or what other part of it is venomous, the fact that Tribe posters are a lot older and at different points in their lives? It IS the truth.
RJ, stated that he did not like what was going on on TOTA. He did NOT mention that it is better somewhere else. Who are the people that brought up Tribe in the first place? Instead of stating what can be done to improve TOTA, like most other people in this thread, karim and you have both stated how more mature the Tribers are. Why add more fuel to the fire? Maybe, you did it subcontiously, but you did exactly what I was talking about. Posting something that will get a reaction out of people. Everyone on TOTA knows that most of the TBK (and i'm talking about not every single poster, but the ones on the inner circle of Tribers) thinks low of TA. Why bring up the issue yet again?

Tribe was not brought up to add fuel to the fire. You are letting personal negative views about tribe interfear and dictate how you took our posts. Tribe was brought up simply because it is a message board, that is VERY MUCH ALONG THE SAME LINES as TOTA. A music community discussion group that discusses other things such as politics, religion, beliefs etc. The key difference is, that there isn't nearly as much flaming between members. Sure many are at different points of their lives, however age is but a number. You can't simply state that they're older as an excuse for TOTA being less civilized, that's insulting to TOTA itself.
You state that many tribers don't like TOTA's. Possibly because they got flamed out of TA and found TRIBE to be a more welcoming community. You can't deny that many people have left TA because of the politics that take place here. In a recent thread on tribe that criticized TA, they mentioned many of the same points that RJ mentions in his original post. It's not a coincidence, it's because it's true.
Tribe does have it's faults. I've seen it moderated rather heavily and questioned some of the boards actions. Infact, there's a fair share of immature people on there that take things too far.
Tribe was not brought up to be a TRIBE > TOTA discussion. I mentioned it to point out that even people outside of this community see tota's faults the same was as many of us see our own. What makes tribe so different? Age we can't change. Maturity we can. We all need a lesson in message board discussion tactics.
