# Joe S and I went to the one last year, and were singularly shunned
It became clear very quickly that it was because we were /boarders and not just twats.

Lots of boarders who were all very welcoming, and I even got an ambigram commission off Prof. Kenny :)

# No problem
You're a toff.
You know, that used to be a compliment amoung cockerney sparras. Now it just looks rude. Ah well, fuck it, I might as well pst it now givem that I've written this long explanation

# Hahah, not quite
I just hate all that clique stuff, one of the reasons I enjoy the Derby bashes so much is because it's just about getting together and having a laff, innit?

The May London bash, that Riverghost organised, was similar, great atmosphere because everyone was just having a few drinks and a giggle. Maybe we need to sort out a Christmas /board bash so we can just tell the /talkers to get to fuck if they turn up and start being twattish. Unfortunately that existing one is already too set in what we can expect.

# All the talkers I have met....
hang on

all the talkers I have met who have actually spoken to me rather that glaring across a room like some sort of abused alsatian have been lovely.

# Hahah, I don't mean to generalise quite so completely
there are /talkers who are also lovely, it just seems to be a minority
(I helped save b3ta! Jessie © needs pirate name suggestions, Mon 13 Oct 2008, 16:36, archived)
# Oh no, it doesn't bother me
Most generalisations come about by several people proving them right in their case. The '/talk people are rather standoffish' generalisation being a good example of this.

seems as I only ever post text on here...

I always come back though.

# Most of the time they ignore me
there's a few who talk though, and they seem like lovely people.

# to be honest
I think they'd probably say the same about here ... aren't we supposed to be cliquey?
(I helped save b3ta! Prof UnderCover evitable, Mon 13 Oct 2008, 16:49, archived)
# Apparently so.
I don't know, it's hard to say. I think this side is a little less cliquey, but I'm probably wrong due to bias.

but I think I've just been lucky not to meet the knobs

# There's several that I would prefer not to meet
lest my forehead make contact with the bridge of their nose. Quickly.

Having said that though, there's several boarders who I'd rather not meet either.
