Finding it a little hard to fit in. Everyone is great, but sometimes i just feel like a total outsider in the posts.
Y'all obviously know each other from the years of being here, and are closely knit. That is good, but let me in too 🥺 I mean no harm, will only steal food at most. 🥺
What do you mean by “fit in?” You seem to be fitting in faster than I’ve seen any new member integrate. There are some cliques here, but I’ve been here since the first week, and I’m still independent. Just be yourself, post, comment, chat if you desire, and maybe make some friends.
Honestly, I've yet to see you until just now. From what I see, the posts you've made have had good success, especially your first one. For me, I steer clear of the cliques because I'm not here to fit in with a specific group of individuals. That's not my thing. I prefer to keep my circle small, but try my best to be kindhearted and supportive to everyone. Be yourself and let go of the need to be liked by everyone and I'm sure you'll be just fine. 😉
Keep doing what you are doing. Not everyone is allowed in. There are many members who are almost totally ignored. Sad to see, but a reality. All social sites are the same. Many insular groups who shun anyone trying to "fit in" When I answer posts and everyone but my post is commented on by the original poster, I delete my post and stay away from those whom discriminate.

@Gusman Aww that is sad to read bro, about the last part there. If i ever accidentally leave you out, just know it's not on purpose <3
@SW-User Nah, does not matter. One becomes thick skinned, not playing their games. I enjoy my time here regardless. Many acquaintances have left but I still find plenty to post about and respond to.
@Gusman [quote]When I answer posts and everyone but my post is commented on by the original poster, I delete my post and stay away from those whom discriminate.[/quote] So much this!
You fit in here i have been on here for years and im considered an outsider very few people on here talk to me and when i try to make new friends people never respond back to me or ever talk to me which makes me feel like im not wanted on here
@choppers2244 You are not alone. There are many members here who get very few responses to their posts. I see some members will make 20 different posts and they might get 1 heart. Really sad to see and it is discriminatory. Cliques are everywhere through society and it is a sad indictment on those who practice discrimination.

@choppers2244 Hi choppers, sorry this has been your experience. Hang in there, we can do this 👍
I don't know people from years ago,or am part of a close-knit group. I observe, dip in here and there. Don't worry about "fitting in"; just do your thing 👍👏
Just mimick what we do and you'll fit in immediately : Become friends with someone, listen to their issues and be nice to them LATER make a post about that person and call them out and insult them for no reason.
We have created a lot of inside jokes over the years that you may never (fully) understand, but as you've probably already seen with the profile picture warnings, more are created regularly. If you stick around, you can be part of more and more of them.

@NerdyPotato I think i will be sticking around for sure, thank you Phoenix :)
@SW-User very good you might find that this is kind of a venting place for people to say it here because a user feels more comfortable here/fewer ppl are watching. Or a place ppl dump drafts, hanging story endings and the like. So just try to be rational understanding and patient. It's good conversation and perspective.
Just show up. You'll find your place and when people get a little
just escaped from the zoo, don't get offended or at least try not to and you'll do fine. I've only been here. Nevermind this place is just like the lyrics say. "You can check but you can never leave"
