    Default apology and explanation

    I've always been a huge web-board fan and in the past I've belonged to forums that were male-dominated and this is my first time in a forum that is primarily for women. I was also administrator on my past forum which had 200,000+ members and was very active so I am used to a very different role.

    The main thing I've always done on web-boards is debate stuff. I always post strongly and in past forums this has been well-received by other debators.

    I'm stripperweb isn't like this and I'm sorry that I keep treating it like past forums. In real life, I'm not a know-it-all at all and it really bothers me that people feel like I am one.

    I don't know if I'll stick around because this may not be the place for me and I don't seem to fit in but I wanted to apologize to all those I offended. I had no idea it was so many of you!

    If anyone has any further problems with me, a PM would be appreciated instead of posting on the board.

    I was never offended by you. No apology needed for me on my end.

    I know Newmoon in real life and she's really very sweet, intelligent, and thoughtful. She works hard at the club and I don't think she's 'know it all' tastic. My impression, both here and IRL, is that she really researches the job to the best extent she can, and that she has a passion to do well. I really don't think she wants to tell everyone what to do, but that she wants to learn.

    Just wanted to give you a shout out, NM! It's the truth, for whatever my opinion is worth.

    Oh, no worries, really!
    See, I know I have a 'know-it-all' persona online because the only other time I type it's all business stuff. In real life you'd never guess I could be stuck up at all; it's the curse of the internet.

    There's hundreds of stripperweb members, and you probably only pissed off about 1-2% of them. And I doubt they were actually pissed. Too small of a number to throw in the SW towel.

    You had an opinion, and you had every right to express it. There will be some who disagree, but that's life! Don't let one little thing get to you.
    There's only so much you can learn in one place...

    NuhUh New Moon. I always enjoy your posts. Sure...you've got a strong point of view, but I never found you mean or degrading.

    you adminned a 200k user forum and you're tweaking out over other people 'posting strongly' right back at you?

    interesting...sounds like you prefer to post strongly where a penalty is attached for equivalent retort...

    You should have seen the backlash I got when I said (most) porn was evil and stripping might be bad for us. I honestly just wanted a discussion and I got called an alcoholic bitch and worse - keep in mind I posted the fact that I was having a problem with my drinking because I needed support and advice and had it used against me. SW can be awful, but it's mostly rad. Often, expressing an opinion that contradicts what others hold dear and truths that they base their life on brings out the worst in people, aside from the fact that the internet is a place where people can be dicks and hide behind a keyboard. This is like a real SC, you shouldn't leave just because a few people dislike you or disagree. Don't sweat it.

    seriously, male-dominated forums are way worse than anything SW girls dish out, so i'm pretty amazed the OP is made of glass when it comes to posting here.

    i'd be more inclined to sympathise if she wasn't all 'i hang with DOODZ on BIGGER FORUMS THAN THIS and am so TOUGH WHEN I POST then, but you GIRLS are MEEN to me!'

    if you really can 'post strong' with guys, SW should roll off your back like so much beaded water.

    not only that but im sorry you do come off as "i know it all" and all the "i was born beautiful and know everything about the industry" comments didnt help you in my eyes either.

    if you really are not like that then you should probobly word things better. just my opinion.

    I like you, but this is an unnecessary drama thread.

    Kind of like back in childhood, when a kid you liked perfectly fine asks, "Am I annoying?" The preexisting subconscious 'no' you might have had in your head gets transformed instantly into a 'yes'!

    So now she's gonna get bullied in this thread too? For fucks sake. If you don't like someone, there is an option to ignore you know.

    I belong to several forums where the majority of the population is male, and I have to say it's simply not the same as a female majority forum. It's like an entirely different vibe. Women are definitely better at "getting to" other women on a level that's a bit different and tougher in some ways than men ever could. Don't ask me to explain though, but I can see where NM might be coming from.

    Hang in there NM

    I never though you were a know-it-all, but I miss a lot of shit around here. There's a lot more resident know-it-all's running the board and you're not one of them.

    If you're starting to get worried about what people think about you on here maybe take a break to put SW back into perspective?

    Sometimes you have to step back and not put so much stock into trying to convince people over the internet.

    Stick around, whatever happened will blow over.
