Hi Nitehawk,
The supposition that there's some exclusive circle within TOTV has been made before. I'm curious why.

New and veteran posters often banter back and forth among each other. We befriend each other. We tease each other. For some posters, this is not their cup of tea. No problem. Each has his/her own style and the vast majority of posters has something of value, positive or negative, witty or wise, on the mark or funny off the wall to contribute. Some of us can be quite silly at times (Guilty as charged. That's just me).

FWIW, the notion of being "outside the circle" reminds me of a poem by Edwin Markham called, "Outwitted":
He drew a circle that shut me out —
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in.
