DS9 is actually my favorite Star Trek series. Not for the main cast, but for the overarching plotlines. It's refreshing to see some continuity. Also, the recurring characters were incredible: Gul dukat, General Martok, Garak, Vic Fontaine.

Oh, and NEST is fun.

DS9 was ok , It got better at the 2 hour episode Way Of The Warrior , still the most epic fight scene in Star Trek history

Back too topic...

Was my first time, and I never felt left out. I know there were lots of people who had been friends for years, but it was never a problem.
Guess someone got butthurt over feeling left out due to their anti-social nature 😛

I think this entire thread is an overreaction of NEST attendee`s. I haven`t seen any comments about cliques for quite some time, it appears some of you have an ax to grind with those who choose not to attend. As for being relegated to the Gatherings Section, this is exactly where they belong along with all the other gatherings. Thats why that section was created. What happened a few years ago should never have been allowed in the first place. I don`t think it would be an exageration to say there must have been close to a hundred NEST threads in the weeks prior and after. Both Tickling and General Discussion were turned into a giant high school yearbook with all the NEST shoutout threads. Any other thread was pushed to the back pages. This place was literally taken over for one month a year.

Personally, I have no problem whatsoever with a few NEST or other gathering threads being posted in TD or GD sections. Like others said, simply skip by them if they don`t interest you, just as the non foot people should ignore the "What celebrity do you most want to tickle" threads.

^ Exactly. There's a specific section for NEST posts: the planning, the travel, the thank yous, the whatever. Over a hundred people attend NEST and it bogs down the discussion areas when NEST thread after NEST thread is posted. A couple are easy to ignore, but when there are so many NEST threads that they bury all the other threads, that's not as easy to ignore and it's annoying when you have to go to the second page to find a discussion to post in. It's like dumping 20 silly threads in the general discussion, even though there's a section for silly threads. It bogs down the other threads, which wouldn't happen if you post the threads in the appropriate section.

Except for that one thread started by a nonNESTee and this thread, there have not been any bitching. And it's nice.

It's unfortunate there are some people who want to rain on people's parades, but keeping NEST threads in one area not only stops the bitching and whining but it also provides excellent material for people who curious about eventually attending NEST to learn about it in one spot rather than try to search for threads that are scattered all over the TK discussion.

I find it endlessly insulting that people continue to accuse those of us who choose to attend gatherings as being clique-y and exclusive. Either you people don't understand the meaning of the words you use or you haven't read even one of the gathering posts you like to bitch about.

Literally every single person on the entire internet is invited to NEST. I don't really know how much more nonexclusive it could possibly be. If you make the choice to not come because you can't afford it, or your job doesn't allow it, your family, your fears, not a fan of big groups, tickling is private...whatever your reason...that does not mean that you're being excluded. You are excluding yourself.

Furthermore, NEST is not the only gathering. There are several others throughout the year, all different sizes, different locations and with a different feel than the rest. If you can't or don't want to come to NEST, find another gathering. If you can't make any of them, hit up a local munch. They are everywhere, and more are popping up all the time. If you don't have a munch scene in your area, start one.

If none of these options apply to you and you prefer to keep your tickling experience to the TMF, clips4sale and whatever else you do to explore your fetish or interest, then fine. Do what makes you happy, but then let other people do what makes them happy without hurling insults at them because you can't/won't give gatherings a try.

For whatever reason, people think that NEST is full of cliques and exclusiveness. Bitching about people who are bitching about NEST does not help get rid of those beliefs. Instead it makes things worse. It reinforces those beliefs. And the most ridiculous thing about this thread is that it was started by a Mod!

NEST is huge so it's natural for people who already know each other to congregate and hang out with those people. But I don't believe that people are exclusive there. I hope the veterans help make the newbies feel welcome, invite them to join their groups of friends, and overall make their NEST experience enjoyable.

I laugh when reading NEST posts from people who attend.

NEST is a sausage fest of 100 men and 25-30 women... some of those women are a whole lot of woman that can skew the numbers in their weight alone.

The males posting their gratitude for cuddles and foot touching makes me wonder how much fun it could be in the orbit of those lovable losers. I'd avoid these guys and play with other girls too if I was a female in attendance. At least the less desirable girls act confident and attempt fun.

Most in attendance are in cliques that stay confined to their rooms and restaurants within a 1 mile radius from their rooms.

Most of the tickling at this gathering is mild, because so many people in attendance are strangers that do the bulk of their socializing online. Socializing online is not the same as socializing in person.

There is not much action being missed out on. Definitely a lot of room for improvement with regards to an actual tickling orgy happening.

Hurfdurf.

The really funny thing is that you imagine, even for a second, that anyone is going to believe you have a clue what you're talking about.

 

[Avenger314]

Can I bitch about the people who bitch about the people who bitch about the people who bitch about the people who bitch about the people who say that NEST is a clique?
And then multiply by negative one?

Only if you divide by zero...

The beauty of it, brother, is that we proved you can build a gathering and people will meet. Socialize. The good people get together and befriend.

We helped this. We didn't do it, we enabled it in our community. You, me, and a few dozen others like us, we made a way for folks to connect.

Yours, brother, was the biggest and best-attended. It's a success. I tip my many hats to you. To Lee who carries it on. Props and respect.

Out here, though, in Tickling Discussion, we're a TINY group amongst tens of thousands. With 100 out of only 10,000, that's a ratio 100-to-1 who have NEVER had the opportunity, for WHATEVER reason. Being without a group of your peers in an interest that makes us feel all manner of different, then seeing less than 1% enjoy such community, will tweak a body.

There’s thus tens of thousands who don’t know this love. Who maybe never knew this love. It’s all about the love, brother. F*** popularity and f*** bein’ the best/biggest/richest. It’s the love we have that makes us feel mighty.

That’s what the events are. The days BEFORE your event are now mightier than any event in the community, mine included. They’ve made a subculture of folks who now feel connected. Who socialize regularly, WITHOUT playing. Mad, huh?

We gotta hear about how it’s odd. It IS. Less than 1%. It’s literally like bikers in the town. We’re still not “normal” here.

Do ya wanna be normal here if it means not having met all the cool folks ya met? You can’t. I can’t, either. Met my wife through here. That’s not normal. ☺

Good to see you. Wish I could’ve visited. Hopefully next time. In the meantime and until, peace to ya. Ya know how it is when someone don't dig what you're playing. Y'know you're playin' it right, so just play what ya know, man. It's in the pocket and flowin' gracefully, IMO.

The only people who complain about cliques are the ones who feel left out. What's supposed to happen in a community of over 100,000 people? We're all supposed to get along like brothers and sisters in a Christian day camp?

I don't like to read foot posts but I don't whine about the thousands of people in the foot clique who post about it.

Cliques are what make the world go round. Diversity.

That's why I normally hate forums. In forums of every imaginable genre there is constant whining.

I read the whines and laugh at how stupid they are. I'm laughing now. Damn! Just spilled my granola.

That's why I love everybody.

Miss you DVNC. Hey Amy.

I hear it's about50/50 when it comes to nest male/female ratio... and well.. if you can't go up and talk to them, that's your problem.. And if you go to NEST because you're expecting some sort of tickle orgy then you shouldn't go. Yes, it's a tickle gathering, but it's not all about that.... It's about having a good time and putting faces to screen names.

And yeah I've heard that their are cliques but the people that seem to say that it's bad because they're are cliques are the ones that apparently just assume they are because they dont' go to NEST. the people that complain about NEST the most are the ones that have never experienced it...

Personally harassed for expressing our opinions!! Glad to see the NESTEEs haven't lost their Neo-Nazi Fascist Ideals ZIEG HEIL! ZIEG HIEL! ZIEG HIEL!

This coming from the ass that got mad at people for having a fun conversation about NEST expressing they're opinions of it and wanting them to stop....

stop being a hypocrite and an ass and let people enjoy NEST.

I don't get this whole clique thing. The term is just so...retro. Highschool was the last place I've heard it used and even then it wasn't thrown around this much.

For those of us who attended NEST for the first time, are we supposed to feel bad now because we decided to go? Because now we're part of a "clique"? I just don't get it. Naturally, us newbs are going to get a little defensive because we were welcomed with open arms, had a fantastic time, and left with more friends then when we started.

And while we're discussing "cliques" why not bring up the fact that the TMF Chatroom seems to have a clique of its own? With several well known users. And on several occasions, I've been made to feel like an outsider. Save for trivia nights, I don't go in there. The rest of us don't spend our time raining on their fucking parade, do they?

So fuck it. If NEST is a so called "clique" then so be it. I know which one I'd rather be apart of. And if you spend your time complaining about NEST without even giving it a shot, then your credibility becomes worthless.
