I like many on here am pleased that the casual/new members on here have done one since the album has been leaked/streamed.
This being said I find this place is very selective as to the members whom they feel worthy of recognition/replys. There is favourtism toward certain people who often contribute anane points/posts. It feels like a small circle of members reserve the right to respect no matter what the content or quality of their posts are.
I find it all a bit sad and confirms my standpoint of viewing this forum from a distance.

It's human nature if you ask me. The regulars who post here for a long period of time are going to become more comfortable with each other and they'll gravitate towards each other.
The only time I ever see any discrimination is if a new member comes in spouting negative comments or trolling bullshit. It's only natural that regulars and familiar members will be given more leeway with that. If a stranger comes up to you and makes a dickhead remark, chances are you'll get pretty defensive and think "who the fuck is this idiot?", but if one of your good friends does the same thing, i bet you'd react differently.
This is one of the better forums I've been on. My only gripe is the place lacks balls. I think too much is let go and more action should be taken at times.

I don't understand why you're angry. If you want to get more involved, start posting more. You're not going to win anyone over by starting threads like this.

I recognise your username and thought you were a perfectly fine poster.. Your already here longer than I am but I post more (read: too much, I should stop!) and I must say in the very beginning I didn't feel very welcome either, but hey it's an internet forum, they don't bite, just say what you want to say

I get your point Sally, I am not fishing for compliments at all, if my posts are not deemed worthy of reply then that is totally fair. I just honestly feel posts that are absolute nonsance posted by the chosen ones get attention for the sake of it.
I will watch rather than participate.

I'm a bit confused. What exactly do you want us to say to this thread? And what could we possibly do better on the other threads? I don't get what you mean about no one replying to you. Do you ask questions that no one answers? And what do you mean recognition? Like all the (^this) stuff that goes on? You want more people to voice their agreement of your opinions?
Also there are always dozens of views to a thread before the first comment. But that isn't the regulars faults...it's more likely people that act as you are proposing and read but never post anything...so don't blame US for that.

Not to get all dime-store social and shit, right, but that's how the world actually operates. It's all about social economics, isn't it? I mean, take for instance in the accusation of "trolling": I suppose it's the question of "relevance," and how people manipulate the term and/or designation as a way of saying they can't find a tangible reason for disliking what something intends to embody (or not); it's a way of pretending they're more in step with present contemporary culture, or whatever the current cocksucking evironment is, than say the irrelevant person....That or they are just being a dismissive twat. Moreover, at the end of the day, the whole thing is self-defeating: If you classify something as "irrelevant," you're obviously using it as a unit of comparison against whatever IS "relevant," BUT the thing is whatever is "relevant" is really the same fuckin shit, more or less.
To take the liberty of stealing some shit I've read recently from some Aryan motherfucker-- proper Aryan fucker from the preHitler Germany days: WHAT BOTHERS ME IS THE UNDERLYING SUGGESTION THAT WHAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING IS DIFFERENT THAN WHATEVER YOUR MIND TELLS YOU IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING. Fuck yeah!! Man, fuck, all it is THE MAN IS JUST TRYING TO KEEP US DOWN, THAT'S ALL.

Is there a leak imminent or what?! ^^
What`s your point? Have you started many threads and they were overlooked? Or did you contribute to threads and got no feedback? Don`t really get it. The worst thing over here was that thread by the guy who broke out in tears `cos he got negative "karma" Shit don`t matter at all. Just go on. "you gotta say what you say"

The regular posters on the forum are obviously going to know each other better and discuss things with each other. If you feel left out the only thing you can do is get stuck in. We were all new at some stage. Complaining about it won't change anything

You spent all that time writing that post up there and it makes 0 sense. I really don't get why you come back here every day. All you do is call people names, but everyone knows you're an idiot so most people don't even acknowledge your posts.

We were all new at some stage. Complaining about it won't change anything ...But what if you don't want to be "in" and still feel left out, cha know what I mean? Like The Little Tramp from those Chaplin pictures--- it's not that were anti-social, more like asocial: WE still want to be a part of it, but who wants to be stuck "in" with such company, like yours. CHA KNOW WHAT i'MEEN?

like others said, people tend to be more confortable around the others they know, or those that post regularly. we were all newbies once and "on the outside". once you get familiar with the rest and start posting you will feel different I suppose.
gosh I've been here forever, there are cicles in this forum. Every now and then you will find the same type of threads: those that complain about "cliques", those that find the piano versions of oasis songs on youtube and those that "discover" where Noel got the inspiration from LOL

I just like to promise you that I will refrain from such transgression-- fuckin only thing I can do, really. Shake hands?

If you would just chill out and be a little nicer to people, I and many others would have absolutely no issue with you and I hope you do stop being so aggressive because it's always good to have active posters.

Clearly I was being ironic. (I couldn't give a shit. I'm just in-between jobs (really, I'm lazy a fuck) so that explains my present prolificacy (sp? right word?).) But of course irony has become so fuckin passe and that.-- I sympathize with the late David Foster Wallace-- there I go again with my educational well-read intellectual bullshit

Yep. Lot of pissants on here. All the acronyms for song titles are particularly annoying and inclusive. MSL sounds a bit like DO. la-la-la-la.
