What will happen at MindRomp? page 1
Floppit 1st February 2012, 09:26 AM 'I told you so' or 'I knew it'd work' after the fact is so... well... you know. I thought it'd be interesting to get some discussion up front.
I've never been around for the inception of a forum, even as a voyeur this is the closest I've been. I reckon I have some grasp on what brought MR into being, but perhaps not, my take on it is that MR was a response to watching as a group took on thinking as a group. Whether through democracy or loyalty it made for informative viewing as 'rules' were created and flexed in order to validate views of behaviour. (I'm really interested in how other's would sum it up too...). I'm not knocking Ratz, it wasn't an extreme process or an unusual one for a group to go through, it may well be that we are only a handful of soldiers convinced we are marching in time. But, the creation of MR takes it a step forward because it is going to be tested, we are doing that...
