There is definitely, definitely a controlling group. It is scary sometimes. I kinda feel a bit like a kid around here, both as a new(ish) user and as a relatively young person (am I? I have no idea how old anyone is around here). As a result, I put a lot of thought into my comments. Most of the time, I don't post them at all, generally for fear of looking inexperienced. On the other hand, it makes me much more thoughtful about what I do say, because I know you guys aren't just random strangers who disappear into the depths of the Internet. You will read it and think about it and then I'll see you on another post. It is kind of like talking to classmates, or people you see regularly but don't need to interact with. You don't want to fuck it up, because you're going to see them again, but you'd rather you could talk to them because it just makes the environment a little more welcoming. Just chiming in with my two cents.
