<p>People come and go. It's just funny to see how many new people join while others leave within such a short period of time.</p>
<p>Inconsist*e*ncy.</p>
<p>Did you sign a contract stating that you have to spend the rest of your life on CC?</p>
<p>^ lol.</p>
<p>I' started when I became a senior and now I'm a freshman in college who still goes on CC at least once a week.</p>
<p>Well, people only need CC for certain college information...</p>
<p>rockermcr don't you know inconstancy is a word? Inconsistency does not make a lot of sense. Does it?
As for the post I was thinking of writing a paper on how online communities follow RL principles such as survival of the fittest and an adherence to mores developed over time, probably exploring the nature of forums and such..</p>
<p>survival of the fittest?
what?</p>
<p>DOUBLE YOU TEE EFF</p>
<p>Dude..........</p>
<p>LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL</p>
<p>no comment!</p>
<p>This is a festive thread.</p>
<p>why? does it seem funny?</p>
<p>Inconsist*a*ncy isn't a word. You can attempt to prove to me that it is, but you'd only make a fool of yourself.</p>
<p>rocker...............you're making a fool of yourself........or you're going blind.</p>
<p>OH. Hehe. I was sure it said "inconsistancy." Wow.</p>
<p>OH. Hehe. I was sure it said "inconsistancy." Wow. My apologies.</p>
<p>The OP joined in December 2007 and has already come to this conclusion.</p>
<p>I made this username bc i got sick of my old ones. I don't come here much anymore. I've been here a lot more lately though since I'm on the verge of getting accepted somewhere.</p>
<p>bravo OP! I thought like this too. I don't see what's up w/ rockermcr.
anyway, Self Interest Drives People in Doing whatever they do....yep, yep...PURE SELF INTEREST>....< and I mean everyone, not just who goes away. ;)</p>
<p>what year are we in?</p>
<p>oh....never mind..</p>
<p>Well I agree that the world runs on selfishness but then when does the urge to give back to society develop? I was studying Piaget and Kohlberg's stages of development in depth and wondering is it simple barter on CC? Give and get? But why do some people choose to go out of their ways to help others? Are the stages wrong? How would you explain the behavior of mere 8th graders or maybe a little higher? Is it just attention seeking behavior?</p>
<p>"Did you sign a contract stating that you have to spend the rest of your life on CC?" -rockermcr</p>
<p>actually you did. By agreeing to the terms of agreement when you made your account, you agreed to spend the rest of your life here.</p>
<p><em>hopes that no one actually read through all that</em></p>
