I’m kinda bummed I’m not on that list.

[junipersky]

@Snackness

You are on the only list that matters.

My heart.

[Testament]

@Snackness I’m not on it either. We can make our own list.

[Snackness]

@Testament Yeah let’s ditch this clique!

[junipersky]

@Snackness @Testament

Make the diagram first please!!

[Snackness]

@junipersky It’s everyone who isn’t me and @Testament .

[KarmaBum]

@Snackness pretty sure your post-to-like ratio is a lot higher than some of Those People. (since im also not on the list, this is what i tell myself to staunch the flow of seemingly endless tears)

[Snackness]

@KarmaBum I mostly wanna be on it so I can be marked as BANNED even though I never attacked anyone and never DMed anyone.

eta: okay maybe I attacked some people but they had it comin’ and it wasn’t the people whining about being attacked.

[junipersky]

@Snackness

But I like you AND Testament. I can’t understand!!

If I am in the clique am I even ALLOWED to like people who aren’t?

[hellfrog]

@junipersky friendship is bad

[Kestrel]

@GF

[Snackness]

@junipersky Look I don’t make the rules

[junipersky]

@Snackness

They won’t tell me what day to wear pink though!

[Snackness]

@junipersky Sure they will!

[Testament]

@Snackness Nobody banned me! I banned my myself!

This is how I best understand the clique membership, but I could be wrong:

[farfalla]

@Pavel I only know like 5 of these people, but getting second billing is exciting.

[Pavel]

@farfalla I just know @Meg likes to be on top, and to come first.

Honestly I just want to commend you for your reminder that IolaRae begins with an I.

The “most reputation” is largely going to favor admin (because more people acknowledge their posts) and mid-to-long term active posters who engage with discussions in an active community. If someone stops posting or posts less they’ll slide naturally, but only if there’s enough activity on the board to bump other people’s total number of “likes” up. So ironicly with the activity slowed now that many active posters/active like-ers are banned/gone/not posting as much that list is going to take longer than usual to shift. Which i can see the humor in too.

I would say don’t give a hurtful thing attention but that would be stupid and hypocritical. I know that I can’t expect people who have pretty much always behaved in a certain way to not do it. It’s an unreasonable hope. Sometimes it is also somewhat humorous but only in the sense of laughing rather than giving in to despair.

But I am not sure engaging with people who enjoy refusing to see or acknowledge or alternatively just cannot is worth the hurt. I guess I will grow up at some point.
