Re: 2004 BTB is ON!! (kill cancellation rumor)

Actually, my hope for this thread is to start some disussion how rumor-spreading may have helped, or hurt people. If you have an experience to share, please do so.

I was pleased to leave the rumor-driven world of high-school two years ago, and I've had hopes that that I never had to be thrown back into that world. Frankly though, being in the midst of a rumor is irritating me a lot. I do my best to act as responsible & professional as I can, and to be undermined by people who can't check the dates of the threads they read... feels like a stab in the back.

My main concern is: the people who may have heard this rumor (rumor being: 2004 Blitz is cancelled), may not approach me for it's validation... and may therefore miss out on the event.
