This forum and how we behave here has served your expressed purpose of being an incentive for younger members, giving them something to strive for.  I made an 'oppresive' topic yesterday about hiding n00b posts and immediately received a message, not of offense, but of longing to be in this forum.  My response, in turn, was of course not to degrade the girl, but to encourage her to hang on, assuring her we needed more reasonable and interesting people in this forum. If you see aggression and elitism, it is not over every member not present in Yore (though hyperbole might tend toward that statement), but against [url=http://www.golivewire.com/forums/dictionary.cgi?action=define&word=n00b]n00bs[/url] (Click) a group that I don't mind rejecting.  That's the other purpose of this place after all, to gain a bit of respite from the immaturity that may plague the rest of the forums. The atmosphere created in this forum has been hugely successful on all counts.  You should note that in spite of being both newer and more restrictive than either of your other "members only" forums, it has the highest level of activity. That is all.[/color] [/quote] FAQ Keyword Search: Post Options Favorites Manager Notify me of new replies to this topic by email Notify me of new replies to this topic by private message Original Post davjs Posted at 6:57 pm on Jan. 17, 2008 I'm a proud member of the LiveWire Members of Yore and my number of days active has earned me the right to post here. However, I am concerned and a little sad to hear that some individuals are using their Yore status to put down, reject, and ignore newer members whose ideas and opinions should be listened to and respected. I've said what I came here to say.

Having a wide variety of math skillz, I can verify that "no better" != "better" Most recent 15 of 37 previous replies displayed.
