Default Is there a problem with cliques on the forum?

I understand how friendship groups form on sites likes this, it's understandable. I actually think I get on with most people on here, in general terms, when having discussions. However when it comes to forum games, I have definitely noticed that there's a group, or groups of people who stick together and if one doesn't like you the whole pack doesn't like you. I am discussing this because there was recently a thread on why it is difficult finding new players for games, and this is definitely a contributing factor when the same group of friends playing games together always make it to the end.

That's why there's no voting in my games coming up this year (apart from when it comes to the winner) because why be motivated to put your time and effort into playing a fun game for you to then be ostracised and thrown out because you're not in a group?

Basically this group will call you a troll and campaign for you to be banned if you go against their opinion

Hmm interesting. That's really sad if it's true. I don't want to name names because I don't want an argument and then for this thread to be closed but I think the issue needs addressing. There are rules in games where you can't discuss who you are going to vote for, which is fine in real life for a group of people who don't know each other, but it doesn't really work on a forum because it makes the players who aren't in the group feel left out.

Talking about games there is at least one person who fixes the results of the games he hosts

Yes I'm conversations I understand. But in games context, if there are 12 players and 1 is a newbie, that newbie stands no chance because a group of friends aren't going to stab each other's in the back. There's an unspoken alliance in everything.

It also kind of annoys me when people in a clique go "there's no group your crazy" but then the whole group make it to the end and you're the first one to go

But I guess people who do this are usually teenagers so I can kind of understand their childish attitudes around cliques.

Like if TiBB Big Brother was my first experience of playing a game, know that that first impression would make me never play a game again.
