It's much nicer not being in the group any more. I dropped them about a week ago.
Yes, you're describing it perfectly. And funny story, just like that, poof! They kicked me off last night because I called them out for being ridiculous. I've never seen a site so childish ever. So word of warning, DO NOT JOIN. They're a bunch of wannabe bullies, you'll regret it. Oh, and I'm just about certain, that the people that run the site are a business that buys and sells dvc points. They advertise every other post, and set up posts to sound like you're really trying to figure out what to do with your points, and voila, there's the advertisement. It got so old. Good riddance!
It's something like Myspace.What's Facebook?
There's a lot of great info in that group and the group description basically says don't join if you're easily offended.
Or maybe they are like me and remain members for the valuable information that is often posted and overlook the childish humor (toilet Tuesday anybody?) in order to get itSarcasm runs deep in that group. Problem is that people don't understand sarcasm anymore. They take themselves way to seriously anymore. They don't like the group so they go elsewhere to complain & whine. Get over yourselves. Don't go around picking on a group just because it wasn't your cup of tea. Apparently there are a lot of people who get it or the member count wouldn't be so high.

I don't know how many there are, but I left one several months ago. I was involved in a discussion about a wedding in the Magic Kingdom. The post went crazy.....people being so incredibly rude and immature (as you stated.....they hid behind they were joking or I was just "too sensitive'.). I left the group. That nonsense is a complete waste of my time. Yes.....the mods seemed VERY immature.I joined a while back, and I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to unjoin this ridiculous group. I've been on the Dis for many, many years and I'm so used to questions being answered, period. They hide behind, "well, if you don't like our quirkiness (a guise for high school behavior), then leave the group. The moderators are straight out of high school, seriously. Finally, today was a decent thread, of many responses of how many years you've been a dvc member. Then, a moderator comes along and starts this insanity of a million memes and sends it off into clown college. I think I've had it. But its like a train wreck. Does anyone belong and how long could you take it before discontinuing the nonsense?
