B!! I'm so glad you took the time to comment here.
I'm also middle-aged (*sigh*), and I know exactly what you mean. I've been a part of this 'community' since 2004 as well. I don't remember things being this bad, and everything you've said is spot-on. (And holy shit will that woman ever quit?!)
If you even thought about defending someone (or even if you were just making a snarky, unrelated comment, as gelydh did once) on MS3B, you were called out for 'white-knighting.' The whole thing just bored me to tears. Maybe my sense of humor is different, but we couldn't stand it anymore.
Glad you've bookmarked us. I know I've always appreciated your comments on our work. :)
Tristan: "I didn't think you could come up with something like this on your own. Although 'Club Crimsyn' is something I could see you having a hand in." Chris: "The 'Y' makes it hip." Tristan: "Yes, if you say so."
