I was trolled about my fathers passing and brought it up with the admin and the result was extremely disappointing. Rather not be part of a forum that allows that type of behaviour. Oh wow, I'm so sorry that happened. That's the kind of garbage Warren did, and why I was always an advocate of him being shown the door there, among other reasons. There's trolling and then there's just being a POS. May I ask which poster did that to you? I love it here. I consider it my home board. When I need a break from V1's nonsense I'll just post here, it doesn't matter if anyone even responds, it's cathartic. And Ant and GardenGirl are two of my very favorite people online, and they're here. Molly has been around, too, and she's great. I've always enjoyed your posts, so welcome. If you post I'll be sure to respond I post less about politics than other stuff here, generally, but maybe we can get some decent poli discussions going without all the *derp derp, Trump, derp derp Biden* stuff. You are one of my very favorite people online, too, Marilyn! I'm glad you are here, and I consider this my home board, too. And I am glad cybajedi has joined us here; slowly, I think this board will develop into the most genuine board, and serious posters will gravitate to it. I'm always comfortable here.

Monkey's forum is going down the drain. Does anyone actually post here? So it goes. We need more people posting here. I'm giving very serious though to deleting my account over there.

I don’t think anyone else picked up on it otherwise a few would have called him out on it I’m sure. I have a strong sense of right and wrong and it was wrong on multiple fronts. I’ll check in here and hope the place picks up a bit. Oh, Lux sucks, big time. That doesn't surprise me at all. I'm sorry he did that, and I'm sorry FM was indifferent to it.

Right now it's both Six and Mulder and Scully over there..

I've never interacted with him, he just always seems negative. This place is pretty quiet, but after all the drama on the other board, I can do without all the angst. Maybe tomorrow, I will start a thread here of general interest; I'll see what occurs to me in the interim.

What wasn’t expected was no consequences from the admin for that type of behaviour. The admin has mentioned several times that V1 is his “living room” and if he allows that type of behaviour In his living room I don’t want to be there. A temporary ban would have been appropriate IMO.

And there have been more than a few other things in threads that would have been appropriate for a boys' locker room. I'm no fan of JC, but I thought FM would be a bit more proper and responsive when looking at offensive content. Additionally, there is such an overabundance of just plain nonsense, parody threads, unintelligent back-and-forth ad hominem exchanges and such... it is difficult to find anything of value, wading through all of the other stuff. I sometimes just scroll through recent posts just to see if there is anything I care to engage with. It's gotten to be more of a supermarket tabloid rag than a proper newspaper or magazine. I actually posted my frustration on the open board once, and FM actually responded and said that if I posted a topic, to tag him and he would happily interact with me. I did that, and he never even responded. If we could get a few more of the better posters to come over here, this could become a genuine discussion board. Fingers crossed...

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that some of the more reasonable and moderate posters have either stopped posting or post less often than previously. JC did keep the board clean for the most part and reigned in the majority of the nonsense and poor behaviour, FM doesn’t appear to have the will or backbone to do the same so the board has devolved and will likely continue on that path.

I'm taking a break and only hanging out here. Is it still a cesspool over there? I went back to post on TCM's thread. And honestly, I missed Winters, I've always been close with him and he's a BFF on here. It's a little better without Warren and Xel. Right now there's more OT silliness which I don't mind. I'm sire the closer it gets to the election the more annoying it will get.

Blaming Warren, xel, etc will get old. They're all gone, and it's the same shit. Want the truth? You're all toxic Bart Dracula Winter Monkey Molly Jay left Cyber left now Akbar left Jaypat left Rissa is gone Cynicaldreamer is gone Airborne won't return You all ever look in a mirror and think, maybe, just maybe, this entire community is shit? You wonder why JC let you all go. This is why, it's easier to blame "blank" then realize the entire place is epic shit. I left them all, won't go back. Because the problem is the community....not "blank" poster Btw, shady Warren and xel are gone. Guess what, ackbar and cyber still deleted. Soon there will be no one left but the bitter pricks. Enjoy that.

You can't get bread pudding on a message board, only arguments about flan where everyone but you is wrong 😝

You can't get bread pudding on a message board, only arguments about flan where everyone but you is wrong 😝 It's why I left. Here's the thing, it isn't all that way. The internet doesn't "suck" just depends where you go. That's all of your guys issues. How did this thread begin? Monkey's forum is going down the drain. Does anyone actually post here? So it goes. So it's fine. Blame Warren. Blame xel. Blame me. Guess what, they're gone and it's still the same shit. Pretend the ones who got banned are the "toxic" ones. You can't, but you can't walk away. I'm only here as I heard what happened to cyber. Shocker of shocks, monkeys did nothing about it. He doesn't care, only if it's someone he doesn't like. He likes lux, so ain't shit gonna be done. Yet, you all blindly go there and follow. In the end, look at yourselves. Jc let you all go, why? Because he knew toxic. Why do you think I went after who I did? I know toxic. I adapt. Snap chat, discord, among other things. Forums are dying, I'm basically at Facebook and you're all clinging to MySpace It's easier to blame others then look at the entire community. I guarantee I could go 3 threads and find a lame ass, petty argument. You know it, I know it. Youll all find a new scapegoat soon, and I hope that works swell for you all. I'll be off in communities that actually have conversations and respect each other. Sorry for your dead parent passing being used against you, cyber. I doubt you'll listen, find other communities. They're out there if you're willing to find it. Change sucks and it is hard. I'm glad I dipped. ✌️

I sign in to V1 for the posters I like and no other reason. No one is scapegoating anyone. Warren sucks, he's sucked since the OG IMDb. Xeliou just encouraged the nonsense, although he's fine outside of that one subject. You're right it's a toxic place, it doesn't mean those two didn't make it worse. The internet will continue to internet. Take what good you can get from it, leave the rest.

You all say it isn't important, but delete, return, delete, return. I won't be back, I might pop in from time to time. Airborne like.... As I said I only came here cuz I heard what happened to a few people. Shocker, more are gone. The community gets smaller and smaller. You all always scapegoat someone. Tam, Sci, Warren, xel, myself, etc. Now it seems Jeff is the hot topic. Rinse and repeat. They ALL make it worse. ALL OF THEM How did this thread start again? The internet will, sure, if you continue to engage in toxic bullshit, you get what you deserve. I found different, better communities. There are so many out there. It's better to walk away from toxic. I can make a list of people who are toxic. Monkeys is one of them, when he isnt hitting on anything with a vagina...

Oh wow, I'm so sorry that happened. That's the kind of garbage Warren did, and why I was always an advocate of him being shown the door there, among other reasons. There's trolling and then there's just being a POS. May I ask which poster did that to you? I love it here. I consider it my home board. When I need a break from V1's nonsense I'll just post here, it doesn't matter if anyone even responds, it's cathartic. And Ant and GardenGirl are two of my very favorite people online, and they're here. Molly has been around, too, and she's great. I've always enjoyed your posts, so welcome. If you post I'll be sure to respond I post less about politics than other stuff here, generally, but maybe we can get some decent poli discussions going without all the *derp derp, Trump, derp derp Biden* stuff. The poster was Lux, malcontent nutter but that crossed a line IMO. The response from the admin was just as disappointing so easy choice in the end. I don’t think anyone else picked up on it otherwise a few would have called him out on it I’m sure. I have a strong sense of right and wrong and it was wrong on multiple fronts. I’ll check in here and hope the place picks up a bit. glad you are here and didn't disappear. I always enjoyed your posts.
