~smiling sweetly~

I tend to read, mostly ... only posting occasionally.

Even though a few of the BB regulars insist on drawing a bold line of demarcation (chatters vs BBers), we are all part of the Literotica community.
 
Okay cause I generally remember who I've chatted with for the most part but to forget a name like yours would have been embarassing.

I think that's what I said in another thread.

I'd add "same community, completely different neighborhood."

Chat to me is like some of the neighborhoods of my community that are about 20 to 30 miles away from me. I never ever go there. Nothing wrong with them, I'm sure the people who live there love them. They just aren't part of my personal universe though. Nothing wrong with that, either.

Seriously though, what's with THAT???

I don't recall having to make a choice when I became a member at Lit ...
was there a form that I missed designating BB or Chat? I frequent ALL of Lit on a daily basis ... chat, the General BB, the SRP board, the stories.

Some General BB regs might call me a "lurker" because I prefer to read rather than post ... as I'm sure many Lit members do. I enjoy a lot of the personalities here on the BB, as well. But, I'm afraid the "them vs us" attitude originated long before my previous post. If you doubt me, just do a search on the word "chat" and see for yourselves.

And by the way, I sincerely doubt that any of you would receive a similar reception in chat. I wouldn't dream of calling any of you names like "assholes, morons, idiots" ... I might tell you to go fuck yourself, but it would be in a nice way.

~smiling sweetly~ "Have a nice day!"
 
Its not a matter of are the people on the BB better than chat - or chat better than BB or anything inbetween. Its just that there is some suspicion whenever someone with only a couple posts shows up on the BB and acts like they know everyone (I hope I said that right - no offense meant). In general the people on the BB almost NEVER go to chat and therefore don't recognize the names of the chatters - I get the impression that a number of the chatters might read the BB even if they don't post much - so the chatters tend to have an idea of who's who on the BB but the reverse is not true.

The "suspiciousness" is especially evident when it comes to someone with only a handful of posts to their name saying "hey I'm going to come to Vegas and meet everyone" - the effect is like someone you've never met showing up at a party at your house.

Please try and understand that viewpoint - and I really don't think anyone means anything nasty by it. There are people who have shown up who have never been on the BB or chat and said - "I'll be there" - you have to wonder what it is they're hoping to get out of it? One might thing, this being an erotic site, that they're expecting a giant orgy or pick up scene. This event is more like a bunch of friends getting together and not some sex party.

Certainly EVERYONE is welcome - especially BB and chat regulars. I worry that I may have worded this wrong and unintentially offended someone - please understand that is not my intent. It might help if people with not many BB posts to their name just say something like - "wow - I've been coming to Lit for months and months now and this sounds great!)... you know?

BTW - to answer the original question. I'm an ex-chatter myself. I first found the stories here - then found chat and spent many many months in chat and have made friends there. Only after months did I discover the BB and I really haven't been back to chat since then. Nothing personal in that at all - I just find that the BB suits my style better.

I'm looking forward to meeting both BB and chat friends in Vegas.

Pleased to meet you, Dillinger ... I'm Cherry

Point well taken. However, I wasn't referring to the Shelby thread by my comments, but rather those threads that related to a concern in chat which were lambasted by insulting posts by BB regs who gave the distinct impression that Literotica was limited to one or the other feature (chat or BB).

Some of the BB regs may feel that posters who chat are unwelcome and don't belong on the BB ... however, this forum was the proper place to discuss chat problems. It's a "discussion board" which also provided a good way to get Laurel's attention. Certainly, if the subject of "chat" didn't interest some of the BB regs, then they had the option to disregard.

As for those people who enjoy both the chatrooms and the BB, those threads provided a way for us to gather our thoughts and post them less sporadically (more coherently) than we would have been able to do in the chat lounge. In fact, Laurel's intervention and solution was derived from those discussions.

I appreciate your explanation though.
 
GASP!

~looking at Dillinger's *smile*~

OHHHHHHHH!

Nooooo ... that must have been CherryPOP!
(I blame all of my bad behavior on her)
