Thoughts and Sentiments on the Evil of Cliques and Bullying of the Human Species

The Mare's Nest is so lucky to be anonymous. I really want to call some people out on their shit but I can't because I don't want to start anything.

It's tough deciding whether or not you want to be open about who you are and say what you have to say. It's not about a brand, it's just about being responsible for what you say. But what happens when people piss you off and you don't want to start a fight? Do you shut up? Do you say it and ignore responses? Or do you go all out and charge?

I know most people have noticed this, but there are cliques on the forum and I'm speaking about one of them in particular. When one of them is quiet, they're all quiet. But once one of them comes out of hiding, they're rampant. It is almost impossible to become one of them. Their friends are privileged. They hold competitions and every single one of their friends that enters is accepted and kept to the end until it is absolutely dire to eliminate them. They have their own slang that they think is so clever and they think they're right when they tell others off. They stick up for their friends even when their friends are wrong. That may appear as though they're just being good friends but to others, it's bullying. Is it really better to join your friend when your friend looks like an idiot and hurts others rather than save her from further looking stupid? I wonder if they would be so snot-nosed if they couldn't hide behind their computer screens and the anonymity of the internet.
