two wolves can have some minor spats here or there, but in the end, they share the same type of thinking. they agree with each others thoughts, they share similar views, similar thinking.
now that's all well and dandy, and if the whole community thinks the same way as the wolfpack does, thats still ok by me.... but if they use their numbers to "attack" a member of the community, and try to supress that member's opinion, ridicule that member to no end, because they think that member's opinion is stupid or bigoted, then they are just as bad as those said "idiots" and "bigots".
now whoever wants to take a machiavellian approach to these forums (or life in general) can. they can twist words around. they can use their intelligence to ridicule others instead of trying to help them understand their pov. they can pretend they are never wrong. they may even do a nice job trying to cover it up.
i will continue voicing my opinion. i wont try to hide my intentions. but at the same time i wont go out of my way to ridicule someone unless they have it coming. the funny thing is that marauder claims similar things. but i doubt what his true intentions are on these forums. the so-called "wolfpack", whether it is the threat of fascism, or an actual group of members here, will not prevent me from saying what i believe in. and i feel sad for anyone who sacrifices their opinion in order to appease that of others.

Either categorical disagreement is a way to 'share similar views', or bbarr and Scribbles are not both in the Wolfpack (we'd have to ask Ivanhoe about this), or your assertions are wrong.
must u always be the controversialist?

the fact remains that if it was ivanhoe writing about u, he would only get ridiculed for it, whereas u get recs. it's pretty clear to see that the wolfpack treats those who are close to them better than the rest on these forums.
