But between the fanbois, self-proclaimed "experts on everything", anti-gun interlopers and just the occasional member meltdown it can get pretty bizarre at times.Ankerson wrote: ↑Sat May 16, 2020 10:52 pmDoc Dan wrote: ↑Sat May 16, 2020 10:47 pmHere, at least it is engaging. Most of the content at BF is bland or nonsense. There are some knowledgeable people there I interact with, but a lot changed with the overhaul.
As I said, I ignore trouble makers. I quit a couple of sub forums because the place was too antagonistic. I still post a little, but not like before. Mostly, I just take a glance and go. Engaging in a real discussion is not going to happen as a general rule and I posit that it is because of the idiots.
I don't do a lot there myself lately.
Waiting for things to get back to normal on the forum again.
I might look at a few sub forums like the Randall Forum so that's about it really.
I spend most of my time here. :spyder:
Was spending some time on a computer forum until a MOD overstepped and threatened me on the public forum. Stating facts back up by evidence in testing that went against what they wanted to believe as a fanboy... I did put him in his place and slammed him with tons of evidence and proven facts by professional testers... That didn't go over all too well though as facts don't matter to fanboys...
I called him out on it and was banned, then they reversed it... But the other MODS didn't like that so it wasn't long before I was banned forever. They all stick together you know...
I couldn't have any opinion on anything unless it followed theirs..... :rolleyes:
Was on that forum for over 12 years with no issues until that MOD overstepped.... New MOD with a big head.... Wasn't even on the forum that long either... A year or two maybe...
If you think BF is over MODED too much, that's nothing compared to the computer forum...
And I know what you mean about computer forums, before I gave up on them I saw folks banned for liking the wrong components...seriously.
BF isn't "over-modded" but they do allow some folks over there to run amok with apparently no consequences.
Oh I know, that's what basically happened to me on the computer forum.. LOL
I used to be in the computer industry..... :rolleyes:
Always used Intel platforms for my own systems and those I built for decades.
Mostly gaming computers...
