Social status exists everywhere. Don't think this site is above it. :lol:

Just by having items for your avatar you promote a social ranking amongst users. Plus you even said it yourself. unless people suck up to them is admitting that there is a status associated with Mene.

Yes, but I have not come to see users social ranking other users. I have seen it to mods, devs, and admin. I would suppose there would be a good excuse to suck up to them. They obviously want to get on their good sides. I have only come across that once, or twice.

1. There is a social status... and it's pretty noticeable... But for drama related issues I'm not going to get into that. And I see people "sucking up" to mods/devs/admins all the time ^.^;

2. You can like a community site and not the people. The people don't make the site. They influence it... but the content is controlled by the creator/s. And if someone doesn't like the art/layout/etc... they wont have a chance to like the community I'd think because I don't know about most people... but if I went to a website that was ugly and unappealing, I wouldn't join it ^.^;

However when you join a community, it's usually either word of mouth or first impression. Meaning either a friend convinced you to join or the site seemed so cool you decided to sign up on your own. So you enjoy the site... but then after a while you get to know the people... and maybe they aren't very nice, or maybe you just don't fit in because you have different views or different interests or what not. Maybe you just feel like you're being ignored or maybe you just don't seem to click with people. Either way the community part of the site becomes undesirable for you... but you still like the rest of the site. So it's possible. I mean even Menewsha has games and clothes/events... It's possible a person could like these parts or other parts enough to counter the community disinterest.

I understand what you're saying. I'm just saying it's possible that a person can like the site and not the people. Yet still be confused as to whether it's worth putting up with the people for the site, or not...

Anoni 06-02-2007 12:27 AM

Social ranking does exist on Menewsha and pretty much in any place where social interaction occurs. It might not be as clear as the top ten richest players list, but it's there. :lol: Being popular is already a sign of social ranking, and you can't argue that some users are more popular than others.

I've seen more than a few users suck up to mods. And quite a few users who suck up to other users as well.

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
I found it easier than at most sites to make new friends here.

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
I've never been in an argument here.

I don't have an enemies that i know of.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
N/A

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
Many people here, especially Trunitydoll and some of the others from her thread make me feel especially wanted here.
We do our best to welcome new members and I invite people from Fresh Meat to join if I think it would be of interest to them.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.
I would try and find out the reason why I was being outcast, and put a stop to it if possible.

  • Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
    I found it pretty easy to make friends here, rather than Gaia or other sites.
    It's a friendly community here, so like, yeah.

    Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
    With SOME people, it's easy to get into arguments here. Mostly no.

    Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
    I feel it is easier to make a friend on mene. However, i don't make many, being a /mostlylurker/

    Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
    Well, sometimes. But when I do get into arguments, I leave. XD

    Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
    Not really. I feel left out, yet pushed in.

    If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.
    I'd continue to get known. It wouldn't really matter.

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?

That depends on how you define 'friend.' If you mean is as in bosom buddy with whom I share everything, then I would say very difficult. I'm not that close to anyone on this site. Whether or not that will change really depends on the people.

If you mean someone with whom I can strike up a conversation, be silly, and just generally enjoy chatting with, then I would answer that, while it isn't as easy as certain people would make it sound, it is possible and much easier to do than on Gaia. (I haven't written a run-on sentence that long in years. O.O)

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?

Of course, especially when my pain pills aren't working. I'm eccentric and opinionated, with little desire to censor myself in order to fit into a 'norm.' When I'm in pain or someone hits one of my few hot topic buttons, my temper regresses about seven years along with my diplomatic skills.

Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?

I don't know if I can answer this. What most people would classify an 'enemy,' I would categorize as 'annoyance.' I've had less than a handful of enemies online in almost ten years of being online, and those were people who stalked me or otherwise disrupted all parts of my online and offline life.

That's not to say that there aren't people I really don't care for on Menewsha. There are, and I can't wait for an ignore feature so I don't have to go out of my way to avoid them and/or topics they've posted in. But I wouldn't call them enemies.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.

I get into more arguments now than I did at the beginning.

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.

I feel like I do at the majority of my sites; very mercurial in my interaction. Although I will say this, I do feel more comfortable posting my age here.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.

That depends. If I thought the site had potential I'd stick around, keep an eye on the newbies and bide my time until I felt there was a niche for me. If I didn't see potential, I'd hit the digital road. Greener pastures, and all.

Teddy 06-02-2007 05:31 AM

I think its easy to make friends here, a lot of the members are open and friendly, and some are more so here than on gaia, in my opinion. xD And its more easy for arguments to happen, since with a smaller community, you come into contact with each other more often. As for enemies, same reason as previous. :3 The menewshan community.... I don't really know. I came over and brought friends over so I haven't noticed as much. If I were an outcast, and for some specific thing I did that people can't let go, I suppose I'd create a new account and leave the old one, and start over. If its because I fail to make new friends, I'd try to be more friendly.

GainaSpirit 06-02-2007 10:27 AM


Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
Hum... I don't really know. I have met some sweet people around here and it's nice to talk with them.

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
I never got into an argument yet and hope i'll stay that way. I think I'll just avoid that person if that was the case and ignore it as we are on a forum board, that's quite easy.

Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
I don't know. I never got into a fight too on Gaia and never got friends with just a flicker of hand. I think it is the same hough, I'll probably have a larger friend list here as I talk the most around. I only talk in my shop on Gaia. Here, I talk a bit everywhere.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
No. I don't think it'll depends on that. I think if people wanted to get into an argument anyway, it'll happen, even if you had friends. Calling out for friends to help you in argument isn't the best solution >.<

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
Yes. When I arrived there, there wasn't lots of people around and I could met some people so it'll helped me stay around more ^^ People I met are nice.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do?
I don't think I'll ever be an outcast of the whole society unless there is a big conspiration under menewsha >.<; Though... I don't really know. It seems strange. Mayeb I'll get bored if no one want my art and go away and turn back to Gaia.

mangacatgirl 06-02-2007 05:28 PM

OK something I posted earlier is going to have to go on the first post for new posters to read...

Thanks for answering, to all that have, thus far.

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
It was a little challenging at first, but apparently, I have a fun personality! xD <3
Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
I personally am neutral about the arguments; I've never entered or started one.
Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
I think it depends on what your personality is, people just have bigger opinions about things, and tell them more loudly than others. x.x;
Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha?
I'm not really sure about this one. x.x;
Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted?
I'm not sure, some people might think that they're not wanted; but there's not a lot of people actually on this site yet. So it's a little hard to find someone with the same interests as you.
If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option?
I would try to blend in? x.x And I would still play descender. xD

  • Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
    No, not really. Some people are kind, but I just don't make friends easily. :/

    Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
    Hahah I think I've gotten into at least a few within the time I've been here. xD

    Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
    For me, it's probably an enemy, but it's not that much loathing. It's more like a simple argument that we forget about later.

    Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
    Yes, actually it is. When you're by yourself, you are usually more on the defensive so you could get angered a bit by words from others you don't know.

    Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
    I'd have to say it really depends on the person. I feel it welcoming...or at least I did before. Though sometimes I just try to stay away from all the people I don't know because things get a little heated.

    If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.
    Hahah I've had that happen a lot to me. I usually stick it out, because I'm there for the silly pixels. xD I could always go to a more welcoming community without avatars, but then it's not as much fun. :/

videotape 06-02-2007 10:30 PM

I'm recently joining here... hope it's a good site

Uthopia 06-08-2007 03:32 PM

On Gaia it's pretty easy to make friends and enemies, but here, since I can't check back to my posts as easily as I can on Gaia, I can't really tell if people are yelling at me in rage or what not. But, since I'm fairily new here, I can't really say what's easier. Hopefully friends would be the easiest. :o

Kitmew 06-08-2007 09:34 PM

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?

Yes, because people are extremely kind to me.

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?


No, I do not find it easy to get into scuffles or arguements since I am a person who does not argue over things, and have not so far.

Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?


I feel that is quite easy to make a friend since people are so interactive and friendly here at Menewsha. No one has been rude to me since I joined and I don't think I've made any enemies either.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.


It truly depends on the person, what type of friends you have, and the personality all of you have. I wouldn't say yes or no to this question. But only that it certainly depends on Conflict.

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.

The Menewsha community does definitely make me feel very welcome and wanted in the "family" community. The people are friendly, interactive, and the rules are well established in order to have even received this.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.


If I were to find myself like an outcast in the Menewsha community, I would simply leave silently. But I do not believe this would be likely to happen to me or others, since the community would be unlikely to do so at all.

Yir 06-09-2007 03:10 AM

i think i have an enemy here. its funny because hes really really obsessed with being correct

Naeru 06-09-2007 03:19 AM


Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha? Depends on how hard I try. I can talk to some people, but they'll probably forget about me the next day .____.;;

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
Not really, since I don't really talk about controversial things and I my best to not offend anyone with anything

Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha? A friend... I haven't made any enemies yet (I think). Although there aren't many people here I'm particularly close to that I do not know already from other sites.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain. Well, it could be... but I don't know since I've never gotten into a fight here before.

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
Not exactly wanted, but not exactly unwanted. I'm not a popular member that's for sure, and I didn't really do anything beneficial for the community, so I'm just your average member.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.

I'd leave, but occasionally check back and see what's new. I dunno, maybe there was a change in atmosphere or something. But I definitely would not be as social and talkative as I was before.

Shakey 06-09-2007 11:26 AM

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?

Pretty much, yeah since it's a very small community, although it's increasing heavily. Everyone here is very friendly, especially when I first joined :3

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?

No, I dont usually get into arguments online. I find them pointless and stupid, besides. Like I said above, the majority of Mene are nice people and I'd hate to change things xD

Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?

I find it easier to make friends and I have yet to experience anyone who I deteste.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha?

No, because I'm not the type of person to get into arguments online. I like to sort things out face to face...And I dont mean by webcam.

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted?

Well sometimes. But there was only one time I felt unwanted, I went in to a thread where everyone knew eachother and I said hi and how are you? etc, they answered, but then afterwards, they treated me asif I was invisible and only talked to one another. That was really annoying. But then again, more people have made me feel welcome than the people who haven't.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do?

I'd stick it out, I'd eventually make friends anyway :3

  • Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
    I go from one topic to another so I'm not sure if I'm making any friends at all and I'm still getting used to not lurking.

    Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
    I did not get into arguments because the people here are friendly for the most part.

    Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
    I think it is easier to make friends than enemies on Menewsha.

    Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
    No, because I don't argue over the internet because it's lame.

    Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
    Yes, this small community makes me feel like we're a small community internet family. o_o

    If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.
    I would stay for a while and if I would ever feel a bad vibe then I would leave, but that's not the case so far.

Suteki 06-16-2007 08:58 PM

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
Currently, yes, since it's still small, and you run into a lot of people over and over.

Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
Nah. Though I rarely argue in real life, so that might explain why :3

Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
I think that it's easier to make friends here. Fewer people are open to arguing or controversy here than other sites that I've been to, so without as much arguing, it's harder to make enemies.

Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
I don't think so. I mean, I don't think that just because you have friends would mean that you can't argue with others.

Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
Yes. People here seem nicer to me for the most part, and they're more willing to talk with others.

If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.
I'd probably leave. If not, then I'd just post responses to topics to earn gold to show it off, just to spite others.

Katurine 06-16-2007 10:28 PM

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha? Why, yes. I just joined on Friday, but everyone's so nice so far...
Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?Nope, I don't even try to. I hate arguments.
Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?A friend, I suppose.
Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain. Nope, not at all. Not having any friends doesn't have anything to do with getting into arguments, I think. It's rather about the general attitude a person has.
Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.Yes, it does. I got warmly welcomed when I first joined. My comments aren't ignored.
If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.
I think I'd deal with it somehow. I always was a bit of an outcast when I was in school and I learned to deal with it.

kin no megami 06-17-2007 12:04 AM

Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha? So far that's a yes
Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha? Nope
Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha? Friends
Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain. No I don't think so.
Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain. Sure!
If you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain.

Well I'd probably stick around if I liked the site still even if no one talked to me :P

  • Do you find it easy to make friends on Menewsha?
    I don't think it is very easy , but then again I would'nt really know very well. I am new here and I haven't made any friends at all TT^TT;; * lonely * . Maybe I should find a place on here and Stick to it to make some friends . . .

    Do you find it easy to get into arguments or scuffles on Menewsha?
    I don't think it would be easy to get in a argument on here , The people here seem very friendly and you would have to pick them alot to get them to snap which I don't see a point in trying to fight.

    Do you feel it is easier to make a friend or make an enemy on Menewsha?
    Hum. . . I haven't made a friend or a enemy but I think it would easy to find a friend because I bet alot of people on here have the same interests like anime , art , etc.

    Do you find it's easier to get into arguments and scuffles when you lack many friends on Menewsha? Explain.
    Well . . . I haven't gotten to any fights or arguments so far however I do think it could increase wanting to get into a argument , just because xD. But I know im not going to try to get into anything because it's plain stupid and I wouldn't have anyone to back me up xD.

    Does the Menewsha community make you feel like you are welcome/wanted? Explain.
    The Menewsha communtiy does make me feel welcome even though I don't know very many people , It just seems sweet ya know? It gives off vibes ^_^.

    f you were to find yourself feeling like an outcast in Menewsha society... what would you do? Leave? Stick it out? A mysterious third option? Explain
    I would probably go and quietly leave the site for awhile and go hang out on gaia for a bit and in the future come back on here and try to stick out , make a comeback ^_^.
