Re: *squeak squeak*

Yeah, it was a group thing, lots of people at once and all that. But it's water under the bridge, let's leave it alone and not disturb the ogre who lives down there feeding on that kinda stuff.

Heh. It's kinda like a bandwagon in a way, people see them doing it and they all jump on and join in. People really like trends, y'know? Even if they are trends that focus on mocking somebody. I've taken part in that before myself, but I never actually would maliciously harass someone about it on a personal level unless they themselves were stirring it up. (And even then, I would only do it a bit, not so badly as to go hunt them down and harass them at every turn) But I can't speak for the entire place. It just gets kinda annoying seeing everyone getting pushed into one group like we're all evil 24/7. Communities like this are sort of an exception though, since writing a secret like that is just inviting harassment. (Same with BRPS and so on, if you go around saying people suck, they in turn tend to answer in the same manner.)

And I figured it was mostly Island, but the secret in question is lumping both places together, so I kind of just mentioned them both in passing. I like both myself, given I play at both. Though I admittedly am horribly inactive at CFUD and should work on that, but yeah. I think my point(did I even have one in there?) is made regarding that.

Heh. Always kinda fun talking civilly(?!) to an anon.

The bad thing about trends like this is, those that don't jump in, or heaven forbid, actually protest this behavior, are put in the "uncool kids" corner, so to speak. Everyone becomes afraid of speaking up in defense of those being mocked, for fear of being lumped in with them and turned upon themselves. So the unfortunate cycle continues.

And heh, I see no point in being uncivil.
