like, appearing to be an elitist circlejerk group even though you didn't mean it

just my 2cents

If my name was Adolf Hitler in 2013 and people bitched me out because of my name even though it had nothing to do with me, don't you think I should say something to clear up a misconception? aww ye Godwin's Law

If people realized that we changed our name after already under the assumption that we're somehow related to Hitler, that doesn't really help the fact does it?

There was never a time where our IRC denied people from going in or kicked people out for no reason. GD and I, among others, advertise it on our signatures everytime we post and that's not for no reason..

While I'll agree that the Skype group is somewhat constrained, this is mainly due to Skype's group member limitations and not primarily due to circlejerking

can you really compare KBO to Hitler?

good point, but you're assuming that the negative perceptions of #kbo and the Skype group are all derived from perceptions of stargroup's game/website, which... may not be true? I kind of have no idea what's happening here to be honest lol.

stargroup checked in here at ffr for a while and, from what I saw, he was friendly with everyone. not sure what happened in the past, but I don't think the public hatefest should continue.



WHOA I found my KBO (website) login. looking at my post history now

you can compare anything really. hitler is not exempt from comparisons because of his crimes against humanity

The skype group is mine. I have no relation to CosmoVibe whatsoever. I only created it because of close friends like Pat, Jordan, Thai, Chris and some other ppl.

Though anyone is welcome to join, lol. I never closed it off in the first place. It's just that very few people ask me to invite them, that's pretty much it.

perhaps, but any posts in a thread about an inactive yet viable website could be good posts. thread name on front page -> exposure

[Gundam-Dude]

I'm going to use a shitty example here but TBH I think people here like to group #kbo with LJ as one in the same because we're practically the only community that accepts him with open arms without finding him "an annoying shit twat" like the active FFR community, which is a circlejerk of their own in many ways. pretty much how it ends up being is:

1. LJ posts some stupid dumbass thread again to start up shit on FFR
2. thread gets the attention LJ seeks because he's trying to piss people off
3. because he's part of #kbo, people are defaulted to think he's representing the entire community or some dumb assumption shit
4. #kbo ends up being branded as a shitty community by the FFR supreme government and court simply because we have this 1 guy shit posting on the site
5. general assumptions follow such as "if LJ is an annoying twat, the rest of #kbo must be too" sort of deal
6. people avoid #kbo at all costs and start shit talk gossip about the community

shitty example but it suffices to prove my point as to why I hear so much negative gossip and misconceptions about our community.

doesn't matter if group was closed or not, some people prob feel kbo irc group or whatever is an elitist circlejerk because you guys have all these sorts of inside jokes that nobody gets and kommi/gd some others have made stupid elitist and contradictory posts before

[L.B.D.D]

it also doesn't help that all you guys seem to do is ) and play japan anime

yep pretty much this.

Cept that team yes wasn't seeking to make ppl mad cause it was pretty legit
but ppl STILL got butthurt easily lol

kinda sucks no one else knows how chill I can be rip

[cedolad]

People get butthurt, and then you get butthurt.

In the end we're all just a bunch of butthurt nerds.

Get over it.

now this is a prime example of straight up misconceptions and assumptions to make. this is exactly the kind of shit I'm talking about where people assume this stuff without ever stepping foot into any of the chats, let alone having an actual one-on-one conversation with anyone from the community. there's also a huge negative connotation coming from that comment, regardless of being sarcastic or with complete satire—if you think this is true, there are plenty of others from this community that think likewise.

I'm not making this comment out of spite or with the intent on arguing, but to bring to attention the stuff I hear all the time coming from people on FFR—you're not the only one that thinks this pretty much, rofl. it's silly to talk shit about a community that you've never been in, is all I'm saying.
