Dude,
What the fuck are you babbling about? Let me quote you here, "... gosh, like half the people there are actually from the industry" Ok, half the people? Name them. Yes, there are a few, but believe it or not, there are a few here too.
You ramble on with this "...its great to talk to them
everybody is very nice and complimentry..." that's just gay. Yes, everyone is nice...and phony. Here's the deal, if you want to get real and talk about the industry, stars, issues, personal agendas etc. and do it honestly, this is the place. Otherwise, seek other sources. Maybe you're soft. Maybe you're like all the other sheep in this world that need to be lead and can't handle the reality. Maybe you need your news censored and your opinions made for you. Maybe you need a big brother type looking over your shoulder and watching everything you post. Figure it out.
