No offense, but you don't know that. The moderators around here seem to have a habit of stating their opinions as fact. |
That's because we've been around here a long time and have read posts that have revealed information. Scroll down to September 16th of the Cassie Timeline sticky.

The prob. with non YTCassie discussion is that they really have been confirmed to not being part of what YTCassie is doing. That means that everything they say will distract from the YTCassie ARG - really. On the otherhand - if any of them manage to actually put something together that is compelling maybe more so than YTCassie, then I'm sure people will want to follow their stuff. So far it has been both distracting and as far as I can tell, exceedingly lame. |
This isn't an ARG board, though. Those interested in just solving Cassie's clues can hang out at the unforms. This is a fansite, where fans want to discuss everything even remotely related to the thing they're fanatical about. If you go to your favorite band's website you'll find people talking about similar music, and covers, and parodies, because they're interested in that stuff.
Also, MySpace Cassie is fake, but no more fake than YouTube Cassie, which is no more fake than lonelygirl15. I choose to ignore MySpace Cassie, but I'm not going to get upset with people who don't. |

I respect the moderators, by the way, for taking the time to try and organize threads and move them to the proper forums. I just don't think moderators should be stating their opinions as fact, because they only have ideas as strong as yours or mine but people will blindly follow them assuming that they've got some sort of inside scoop.

No inside scoop, just well-versed in past threads on this board and capable of logical conclusion making. YT CiW started this game. She is the only one to have provided clues that have had a real world presence. She has been the only one to initiate subsequent steps in the story. No other Cassie has propelled the story forward or has given us anything useful to work with.

I've been here longer than you. You're missing my point: people should be able to discuss whatever they want without constantly being told that their opinions are invalid. |

I doubt anyone disputes that. However, there are other places to discuss things not YTcassie. There's "Cassie - MySpace and Ebay" and "Assorted Videos and Accounts" for those discussions about any other Cassie that might pop up.

Not if those opinions stand to discredit information that has already been revealed to be fact.
Yes YT Cassie is fake, but its her game alone. CiW is an ARG now, and this subforum is now about an ARG.

Agreed. Threads posted in the wrong forum should be moved. The problem is that people will naturally bring up correlating ideas in threads that are about YouTube Cassie, and when they do they're told that their idea is wrong and not worthy of discussion. |

You're not in charge of peoples opinions, nor deciding what is fact. Obviously you feel very strongly about your stance, but it's not the only position to take. Clearly people here are interested in these discussions, and they will have them no matter how many times somebody says that it's stupid. The community will decide on its own.
Right now there are three annoncements posted at the top of this forum -- two by you and one from Terryfic. Both of yours say exactly the same thing: do not talk about any other Cassie. Terryfic's says "I would advise you" to keep discussion focused on YouTube Cassie. The difference is slight, but important, and there is no need for two additional announcements. |

It probably would be a good idea to combine elements of the other two announcements into the new one, since the new one provides links and other extremely helpful information. One longer and more detailed announcement would be more effective.

I think the argument is perfectly valid, and there's certainly no reason to lock Sephern's thread. We can simply split the arguing posts into their own topic and leave this thread to its original purpose. |

I don't think that "I've been here longer than you" is a valid argument.
For all we know, we probably have lurkers not even registered that have been here longer than everyone...

Oh, I agree -- actually that was my point. I was responding to twjaniak's post saying he states his opinions as fact because he's been here a long time. My point was that I've been here longer but have a different opinion than him, so how long you've been here doesn't seem to matter. Sorry if that wasn't clear. |
