Other Forums?
 
What other forums do you visit, if any?

There are a few for me, but this is the one I spend the most time at. The others are:

afterthepostrock.org - music forum
sputnikmusic - music, again
reddit.com - most people probably know of this.
4chan's /mu/ - music, obviously

I used to post on a couple of heavy metal forums until I realized everyone there was completely retarded.

There have been a few other forums I have visited/posted on in the past, but these are the main ones.

So, where else do you post other than here?

We're lonely.

Also a couple of others deep in my past, but thoroughly embarassing so I won't go into that.

enchilado 04-10-2011 01:41 PM

The only other forum I regularly go on is one for a silly little open-source MMORPG, and that's only to talk about the development of it.

EDIT: MM posted. I did go on anythinggoesforums.com for a while, and I just remembered about the first forum I ever joined: wallaceandgromit.com. I used to go on there all the time.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 01:44 PM

White Flower Lodge - Private forum I go on with some friends
Animesuki - Anime forum
Allspark - Transformers forum. It is really really bad.
Glasgow Philosophers forum - What it says on the tin
Kureha One - A pirating forum
I also lurk /a/, /vp/ and /jp, but very very rarely post. I would lurk /v/ but it's even worse than /a/, and that's saying something.

I used to be a member of the Final Fantasy forum that was owned by Cloverfield (Or whatever on earth she calls herself now), Gamefaqs, some random metal forum and IGN.

Oh and I'm also a member of MA and MM's forum, but I stopped going because of real life issues and I'm way too guilty and ashamed to go back. Really.

I was going to join creepypasta.net's forums, but I read that they're selling their website or something, and I don't want to join just to delete my account.

I attempted to be a member of the SCP foundation, but the info they require (such as passcodes) I can't find unless I'm a member. Really shitty of them.

Syrian Communist Party?

EDIT: Oh wow I just looked them up. My respect for you has dropped to a new low.

MeechMunchie 04-10-2011 01:58 PM

I'm working on a few little things for AGF, so I'll give it a big relaunch at some point. You can all come back then.

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:00 PM

@WoF I have no idea why, but okay.
I liked that site just because of all the imaginary creatures. I wanted to post some suggestions for 096.
I also considered encyclopedia dramatica, but I don't like all the popups and viruses.

Off topic, WoF, is that stuffed animal in your icon a testicle?

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 02:04 PM

Yes. I own one.

Really? I have two.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 02:08 PM

I have an electronic receipt for mine.

enchilado 04-10-2011 02:10 PM

I came with mine.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 02:11 PM

But no electronic receipt.

QED My testicle > yours.

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:12 PM

And now we're talking about balls. How fun.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 02:13 PM

You can have a lot of fun with balls.

Rubbing them and playing with them, and even tasting them a little.

T-nex 04-10-2011 02:16 PM

I use DA's complaint forum from time to time. It's fun to listen to people's rants sometimes.

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:18 PM

it's even better if you pluck your twanger while you're bouncing your balls.

On topic: I've lurked around 4chan and places like that, and I can't figure out why they're so popular.

Mr. Bungle 04-10-2011 02:20 PM

As far as 4chan goes, I only visit /mu/. I'll occasionally lurk on /b/, but it just gets so fucking retarded.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 02:24 PM

I quit /b/ back in 2008 and never looked back or gone on ED since.

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:26 PM

I almost quit this one, but then I started lurking again and i was like "....fine."
I'm glad i didn't quit. I like being here.

Ridg3 04-10-2011 02:33 PM

God, forums eh. Well I did go on a few band dedicated forums but everyone there is a fucking retard (as stated.) God forbid you criticize a band legitimately and not get whiny replies saying that you're a douchebag.

Other ones are local gaming/convention forums from where I'm from. Way to nerdy, like, the kind that goes in depth and detail into why the Hulk can beat Thor whilst painting a giant fucking text scenario that they would encounter.

And what is that SCP thing that GT is on about, I got Society of Catholic Priests but I don't think that that's it.

Have fun!

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:37 PM

I only like it because of 096. I just wanted to post some things for them to expiriment with, like, would he freak out if an animal saw him?

I rarely visit the site anymore. It's gotten boring. And repetitive.

I have a fanfiction account, but I never use it. I've forgotten the password too.

Ridg3 04-10-2011 02:44 PM

My question is (after unfortunately reading through the forum and a few of the SCP's; ) Are they actually taking themselves seriously or are they creating hypothetical scenarios/creations just to amuse themselves with.

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:46 PM

Nah, they're just making up shit.
As for taking themselves seriously part, it sounds pretty serious, but I'm pretty sure it's for others amusement.

I got a youtube channel, but who doesn't these days.

enchilado 04-10-2011 02:49 PM

I don't.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 02:51 PM

I do.

Some guy posted on mine, asking me to pray for his sick dog.

I didn't.

Emesdee 04-10-2011 02:51 PM

Transformers Collectors Club: Just lurk. Only really go there because you get access when you join for newsletters and the annual free figure.

Toho Kingdom: After they had a board wipe, I never rejoined, but I still lurk.

/a/: I don't know why people claim this is the only good anime place on the net. Doubles, doubles everywhere. Yet I still keep going because I've been there for over seven years, might as well go down with the ship.

Most forums I've been banned or just left when they started getting boring. Hard to find places that have a good mix of not being too large, but also having a decent amount of activity that checking in daily doesn't feel like too often.

Gwan-Thwei 04-10-2011 02:52 PM

I also had a FurAffinity account to troll all the sickfucks, but again, i forgot the password.
oh well, the trolling was fun while it lasted.

Also the moderator is an exceedingly dumb faggot who can't seem to decide if he likes general threads or not.

I liked how things were before, instead of having a constant thread full of hundreds of posts going on 24/7 when there's nothing really to talk about chapter or episode wise. It seemed everything that /a/ was originally about is frowned upon. What's the point of an imageboard where image dumping is unacceptable?

Disgruntled Intern 04-10-2011 04:20 PM

My Posting Career is the only other forum I actually visit these days. It's nice.

abe619 04-10-2011 04:27 PM

Well, used to go here and i still go occasionally: http://mknexusonline.com/

Mother fucker. I used to go there, I almost never posted in the times I used to visit, so I just quit. A lot of the people I liked there left or weren't as fun anymore, also gvamp is a douchebag.

NeoGaf- The best gaming forum on the net, and their off topic is also really good.

4chan- /soc/, /b/, and /x/ mainly, I go to /v/ to occasionally troll. /r9k/ was the best board ever, fuck moot for deleting it.

Wings of Fire 04-10-2011 05:18 PM

/r9k/ is for hipsters and /soc/ is for girls to camwhore.

Fuck your tastes in 4chan boards.

Oh yeah, I remember the early days on other forums he wasn't that bad, but his ego just went up and up as the years went by.

Dynamithix 04-10-2011 08:17 PM

I only have an account here and in Call of Duty zombies -forum, and I don't go there anymore since I have no interest to play Nazi Zombies anymore.

Strike Witch 04-10-2011 09:11 PM

I post of 4chan's /a/, /m/, /jp/, /co/ an /toy/ boards.

I used to like /co/ up until the Pony thing got out of hand. If moot gave a damn, he'd probably have changed it to "/co/- Pony and Homestuck General" for a while there. I stopped going to /toy/ when I got sick of trying to explain things all the time in TF threads just to have people accuse me of being David Willis.

enchilado 04-10-2011 10:51 PM

I've only ever visited 4chan once.
