female here... 😕 and this all way to serious and personal sounding to me... you have an interesting way of slamming people while simultaneously appearing to beg for their attention... I have no idea how old you are.... but I might suggest some of those books become self-help books... enjoy your time here... don't spend time on people you don't think like you.. life is way too short for that... no of us know how much time we have, so be happy
Originally posted by Miss HopeI do that too,Lyn.
I have decided to not reply to everyone's post individually, but rather make a post that includes (hopefully) everyone.
I have started a clan before this one- The Readers. I thought this was a very good idea. I have probably read more books in my short lifetime than many do in 30 years. This clan did not "force" anyone to join. I do not "force" any ...[text shortened]... etween light and day, heaven and hell, freezing and boiling!
None of you can understand this.

First of all, this suggestion has nothing to do with "clans" or you wanting one. This is a "how Miss Hope might get along better" suggestion.
Don't suggest that people are "probably just lazy". They might be "probably terminally ill" or "probably working 22 hours a day" or "probably not at all interested in forming OR joining a clan" for all you know.
By telling your opinion of them, ie, "probably lazy"... you don't make friends. You make "indifferent kibutzers" at best and disdainful critics at worst.
As to you reading a lot of books, it only goes to show that there is more to learning and life than reading. Your people skills are terrible.
Don't paint with such a broad brush. You say "none of you can understand this" and it implies a total indifference on your part. If you TRULY want to form a clan, a cynic might argue that you are "filtering" for malcontents and/or paranoids. I have lived happily with the same woman for 32 years, raised a daughter who now has her own family. To tell me I don't understand "woman" would be better said that I might not understand you. We are all people... that is the only level of differentiation that is required for basic communication such as that found in the forums. Being female or male or OTHER... is totally irrelevant.
Finally, as to joining your clan. I don't want to join any clans. If I did, I would consider joining yours.

This letter of frustration is to the entire RHP community,
In starting my own clan, I have now found out how much people DON'T like me. I was hoping to find the opposite. My mysterious absence from the site was probably appreciated by all. Shall I leave again?

I don't know a lot of people that have posted in this thread, including you. But, from what you appear to be, I consider you a friend. You say it as it is and I'm very glad we have people in this community like that. You seem like you know what you're talking about in anything that you talk about (I've been searching the forums and reading some of your other posts). You are a great asset to the RHP community. Stick around. My best friend on this site said that you have helped him alot- and I thank you for that!
As for all you other bums (and I use this term for a reason),
You have problems- and so do I. We all have our own special way of dealing with them. You choose alcohol. I do not. It is a bad habit. I recommend dropping it!

I feel embarrassed at having to share my Veggie Clan membership with someone as egotistical, small minded and quite frankly stupid as Miss Hope appears to want to be.
What an intelligent and kind man like Mephisto was thinking about when he accepted her I can only guess. However the sooner she finds her own Clan the better.
To everyone else, please forgive her. The Veggies are a good bunch, and we HOPE (sic) that normal service will soon be resumed.

You will be missed.This really is a sad time.

That aside, why attack everyone? I am sorry if you have put effort into creating your clan and do not feel you have achieved the reward you envisiged when you stated out. Thats life though, sometimes things just don't work out, and blaming everone else will not solve anything.
Why not just play some chess for fun, its a game and games are supposed to be about fun.

You are not a bum. Only a few people that posted towards the end of this thread are.
They know who they are.
