I have been reading the post on Tiki Central for alittle over six months now and I looked up how many members there are on here (473). For some reason not many people that are signed up are posting anything. I think I know why. If you read any of the post on here you may notice that most of the reply's are from the same people with a few new ones mixed in here and there, but that is only on post that there is no real hard debate. I think that people are intimidated by some of the people on T. C., why you may ask. Well, it seems to me if someone writes a post that every one likes then there really is no problem. But when someone post a reply that is there true opinion, everyone gangs up on that person and does not let up. Then that's when you get four to five pages of just the dumbest crap & all they are really doing is getting off the topic and bullying, they don't seem to know when to let up. They just can't understand other peoples points and of course never admit they are wrong. Then you have the little group that seem to follow the leader. They can't seem to speak for themselves, if they do then they get bashed and made fun of. I would just like people to stand up and not let this group of T. C. bully's let you not write a post you really want to write. Who cares what they have say, I sure don't. There are other people on here that are really nice. I was told that I do not write any positive post, well if that group would stop going on ebay and finding artwork to make fun of then I would leave a positive, I don't like picking on people that can't even defend themselves and have no idea there art is being made fun of. So why don't you use all that spare time you have on your hands and find good art work to talk about. I thought that was what T. C. was about, getting on and talking to your fellow tiki friends and sharing the great finds or tiki bar you just went to. That is why I joined, was to learn about new things and meet some interesting peeps. When I found this site I thought it was kool at first, to find a group of people into the same things I am. There are some good discussions on here, but reading one that gets out of control and starts making farting noises are just annoying, you guys just bash people with NO point at all, it isn't even a debate, you aren't saying anything that makes any sense. I don't think everyone should agree, but can't we have a debate without going off on someone and getting off the subject. I think some of the new interesting people that probably have some good things to share are scared to post and don't want to have someone go off on them. Just alittle something I thought. And it is just my opinion, so don't get your panties in a bundle. Love your Brotha's and ya Sista's
