I gotta say, I haven't enjoyed alt.gothic this much in years.

It's good clean fun.
Retardboy [1] came in spewing allegations of cheating at [livejournal.com profile] the_siobhan, [livejournal.com profile] hellsop, [livejournal.com profile] the_macross and rest of us because we'd caught Dallas's C14 bid cheating.

Everyone (and I mean everyone) told him to fuck off. He brought along a couple of sockpuppets who got the same treatment.

It was like a community closing ranks on an enemy outsider. Pretty well unheard of in my experience, and totally worth skimming through (Retardboy gets a bit repetitive after a while).

The subsequent plan for a net.goth get together in Saratoga Springs next year is also promising.

[1] The C13 committee chair. Posting anonymously and claiming to have no vested interest. Naturally we figured out who he really was after a bit of research.
