Groupthink-
Quote:Irving Janis, who did extensive work on the subject defined groupthink as, Symptoms of Groupthink: Quote:His/Her eight symptoms indicative of groupthink: Abiline Paradox- Quote:The Abilene paradox is a paradox in which the limits of a particular situation force a group of people to act in a way that is directly the opposite of their actual preferences. It is a phenomenon that occurs when groups continue with misguided activities which no group member desires because no member is willing to raise objections. It was observed by management expert Jerry B. Harvey in his article The Abilene Paradox and other Meditations on Management. Note: Bolding is mine |

Chiquita:
Groupthink IS Cultthink. I can see no difference in behavior, objective or motive. I know Poopers object to being called cultists, but that's what they are. Individuality has no place in Poopland. This is fine -- they can be whatever they please. IT'S JUST THAT THEY ARE NOT BUSINESS-PEOPLE and WAG-L-POOP IS NOT A BUSINESS, in any way, shape or form, in the capitolist, Western, USA sense of the word. The only ones who benefit from the business of cults are its leaders and this is not how successful American businesses are run. Innovation, free-thinking, freedom of expression and creative license to all associates are all part of the most successful business models. Wag-L-poop has none of these. |

Quote:As for Tulip Tool thread about Wagglepop. hmm we have people who are posting over 3,000 posts in order to get credits to advertise with Tulip Tool. I find it rather a pity and pity you all there that you can put all your negitive energy and time not well spent to talk about hard wroking sellers and sellers trying to inprove a auction venue. If you would take that energy and anger and turn it into a productive matter and actually make a effort to list and sell something then you might see what I have already done. Actually, I think only TWO people so far have used the business advertising at TT.

I wonder what they think of the OTWA thread?
I wonder what they would have thought of the FAS threads, in real-time, had they actually been around for Rip-Off #1.

Quote:I wonder what they think of the OTWA thread? Do you need to ask? As soon as they read the posts where their fearless leader Ray said OTWA was worthless, they'll also think it is worthless. If Ray said a pile of shit was gold they would believe it. |

Some comments made on OTWA prior to the launch of WP1
Quote:Wow, that's like 1000 people per day since the 3rd? Quote:I think deep down that most of the hobby sellers don't expect to sell anything at WP. They aren't selling on eBay anymore, and really have nothing to lose. Quote:Sort of a small town USA swap meet on an early Saturday spring morning, huh? Where Ann's stuff goes to Mary's house, and Mary's stuff goes to Sue's house, and Sue's stuff goes to Bob's house ... until they do it all over again in autumn? Quote:For me, Ray's sales pitches always brought to mind those of Amway/Quixtar. Maybe Wagglepop will become the newest MLM on the block and Ray the new DeVos or VanAndel. Re: a WP seller Quote:What I don't understand, though, is why she seems to be taking her anger at eBay out on anyone who questions the Wagglepop way? Simple comments and innocent questions have earned scathing and sometimes nasty attacks by her. In fact several Wagglepop lurkers that I know have Pm'ed or emailed me to say that she, along with a couple of other frequent posters, scared them off and they will not have anything to do with Wagglepop as a result of this. And one of the best ones by TR Quote:There are 2 states of mind in which people are more likely to be conned. |
