I mosey on into Whyville Square and what do I see? About nine people sitting around. About three people don't have face parts. Some can't talk because they don't have permission from their parents, though some of the apparent "newbies" can talk. But no one is talking to them. I don't even see them talking to each other! A couple of the oldbies are talking to each other. A few are leaving. Going to play games or something.

Well, I get bored. Go into Whyville West. One other person is there, a "newbie". I'm about to say hi but they are already gone. I go in to the playground. WHOA. I can't even count how many people are in here. (Well, I could, but it'll take me forever, LoL!) All I hear are these phrases:

    "If you think I'm hot press 123"
    "Asl?
    "Hi"
    "Hey! You stole my outfit!"
    "Did not! I thought of it first!"
    "Did Not!"

Ok, that was interesting. Now why are those two gals fighting? Oh! I see. They are wearing the same outfit. Oh, hmmm. That really IS a big deal! I wonder if they knew what they were typing to each other was ridiculous. No, I think not. But is the same outfit a reason to fight? And it's not even the same outfit. They just have the same shirt.

I know a solution! One of them just leaves and changes her shirt! Huzzah.

Well, that's not the only reason people fight on Whyville. Listen to this conversation:

Newbie: "I just started playing Whyville a few days ago! Can anyone spare a few clams?"
Oldbie: "Go away, ugly newbie!"
Newbie: "No!"
Newbie: "So can anyone spare some spare clams?"
Oldbie: "I said SHUT UP!"
(It goes on, but I'll stop here.)

Now I look up these "oldbies", and it turns out that they only started two or so months ago! Is that an oldbie? I don't think so! I don't think they're even real citizens if they treat people like that. At most they can call themselves an "inbetweenie", ha!

Why does anybody they think they are better than people without face parts (a.k.a. newbies)? Because THEY have face parts? Oh yes, that is important. I have face parts and YOU don't! How childish. Don't these people remember when they did not have any face parts? Don't they remember what its like to be a newbie? I guess not. All that matters are their precious face parts. Sure, they may look good. But inside they are nasty. And what do they get? A few articles calling them bullies... maybe it makes them feel better putting other people down. That's wrong. But, newbies, you shouldn't beg for clams and face parts either! Go to Grandma! Raise your salary by playing games! Don't beg! Or some bully might put you down!

Well, I gotta go, it's getting late.
