[Kozmique]

I'm still new and don't know anyone here really, but I like it here because it does seem a lot more "real" than most boards I've been on but without being boring or cliquish. In nearly every board I have been on regularly there has been a lot of bizarre power-control stuff going on and I occasionally get dragged unwittingly into something because I just posted what I was thinking and had it misunderstood or wrongly interpreted. Without visible emotions to back up the words, language is doubly important in these forums, the ability to convey it as well as understand it in all its nuances, and this seems to be one of the likelier places for that interplay to actually occur. I especially appreciate the underlying sense of humor here which is lacking from so many other forums and is the reason people are always getting offended by one another.
