Doug and Kristie have done a great job but the cliques (sp?) makes it hard for someone like me to want to show up to an event (kind of sucks to go half way across the country and not fit in).
Great site nonetheless, just answering the question (as implied). |
I hear where you're coming from. In the last 12 months I've heard of these "cliques." But besides the fact that some people might have known each other for a few years, there are no cliques.
I went to NJC not knowing a soul. I roomed with a complete stranger (Kelley aka MontanaPilot) and he was cool as hell. He and I had not one thing in common save JC.
Everyone I met was great. My military affiliation meant nothing, really - MikeD was there and we commiserated on things military, sure, but I spoke to everyone and hung out with everyone.
The clique thing is BS... if you are personable, you'll do fine. Hell, I wasn't even personable and I did fine.
