    Ban for ban

    That site had a strange cast of characters. They were all rejects that were all banned off of some massive forum. There was some initial forum they all joined, but most of them hated each other, so it created a destructive cycle. One of them would create a forum, end up banning so many people...

    Ban for ban

    I stopped getting banned around the time I started my forum. There was something similar that happened, but not me trying to retaliate in that fashion. There was a forum admin that was… a character. The guy was crazy and very immature. He was also pretty notorious for going on forums and...

    Smart-everything?

    You yourself probably couldn’t do it, but they have people who know how to conduct digital forensics for stuff like this.

    Clean your Keyboard

    I probably should but don't.

    Justin Bieber diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome

    I think politics and slactivism ruined it for a lot of people. Though I don’t think that reason is why younger people don’t use it. I think a lot of it is more superficial, as I’ve seen a lot of younger folks saying that sites like Facebook are basically not hip and cool when your mom is on it.

    Bad Moderators

    Based on some of her comments, I think she thought she owned it, and then realized she didn’t. Though I think if someone’s gonna get all testy over something petty like this, I don’t foresee a good relationship in the future. Especially if it’s over a serious topic. Though I’ll admit that I was...

    Bad Moderators

    It's even more obnoxious when it's over a simple question. They mentioned they owned a SNES game that never left Japan. I was like "that game never left Japan, do you collect imports, or is it a fan translated reproduction?". "I don't collect imports or reproductions, it's authentic". After I...

    Chromecast

    I’ve never used a Roku before, so I couldn’t tell you with full confidence, but the Chromecast for my TV can be spotty. Sometimes it works seamlessly, other times I have to close and restart the app on my phone more than once to get it to work. I have an Apple TV in the living room, and a...

    ForumPromotion.net

    I had a mostly identical experience with the review section. Though when I joined FP like 10 years ago, the reviews were more condescending. It also didn’t help that a lot of the reviewers at the time were also the people who were notorious for opening and shutting down multiple forums within a...

    Complaining about staff members

    I literally just did it today on a forum I joined a week ago. I mentioned part of the experience here: Bad Moderators I PM’d the admin about it, but while I was waiting on my reply from the admin, the other moderator responded back and was basically condoning the actions of the one I had...

    Scared of new forums?

    That’s the crappy thing about free stuff sometimes. Though it’s good to see you got what you wanted.

    Worst movie you ever had to sit through

    I saw quite a few through Mystery Science Theater 3000. Though you were also mostly there for the commentary and not the actual movie.

    Unexpected albums

    It doesn’t really bother me much. I get annoyed when some artists release half the album before it drops, so it kills part of the experience for me. I liken it to the equivalence of how some movies release so many trailers that you basically saw half the movie.

    Chromecast

    I have it built into my TV, but it’s a feature where you can screen share content off of your computer, phone, or tablet onto your TV screen. So you can load YouTube or Netflix on your phone, press the icon, and it’s shown on your TV. There are stand alone devices you can buy to enable the...

    When making promises

    I usually try to keep them. I tend to make promises on things I’m pretty confident I can make. The ones I’ve broken were mostly due to external factors (like getting called into work on a day off), or I was an idiot and straight up forgot about it.

    Boycotting countries

    Some of it can be very difficult, because of all the research that goes into it. Do you boycott the brand/company, or do you boycott the individual products? It’s not unusual for for companies to have products made in different countries, or have parts of the product manufactured in different...

    Electric Cars

    Part of that can be alleviated by having more charging stations like we do with gas stations. Right now the issue is the lack of stations, which isn’t a problem for people who have something like a garage, but is terribly inconvenient for those who don’t.
