I didn't become a subscriber until like 3 months ago. And I don't rep*****.

Then i retract the accusation. Those who tend to post nonsense about d&d/vienna cliques tend to be members who were part of that clique thus the misunderstanding.

D&D clique:
This mythical group can be wandering round on http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/ where they all suposedly worship the God vienna95, along with the pink flying elephants, unicorns and giants.

Seriously get real!! It doesn't exist. There are regular users of d&d who all have a wide range of views and argue verimently with each other. To suggest that in some way people who have supported her are under her control or part of her clique is offensive as it suggests those users cannot think for themselves.

As flattering as that would be, I agree. Ironically, those supposedly in my clique are among the most free thinking individuals on the forum.

Technik was referring to a post made by me that summed up was something along the vienna likes moaning about things.

no...YOU are referring to YOUR comment in the thread entitled Complainers...

i am referring to "cliques" and that the only i feel exists (from my knowledge) is the huge moaning thread in which many people have "aired" their views in the private domain away from prying eyes :smile:

The term clique must mean something entirely different in America than it does in the UK.

I meant clique as in the group that vienna did or does discuss the running of d+d with.

Generally there are two groups relevant to this topic. Those who dont let personal dislikes get in the way of judgement and those whos hatred of vienna leads to them badmouthing d&d non stop. Those closest to resembling a clique are the latter group.

Read through the moaning thread, a large part of it is merely chit-chat and then there is the moaning that is not related to any members at all.

I did not even start this thread for personal promotion, it has already been clarified that I made no comment about wishing to be considered or promoting myself at all, nor even afterwards did I give myself any extra coverage or promotion that was not given to anyone else.

wiwarin_mir, as I see it, you're doing a good job, with this unpleasant task.
And NO, you are NOT promoting yourself. And for what it's worth, I support your nomination.
