What other forums are you a member of? - Page 2

smashing · 07-15-2005, 04:10 PM

Used to frequent a lot of forum, now only two:
(1) Adventure Gamers
(2) ClubSNAP

Spend a lot of time with some of the groups over at Myspace.

***tabacco*** · 07-15-2005, 07:33 PM

Hmm... mostly just Thumbs. There's also http://www.hasbeens.net, which is a site for former Disneyland CMs. It's private, though

***fov*** · 07-15-2005, 07:35 PM

Except for GameBoomers, the other forums I post at are not game-related. Dollhouse stuff, mostly.

Yeah, yeah, I'm a girl.

UPtimist · 07-16-2005, 12:30 AM

MtG City - I have the most posts there!

(well, except for that one ex-mod who started spamming and finally banned himself...)

MtG Salvation - I don't post much, but am registered...

AGS - I post every now and then...

I don't think there's anything else (I am a member in other places too, but don't actually post there...)

And yes, Magic: the Gathering is great. Very great.

Starflux · 07-16-2005, 12:44 AM

Idle Thumbs,
The Ravensnest (a dwindling Dutch art community),
Clickburg (Dutch webcomic community),
Aniway (Dutch anime magazine).

Kolzig · 07-16-2005, 01:59 AM

Thumbs, Juniper Games, Telltale, TRW, pelit.fi

Thumbs and TRW every day, all the rest maybe once or twice every two weeks or so.

Shodan · 07-16-2005, 02:26 AM

The TTLG forum

Argh! Am I the only one who wastes her time on forums dedicated to a game written in Perl?

Black House Forums (former TLJ: Next Step Forums) - The forums of RaMa's Black House (Clan! Mwuahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!) website, for Dreamfall.

The same and the TeamXbox Forums, the Gaming-Age Forums, the SA Forums, the TTLG Forum and some others I don't remember at the moment.

Yes, because perl is evil

(I've spent the last week working on some tv station automation software written in perl, and it's driving me INSANE!)

The only forum I regularly post at is Adventure Gamers, I lurk a lot at idlethumbs, just adventure and the bioware forums, and occasionally post

Before I discovered AG my home was Just Adventure and I regularly posted there and had many great discussions. After a while these forums lost interest, as there seemed to be a great deal of backbiting and insults - the forums very soon lacked any interest for me, and a few others

I occasionally return there and reply to the odd post but the atmosphere I remember from a few years ago has gone

Used to belong to Lucasforums, but was hounded out for being so young (I was ten when I joined, which explains the ignorant posts).

Ninth · 07-17-2005, 02:12 PM

I'm a member at JA+, but I've only posted a few times, in the political forum.

*natalia* · 07-17-2005, 06:07 PM

This is the only gaming forum that I've ever joined or posted in. I also belong to, but only lurk now (it became too much of a timesuck for me) in, Salon.com's Table Talk forums.

Intrepid Homoludens · 07-17-2005, 06:20 PM

I'd love to frequent Salon.com more often, but don't they want money from you first?

*natalia* · 07-17-2005, 06:31 PM

Hi Intrepid, I subscribe to Salon.com (I forget for how much). The Table Talk forum used to be a separate subscription, but now if you're a Salon member you also get Table Talk membership. I think you can still read Salon for free, but you have to watch an advertisement first before being able to click through to the full article. I'm not sure though, since I haven't had to do that in a while.

Trunkyo · 07-18-2005, 06:24 AM

Well, I don't have tons of time anymore to post at any forum, but the ones I visit the most frequently include:

MystCommunity (where I'm known as Torahn'kyo, yep I was infected by the D'ni naming bug too!) - This is one of the bigger Myst fan forums. It used to be much more fun and lively a few years ago but seems less active as of late, despite being summer vacation for many of its members.

Also IMHO, the "squeaky-clean" image they try (a little too hard) to maintain can get annoying... the mods will even edit milder words such as "damn", "hell" and "sucks"!

Survivorsucks (the Amazing Race sub-forum, anyway... I rarely post there, but am entertained and disgusted at the same time!

) - The idiots who post there have got to be the most merciless knee-jerk posters, trolls, flamers and spammers ever!!! Looks out for Tempsie's name...

Teahouse of the Maple Moon, a forum for devotees of the annual Anime North convention

Mr. Bill's Adventureland

JA+ (Yep, the "site across town."

I post there even less regularly than here! There's this really annoying twit who shall remain nameless who posts there and at GB with useless technical advice and deserves many

for always spoiling puzzle solutions when members are only asking for hints! Sheesh!

Hmm, just curious, how many members here have defected or were banned from JA anyway? I know of a few, but are there others?

Lucien21 · 07-18-2005, 07:33 AM

I'm a mod over at Mystery Manor.

Spam alot at JA+ (though not that much recently

)
Joined Quandary when it opened and still post there.
Here because it's the only one I can access from work.

Also

www.futurenoir.com a Sci-fi forum

Registered at a few others but rarely post.
