We've had this discussion many times before.....if the Mudcat has a clique or inner-circle, it's one comprising of hundreds of people and is exclusive only in as much as most of us publish our names to go with our opinions/wisdom/advice/drivel.....that's it, that's all there is.Every now and then some poor, insecure soul pops his/her anonymous head above the parapet and whines about the percieved clique,has some gutless little dig at whoever they see first.....usually Kat, Rick or Spaw and then sits back and basks in the 'attention'.
The saddest thing IMO, is that he/she gets it.Take a look at some of the really worthwhile threads like Wes bringing Brendan home, it got twenty something responses.....now look at the Rick thread and this.....what do we learn from this, boys and girls? You get a good response if you are mean/gutless/anonymous here.....so sit back, there will be lots more.{End of rant}
