Staggering Similarities in poster groups

AAAAAAAARGH!

Hivemind is the new Pantheon!

I missed out on the old pantheon. Care to fill me in?

You realise, of course, that you should include [Hivemind] in the title of this thread. Although if you wish, we'll try and avoid a thread-jacking.

I've heard stories of the Pantheon, but have no real idea of where the similarities lie. Anyone care to fill me in on this bit of board history? And explain whether being the new pantheon is something to worry about?

I wasn't a member, but it basically was a cliquish subset of posters (check) with lots of injokes (check) and custom deity portfolios (iconic status anyone?).

Are any of the members still around?

Hivemind = Fluff posters
Pantheon = Fluff posters

I see a pattern...

 

[Crothian]

I remember them. Interesting comparison.

 

[Knight Otu]

Do we need to choose portfolios, now?

 

[arwink]

We're a cliquish subset of posters?

Um. Yeah, I suppose your right. I hadn't really thought about it like that. I figure anyone stumbling along one of these threads is more than welcome to post something and get drawn into the fun. It's kinda how I ended up here. And the in-jokes are kind of easy to pick up when your involved, again, it's how I worked things out. But the same names do start showing in all these threads again and again, so you're right.

Er, Sorry?

Still don't know if this is a bad thing or not. Frustrating, maybe, but we're making an effort to contain this sort of stuff to the Hivemind threads where they belong. I certainly don't mean to offend anyone with my antics.

 

[Crothian]

WEll, I don't think we are as elitist as they were, may I may be wrong on that since I'm in now and was not then.

 

[Ravellion]

My "AAAAAAAAARGH" wasn't really serious. I jsut noticed this, and thought I would share.

After all I am still ca. 440 posts away from the prestige class...
