The narcissism wow! thread

[JohnR]

Why don't I see it?

[azSam]

It was moved to a private section, check the "just for us" section.

[Robert Scott]

I am so lost

[azSam]

I'll help you guys out. It was moved here ... but like I said, it's private. So you may not be able to see it.

I thought that pretty much all the threads except for the news were narcissism threads.

For the good of the order and all.

A person with narcissistic personality disorder:

* Reacts to criticism with rage, shame, or humiliation
* Takes advantage of other people to achieve his or her own goals
* Has feelings of self-importance
* Exaggerates achievements and talents
* Is preoccupied with fantasies of success, power, beauty, intelligence, or ideal love
* Has unreasonable expectations of favorable treatment
* Requires constant attention and admiration
* Disregards the feelings of others, lacks empathy
* Has obsessive self-interest
* Pursues mainly selfish goals

In other words, see: Sara Palin.

I guess I'm not a 'peer' so I can't see it.  What's above 'peer' - I think that's what I am.

If I may ask, what are the requirements to view that forum?  I can see the Just for Us section, but it says that the post is in a section that's off limits to me.

I think you may need to join the MtF Transsexual group. You need to request to join it (I don't remember how to do that), then a moderator or a group admin needs to accept it.

[JohnR]

It makes sense to make it a private thread. Even being in Just for Us doesn't prevent the lunatics from signing up and making enough posts to view that section. At least admin can make sure who they're giving access to this way.

Is the guys' thread staying public or will that be hidden too?

Yup, this is it.  Click "Profile," hover over "Modify Profile" and it will be the bottom option.

Too complicated, I've already lost interest... Oh, look, shiny things!

I applied for the MTF group because I post everything for my girlfriend cuz she's too shy, I hope I get accepted so I can post pictures there for her :/

Lol.. I would post more, but sometimes, despite my best efforts, I just can't figure out how to twist the topic being discussed into being all about me.

Yeah I started that thread and i'm locked out. Bummer. Can we just move it to "just for us" and not "defcon 5 lockdown darth vader secret jedi code room" security? Because, you know, narcissism and everything.

Also @tekla, for being a member of a minority that is constantly pathologized for claiming our identities, you were awful quick to peg the pathology on others. All people have some symptoms of every pathology- this doesn't mean they suffer from the disorder accompanying those symptoms in the DSM.

EDIT: I'm going to pre-apologize here. That response was bitchy. I'm sick and can't go climbing today so it's all me. Sorry!
