Is It Possible To Marginalize A Poster Here @ USMB?
Bullies have tried and it's a non starter. There are too many decent and individualist types on usmb.
I've seen it too many times on every site I've been to. A small group dislikes one poster and group together and after two or three join others will inevitably follow the crowd. I think some people learn that's the way to act (hive-like attacks) when they arrive, and others just bring their pathology of outside life into the psych--cyber-sphere.
I've bullied what I decided were bullies, but not being a joiner of any group that would have me (beware, the poster bites), I've rarely if ever joined in group bullying in order to marginalize an unpopular poster. Doesn't make me a better person, just more of an individualist.
So my question to you all out there is this: Do you think USMB is unusual in this or have you seen it elsewhere? Or maybe you think I am off base here and that what I observe is just plain voodoo?
