Do you think this board is cliquey?
Re: Do you think this board is cliquey?
I agree. Sometimes I find the board a bit Euro-centric, or to be more specific, London and The Netherlands specific, but overall I find the board welcoming. And it's nice to have a place where I can come and people will know what I am talking about when I whinge about missing candy corn and college football, or that finding green chilis that aren't jalapenos is darn near impossible.
I would love to be able to have an Aussie GTG, for the girls that aren't in Syndey, if only so I can be with people who understand what it's like to miss things from the US.
I love that you used whinge instead of whine! lol
An Aussie GTG outside of Sydney would be good, but I am so far in the sticks I most likely wouldn't be able to attend.
Exactly this goes for me too.
I could totally see how people could feel left out since so many of us live in London and see each other in person. I think if I was not in London and didn't get to see so many people so often I would feel the same.
However before I met people I felt welcomed very quickly. I'm glad I found this board and wish I found it sooner.

I am totally jealous of all you London ladies (for a variety of reasons) and in that sense feel left out, but I don't think it's anything you guys are doing.
I don't think it's cliquey beyond the "normal" amount that will happen when a bunch of people know each other and someone new comes along. But I remember being welcomed pretty quickly and felt like a regular right away. So maybe a bit, but it's pretty easy to break into if someone tries.
