It's increasingly more awkward because of all the le prestige forum veterans who act like hot stuff just because they've been around longer than everyone else, and you get this with pretty much every online community. They're only relevant solely on the merit that they've been here forever and they aren't afraid to exploit the automatic credibility they get for it and come off as extremely jaded and misanthropic. |
