    Default Why Am I Here?

    I see posts on here from time to time about the purpose of the board, and the purpose of the customer aspect to it. (Yes, I'm looking at you, Jenny.). So I thought I'd take a moment to state just why it is I participate here.

    1) for what I get, I am fascinated with the whole subject of strippers....the psychology, the job, absolutely everything. I like being a fly on the wall for the discussions here (I DO learn), and participating from time to time.

    2) for what I give, I feel some obligation from a customer/male standpoint, when I see everyone high fiving each other or "you go girl" about an issue for which there is a significant alternative viewpoint, to present that alternative view. To be a splinter when necessary. But also not to just do this for sport -- if I agree, say that too.

    There are only two other sites on the entire internet (both sports-related) of which I am a member, so I have to say you're doing something right. Kudos to those who keep the place running.

    I realize this isn't exactly a question, but perhaps "Customer Conversation" does describe it......

    Number 2 is the reason why you piss people off. If they really wanted your opposing input in their 'victory' threads, they'd probably put it in Customer Conversation. You aren't a stripper, so your input here is not as valuable or important as you think.

    Everyman - thank you. I'm sure everyone appreciates your lovely and articulate explanation.

    I do feel bound to point out, however, that the phrase "being a splinter when necessary" is a bit laden with judgment. I mean - we don't necessarily think you are the best judge of determining when a splinter is "necessary". In fact we generally think that we are excellent judges of when we need a splinter, and think that we can provide it ourselves. Stripperweb is not a uniform-opinioned board. the girls here have disagreements. Go ahead: Ask Me About Disagreeing on Stripperweb.

    Thank you though. Seriously and void of sarcasm. We frequently wonder and I appreciate the thought and courtesy you put into the post.

    You don't have that obligation here. In fact, that's anathema to the purpose of the site.

    To be a splinter when necessary.
    It's not necessary. If you feel that way, you're better off in Blue. It's a splinter convention.

    Well, by definition, a splinter is a foreign body. So here that would be, non-stripper, and generally non-female. So self-splintering is really an oxymoron.

    You keep doing what do you, and I will to, and I'm sure everything will work out fine. I do like the site, and appreciate you for moderating.

    ETA: As far as being a "splinter" on the blue side....impossible. I would merely be a branch on a tree in a forest over there. Nothing interesting about that (for any of us).

    Oh, so you'd rather just be a thorn in our side to get attention? That's what I'm hearing from your post. You're a nobody on the blue side, but a pain in the ass on the pink. I guess that means in your mind it's better to piss the people off this site was designed for by being a pain because at least people notice you, right?

    Gee thanks. We're all so very honored that you relish in our negative attention. Why don't you just take the hint already? No wonder girls want people like you gone. Take your attention whoring elsewhere.

    I about 49.9% agree with you. I almost didn't post it at all -- thinking wtf, it's pretty pointless. I guess the 50.1% won out.

    Tomorrow those percentages will likely change entirely.

    Well, no matter what views I hold, I try to express them politely, and reasonably. I never once have done anything with the primary purpose of pissing people off....so I'm not sure what you're so riled up about. Maybe you're confusing me with someone else.

    I assumed you were using a metaphor. Obviously a literal splinter is a bad thing, that one would generally try to extract as soon as possible; and it is, incidentally, not generally given a choice in the matter. The body would generally consider what value the splinter lent it, and deal with it accordingly, without considering the splinters feelings or well being.

    The fact is that we don't think we need big strong men coming here to give us their wordly, "real-world" views. We think we have a handle on it. We don't need men to tell us how it is; we think we know how it is. You may have noticed that it is this issue that most guys here run up against. You might consider simply removing that part of your little mission here and admitting that if you are doing that you are, frankly, overstepping your bounds. It's a mistake. We all make them and have to move on from them.

    You piss people off by butting in and offering your opinions/ male POV where they're not wanted. No matter how polite you butt in, it's still butting in.

    Here cause I like womenz. My intentions are base, and have no ulterior motive or intention of trying to be anything other than a male electronic identity here. I knew what this place was about after lurking a bit, I signed up anyway. *shrug* doesn't/shouldn't be all that serious.

    If Jenny is a stripper and resides in a different nation than I do, does she have a foreign body?

    I was really not aware I was pissing people off (other than Jenny, who wears her disdain for me on her sleeve). I thought people had a little thicker skin than that. But it sounds like you're saying it's not so much what I say, it's where I say it. I haven't looked up my stats, but I thought I rarely ventured outside CC. I'll be a little more aware of that.

    if you didn't enjoy pissing people off you wouldn't have said that whole "splinter" bit. you like stirring shit and you wanted us to know. *shrug* you seem to have an overblown sense of judgment.

    I think if the OP wants to offer an alternative viewpoint in CC then it is appropriate for him to do so. CC is not about ass-kissing and just agreeing with whatever we say is it?

    As long as u are not venturing into stripping or HH and telling us how to do our job I dont see a problem.

    BTW I am not saying his input is needed, I just don't think it's out of line if it's in CC.
