liek me.
at first I was a noob and nobody liked me.
Till I actually dared to post everyday.
Now most people like me. I don't think all of them do though.

Oh I have. I posted in there, twice I think, and both times it was a completely pointless exercise. The thread was so active that within half an hour my post was at least a page back, swept under the carpet because I wasn't one of the cool guys. Now I'm not complaining about that, just explaining to you that I have tried it and experienced the "clique" feeling that I talked about.
So you hate it because you made 2 posts...
yeah, that seems legit.

You made two posts and you are complaining? That is like going up to a group of people irl, saying hi, walking away, and complaining about them not being accepting and treating you like their best friend. It is perfectly fine if you didn't want to use it, everyone likes different things, but it doesn't mean you should say that it is "ridiculous" and "very cliquey".
Can't quite believe I'm seeing this. Guy questions the cliquey-ness of something, and yet the very same has a signature with pictures and usernames of all his favourite posters. I can only guess that you don't understand what a clique is.
Tbh, many of my favorites aren't on there. Anyone that posted a bit in the CT could of asked woowoo to get in.
That's not the point though. A forum community shouldn't require that you "pass the test" in order to get "accepted". It encourages cliques which is completely pointless except to those inside that clique babbling on about how cool they are. I love a social aspect on forums, and "off topic" sections, but the second it gets to feeling cliquey is where it should stop. It can actually get ridiculous, I've been on some forums where the in-crowd has more influence than the site staff.
What is this test? Be nice and be active?
Personally idgaf, as the internet is a mere playground to me... but to deny that the chat threads were cliquey is to deny reality.
A reminder that this is the "Introductions and Leavings" tread, not the "Mini Chat" thread. Anymore posts that, quite simply, are not about "Introductions and Leavings" will be formed by it. Stop comparing what the chat thread was, or who posted in it, or anything about the Chat Thread. This isn't it. Shape up, and stay on topic.
Hi, I am Will. I am an aspiring Minecraft player, who will join the massive ranks probably in about early June or late May. On the game, I will attain the name: "AlexRyder", but I will use "MrMindcraft" for now.

Hello Will! I hope you enjoy your stay. Not really sure what you mean by massive ranks, but good luck with whatever lies ahead.

Have you read the Alex Rider series before?
Oh and welcome to the "massive ranks"

It is a common misconception I come across every time I join a new site. I actually despise that series; and the reason for my name was a bored 9-year old with a wrestling obsession and a trampoline. I pretended I was a wrestler and made the alias.

I adore my chewy bagels, and sometimes I make Arnold Palmers! If anyone wants further talk of me, they would have to Mail me, as I am officially out of posts.

Basically already left a few weeks ago once the chat thread died. I can be found on NationStates with about two or three dozen other Otters (PM me if you'd like more info, I'll get an email). Been good. Later.
Too conflicted.
Anyway, I need sleep - GN.
Somehow this thread morphed into a mini Chat Thread.
No Baka dunt leav me

anyways, welcome.
I'm sure the mods will have fun going though hundreds of single post threads about people saying hi.
