I can make fun of Darren and not get drawn and quartered for it? [img]wink.gif[/img]
Seriously, I love everyone here because you're all so intelligent and nice and I feel like I can say what I like here which is very cool [img]smile.gif[/img]

P.S. Also the background is sorta dark and I *like* dark!! Mwahaha [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
I get a place to just comment with some intelligent people who I like. Here miraculously one can get along with people who are die hard Darren fans and also with others who think hes not all that. Its a mix of people and opinions and no bulls-h-i-t with it. We arent forced to be all "postive" the most overused word of late. In not being forced to be oh so nice and kiss butt we are actually nice LOL We make sense and we are rational. Its amazing how a group of people who have all differing feeling for a band and a man seem to get along so well when allowed to express opinions and know they will get listened to and not lectured to! Here I dont feel the need to defend my opinions all the time and dont feel judged by the smarmy few.
Plus its a pretty bopper free environment [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img] always a good thing! P

I think the two things I get from here are acceptance and respect. We are all adult and intelligent enough to accept and respect each other's views and opinions without having to blindly agree with each other all the time. No-one here is judged for having differing opinions and people don't feel the need to defend themselves on that basis either. It's great that we can honestly express ourselves without fear of ridicule too.
There is also a great sense of community, friendship and compassion here and I think most people who come here can rely on a sympathetic ear or a friendly shoulder to cry on when they have worries or troubles. People here do care and I just think it's a nice place to hangout with some really nice, kind and cool friends [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well, 'Bittermint' (aka 'newshound'? [img]wink.gif[/img] lol) is gonna love this reply (and probably get plenty of mileage out of it [img]graemlins/sure.gif[/img] ) but I agree with Michelle when she says that she agrees with what everyone else has said! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I like the fact I get free stuff [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Wha...? What do you mean I don't get free stuff?! wtf?! [img]mad.gif[/img]
I agree with all of you. It's just a warm, comfortable environment full of respect for one another's opinions and values. I belong to a Yahoo Group that is very much like this. I love knowing that no matter what I say, or do, I am understood and respected. That doesn't happen everywhere, but it should. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I know I've asked this elsewhere because of the mixed feelings I have there atm.
Here, I feel a total sense of belonging, unconditional acceptance and safe to be myself amongst a very honest, caring and compassionate group of ladies [img]smile.gif[/img]
what everyone else said!! [img]biggrin.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Well just that....i dunno i think the fact i dont have to pay to belong here!!! i like that part and that cos there isnt lots of people here at any one time really, all of the topics get answered rather than get ignored like 'somewhere else where i used to belong but now i dont' oh and it is friendly and there is no enemies on here *i think*

I know I'm not around much but I think being away from here often makes me realise that this place is ace. I know that whenever I come by, there will always be a lot of warmth and friendship here. Every now and again I sneak a peak at other places I used to go and am glad I don't spend time there. I really enjoy being a fan from afar. That and I haven't got time for bbs life these days.
I miss you all!

I know i haven't been posting/lurking on here that long, but from what little i have seen i like.
I haven't seen any "sucking up", nobody's been jumped on for having a different opinion.
I've been steering clear of other boards atm, i don't know whether disilussioned is the right word?
Anyway, you seem a ok bunch [img]wink.gif[/img]
