JPF Home Page Forums Lyric and MP3 Feedback Lyric Feedback Forum 2 A curious question?

There is a difference between a clique and a mutual support network, Rob. If someone wants to be supported, he or she must support others as well. It's a simple act of courtesy.

I do think some back slapping goes on. I also think some of the positve replies are genuine opinions. Critiquing is a real art and it isn't easy to do and everyone has different standards.

When a person is receptive to critiques and is willing to look at the critique and suggestions objectively (whether or not the proposed changes are made) he or she is more likely to be read. When that person returns the favor and does likewise a "relationship" is formed. That is not a clique that is networking.

Overtime things happen sometimes between members and "nonalliances" occur. However, that shouldn't stop any of the people from forming a network with more receptive people. Especially with new people who come on board.

This is a forum where people help each other. Does that mean we interact with people who are at different levels of experience? Does that mean that sometimes we act as teachers or mentors? Yes to both questions. We are here to both learn and to teach.
