Doubt it.

It's more like the coffee shop where all the cult members meet.

Yes, it's kind of cult like, but it's not a bad one because we still have religious freedom despite being a little obsessive and nutty. Actually, it's more like a harmless commune.

(I don't really think it's a cult, I just thought it was funny to compare the forum to the warning signs, lol)





Warning signs that someone may be in a cult

The following behavior changes do not necessarily imply there is a cult problem, but if someone you know has become deeply involved with a new group or organization and exhibits many of these changes it may indicate a cultish involvement.
  • Thinking in black and white terms
  • Using a new language/cultic jargon
  • Saying goodbye to all old friends and only seeing people affiliated with, or not critical of the cult
  • Creating distance from family, especially during holidays and family events
  • Euphoric, yet simultaneously tired and worn
  • Humorless
  • A change in diet and sleep patterns
  • Low on money
  • Poor grades
  • A dismissal of their life prior to involvement with the group as "all bad"
  • A change in goals, priorities, and life plan
  • Return to child-like behavior
  • Dogmatic adherence to new beliefs/ideas, with the inability, or lack of interest to logically assess these new beliefs
  • Secrecy
