This board has been insulted plenty of times lately, so I think a thread about some of the positive affects this board had on us is in order.
I'll start:
1)Just because a preson is 18+/30+/40+ doesn't mean s/he has to be mature.
2)There are some decent, intelligent people everywhere, even in astrology message-boards.
3)Decent, intelligent people can turn to asshats very quickly.
4)People would happily stay ignorant as long as it satisfies their ego.
5)Elucidation is key to communication at a high level.
6)Velvet Underground is not a punk band.

Yeah, I couldn't really get into most of their stuff either.

People generally reach out to quench "curiosity" and to rationalize "fears".

U simply dont splash the board with stories of joy and cheer...those things are mostly kept private.

So the situation is anything but morbid on DXP boards.

A little bit here and there about the dynamics of a few signs.

i know, what's up with that? seriously, though, i can't think of a better way to describe it. besides maybe a pseudoscience but that only covers the inexact part, not the social.
