I still dont think cash bars are a big deal and you like me now ;)
I do think we had less of a chance for being 'forgiven' back then. But we managed to figure out how the board works and either choose to stick around or go somewhere else.
But since we dont do that to people anymore (meaning rip them to shreds over minor things), we cant really expect people to take a step back and reflect. We let alot slide so whos fault really is it that things happen the way that they do?
I think we should all just get really mean again. I was better at that than being nice and shiit like Im supposed to be now.......

Very, very true. I see it more on other boards, but sometimes a newb comes in and asks a stupid question (i.e. can I fire a BM), and people go at them with both barrels. If they continue to think they are right after everyone is telling them that they are wrong, then flame away. But sometimes they really don't know what the right answer is, and are trying to just do the right thing. But a lot of times they just get immediately flamed and judged by 10-15 people, and it puts them on the defensive, and they fight back, and people attack, and it goes on and on.

I am a pretty private person, and FB is separate for me from TK and contains information on a more personal level than I feel comfortable sharing here. I don't think people should have to add people into their private lives just to make them feel better or not hurt their feelings.
I guess I'm not very sensitive, and it's fine that some people are. I'm not sure if I have a point here.....
I also think you can ask a stupid question and not be an idiot. I have a high idiot standard.
Everything the light touches is my kingdom.

And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now. Because trust me when I tell you honey, they're gonna need it. ~jcaruncho2010

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: AATB post 2 : I can totally understand that, Blue. Especially since I was one of those people flaming you long ago. Though to be fair, it wasn't because you were new, it was because of the cash bar thing and the fact that you were super stubborn and would NOT back down! Don't ever change. :) Yeah, I think anyone who didn't get initiated into P&E didn't have it as hard as a newb. But, it's all relative to what you know, so I don't expect that to mean anything to someone who was not around for that.

Well I still dont think cash bars are a big deal and you like me now ;)
I do think we had less of a chance for being 'forgiven' back then. But we managed to figure out how the board works and either choose to stick around or go somewhere else.
But since we dont do that to people anymore (meaning rip them to shreds over minor things), we cant really expect people to take a step back and reflect. We let alot slide so whos fault really is it that things happen the way that they do?
I think we should all just get really mean again. I was better at that than being nice and shiit like Im supposed to be now.......

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: AATB post 2 : My family has a house in Harwich (next to the A&W on Route 28 if you know it) that I spent every summer at from when I was born until I graduated college. I was at the Sea Camps in Brewster for 12 yaers or something like that, and I poured root beer at teh A & W for years too. I still go down there every weekend from May - October. I love it down there - we would totally move there if the jobs were better.

Posted by beatlesgirl25[/QUOTE]
Well, I didn't actually build this city on anything. I was kind of a late arrival. I tend to be slow. But I'll build my city on whateverthefuck I want, thank you! And today, it's rock and roll.
Tomorrow it might be more in line with SB, and I may have built this city on dildos and bisexuality.
Everything the light touches is my kingdom.
[QUOTE]But I truly believe that people shouldn't be flamed just for being new. I think people should be flamed for being idiots. Do most of those idiots happen to be new? Well...yeah. Because most of the people that stick around here aren't idiots. Because we flame idiots and chase them away. Because they're idiots. I also think you can ask a stupid question and not be an idiot. I have a high idiot standard.

Very, very true. I see it more on other boards, but sometimes a newb comes in and asks a stupid question (i.e. can I fire a BM), and people go at them with both barrels. If they continue to think they are right after everyone is telling them that they are wrong, then flame away. But sometimes they really don't know what the right answer is, and are trying to just do the right thing. But a lot of times they just get immediately flamed and judged by 10-15 people, and it puts them on the defensive, and they fight back, and people attack, and it goes on and on.
RAWR!
