You guys are even worse than John upstairs. Here you pretend to be "better" than him, but the reality is far different.

Jon, when I first posted about "Gangs and Bullies", I was not trying to point specific fingers at specific people or actions, but trying to get us all to consider how we are acting, consider how many complaints there are about the CH being a "clique".

What this is coming down to is simply a few who want to be unfettered in anything they say or do, but doing so at the expense of the rest who want a bit less anarchy. A bit more respect in threads. To be taken seriously, even when people do not agree with them, or are bored by the topic.

If this is wrong, then I want no part of it.

The worst part is, the past few days have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is a clique or gang. Why do these same people not practice what they preach... instead of hijacking threads and subject lines because they are bored, simply leave them alone instead? What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

Maybe my meter is wrong, but it seems to me that the "Majority" is speaking right now. Many voices are all asking for the same thing. Clean it up. And I will confess that some of those voices surprised the sh*t out of me.

Shad I'm in agreement with your intended wishes here, I'm just taking a wait and see approach and it will either settle down into somewhere I want to remain or it won't and I'll leave.

People will do what they are going to meantime.  I visit other places too, the majority here will decide even without a rally, election or individual vote.

If it doesn't change for the better it will go under or it will improve.  All I can do is take care of my own input which currently doesn't include input about the input of others.

You know. 

This could have been handled a little better if it was taken through PM?

I think that might have been a little more useful than bickerfests....

 I am sorry, but that doesn't even make sense.

Of course it does. To me.


You had some issues with certain posters...why not use PM?


Or, if not, then mute?

Let me get this right... you want an off-off-topic area?

Just a little reminder for those of you who are "just blowing off steam", your lives are no harder than any others. I think if you look around, you will note that most of us can control ourselves. I think its time to learn to be adults. 

However, as it has been clearly demonstrated that there is a complete unwillingness to consider others by the Coffee House Gang, and clear you only want things your way, I propose we lobby the PTB to create a new area just for the those who aspire to nothing more than Beavis and Butthead levels of "humor". That way, they can post all the idiocy they want, while those who want to be a little more evolved can have a place to discuss the things they like without a pile of inane post hijacking replies and pointless threads (or childish tantrums like the recent mass postings).

I know I've been here quite some time and should know to whom you refer so at the risk
of sounding like a stupid would you please tell me who the members of the CH Gang are so
I can make a determination if it really exists or is just an imaginary gang that you've had a run-in
with.
Hell, I may be part of it and not even realize it.
