Has anyone been to the SoapNet message boards? If you have then you will be able to relate. I am a huge General Hospital fan and that seems to be the board with the most threads on the SN message boards. It is a fun site and a great way to talk about GH. However, the board can get a little crazy at times. I have been a memeber for about 5 years now under various names. I remember when I first started posting there, there was a group of the same posters that would just attack me for no reason. It was like a high school clique picking on the newbie. Those 6 or so posters would gang up on new posters and try to scare them off the boards with personal insults, making imposter screen-names, and monopolizing the board. Since that first name I had that was attacked relentlessly, I have made other names and posted and been treated many different ways but it still came down to those same “bully posters” who like to control the board themselves. Now today, about five years later and a few new screen-names too, I am still a member of the board and no one on there knows that I was that one poster back in the day they used to gang up on. Many of those bullies are long gone and many still remain. I still see them bashing new posters, being rude for no reason and trolling like crazy. Within that fist year I posted on the GH board there were times when the fighting got so bad that the Moderators would come on and warn us to behave or the board would be shut down… and it actually was! They Mods would punish us by banning our names and at one point they shut down the entire GH board for a few days until people shaped up! As I said before, the board can get crazy at times but it is ALWAYS good for a laugh!
