MSN groups are NOT websites
Does this opinion makes me an elitist, an obnoxious? I don't think it's a question of ego or not. Any moron can make a MSN group. It's like making a .doc file, but in Internet, really. You need zero mental effort for building that... thing: just write a few lines about all the things you like, upload your whole folder full of ripped-off galleries and spam people's inboxes for them to join. Most people doesn't give them any sense at all. Yeah, so x group is about Shaman King, Sailor Moon, Evangelion and LOTR, even though that has nothing to do whatsoever, for example.
But no, MSN groups are not websites, despite everything their so-called "webmasters" say about it. And I won't be hypocrite: LJs are not websites either, except if you pay for your account and can make a layout.
My point is, anyway. If I refuse or ignore affiliation from a CCS/HP group made by a 14 year-old girl, does that make me a bad person? Am I an egocentric jackass for not considering a group full of Japanese fanarts, the same Sakura pictures and Daniel Radcliffe photos an actual site? That is the question...
And don't give me the "making sites is hard" crap. Anyone can make a simple, plain site in Geocities or whatever these days. Heck, I know of 14 year-olds that make sites better than mine, which look like crap besides their l33t graphic skillz. Oh well...
