We could get along if you weren’t such an asshole

A recent posting on a forum that I used to frequent got me thinking. In it, a user that had been “done wrong” decided to dedicate his life to making sure that everyone on the intarweb knew that the mods and admins of the forum that had perpetrated these wrongs had been taken to task and exposed for the weenies that they are. So he created his own competing forum that was going to shine where the other forum failed.
The last time I had checked it, the thread had fallen short of it’s comedic potential but the seed had nevertheless been planted. I got to contemplating the urge in people to split from an existing group or community only to create another group or community. So there. Neener, Neener. The only difference is that you have no user base and you’re going to spend your time on your forum talking to yourself.
