So.. what's up? - Page 2 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

jimk · 08-21-2003, 04:23 AM

the only reason i came to the forums was to find out why the hell the porn was taken out. now i check in many times a day & usually find something interesting/entertaining/helpful.

great site.

onetime2 · 08-21-2003, 04:31 AM

I'm doing okay. Going to Mexico next week so life can't be too bad. Work sucks but thankfully I have internet access and can come here. Although last Friday our ISP went down due to the black out and I bagged the day at work at 11am. I can't possibly be expected to sit here with no work and NOT get on the net!!!!

johnnymysto · 08-21-2003, 04:31 AM

I'm diggin' it. Got my avatar, so I feel more member-ish. I've posted several new threads that have gotten good replies and discussion going, so that feels good. I'd say, on the whole, I'm liking TFP. More than when I was just lurking for porn.

I'm like you, Hal - I browse very often, but post a lot less than when I first started. I try to do more quality posts, and keep my comments off of boards where I know I don't have anything worthwhile to add.

Great forum.

rockogre · 08-21-2003, 05:23 AM

I'm still hanging around but I don't see as many posts as I used to. I pretty much avoid Tilted Politics, and since there are so many topics now I don't have time to scan them all.

This is still the best online community I have seen and the only site on the internet I support with donations on a regular basis.

jfm · 08-21-2003, 05:48 AM

New here. Went away for a while, work got REALLY busy and I made my first film - that cost me time and mucho £££. Only made about 35 posts and was eventually one of the axed. Used to be regular on the humour board, occaisionally on the cars board and daily on the TB, which I miss a bit.

Hope the rest of you, both posters and lurkers alike, are living the good life.

Minx · 08-21-2003, 05:52 AM

Well Halx I think you've discovered the vibe is a great one!
I enjoy and look forward to coming on everyday to see what's new, play a little in the nonsence threads, and express my views every once in a while! I, like a few of the others here, keep away from the politics thread, too volatile for this girl. I must say the journals is a fantastic idea...it's nice to have a place to put down thoughts that float around, to share little things that aren't important and some that are. All in all, an amazing site (due in part to not only the members themselves but the moderators that keep everyone in line). It's a place you know you won't get ripped on just because....it's a place to meet new people and get some exposure to new views, new ways of thinking. That is always a good thing.
Thanks Halx!

cchris · 08-21-2003, 06:17 AM

All is good for me here.
Heaps of variety and plenty of spice.

Averett · 08-21-2003, 06:33 AM

I'm new here, and just trying to get my footing.

Ive had a few messages already, so thats nice

I'm trying not to post too much, but it's hard cause I'm really really bored at work!

I think it's a great forum though, thanks

Darkblack · 08-21-2003, 07:25 AM

I'm great Hal, Hope things are good for you.
I love the site and enjoy my time here.
I am comfortable here. There are more people here with similar political views than other boards I used to visit. I still feel a bit alone here but I have not really tried to make friends yet. I am getting to know people by reading their posts and journals. Maybe in a few months I will start sending PM's and try to get to know some posters more on a personal level. As it is I still feel like a bit of an outsider but I think that will change with time.

God of Thunder · 08-21-2003, 07:58 AM

I'm doing just great!!

I like hanging out in the forums. I came here via some other boards and was very disenchanted by them. They tried to preach rules, but rarely enforced them. The asshats came in and dominated the boards and made it very difficult to post anything.

But enough about that, it's over, I no longer post there. Out with the bad vibes, in with the good.

Posting here is a much different vibe. "Play nice" I know it sounds good in theory, but will it actually work. I answer yes.

I feel a great vibe of respect in here. It's refreshing.

I think my tag line says it all.

Midnight_Son · 08-21-2003, 10:00 AM

it's cool man, the all around vibe is good. christ I actually dotated..(I'm a cheap bastard too) it's taken a long time for me to feel like part of the group but I do.

Hi Halx,

Yeah, liking it here - mostly.

Like most folk (at least the males) I originally came for The Erogenous Zone (free porn) and stayed for the conversation.

The one thing that does disturb me slightly is the "disappearing threads". If a thread or posts are found to be unacceptable then wouldn't it be better to lock them preventing further posts rather than erasing them? That way it's a little less Orwellian

.

Mike.

baaa · 08-21-2003, 11:47 AM

I was yelled at by redravin40 the other day for posting an abusive comment towards another member. I am now afraid of redravin40. Although I do see now how my comments were unnessisary. Please forgive the Baaa, he means no harm.

Troublebot · 08-21-2003, 01:04 PM

Good.

Feel comfortable, like I belong.

Got a cool "Bub" avatar.

Don't post as much as I'd like, but post when I can.

Thanks for asking Hal.

mml · 08-21-2003, 01:41 PM

It's been a long day, but I have a few minutes and I jumped on line to see what's up. As often occurs, I ended up here. I still don't know that I am completely comfortable with TFP, but it allows me to make some statements and get things off my chest. Even if no one out there reads my posts, agrees with them or even cares, I feel better for having "said" it. Thanks.

GH, you are one of the reasons I love to come back to this board. I can only aspire to your superior sense of humor.

I am doing well. Just a bit frustrated that I can't seem to buckle down and study for an Novell recertification test. Wishing I had all day to spend reading and responding to TFP threads and journals. I love this community.

marshall26 · 08-21-2003, 03:19 PM

this place has a good vibe, i've never felt afraid to say anything. the people here are (mostly) mature and can respect the views of others.

As in all things I see you in the same light as I see everyone.

Thanks for the weapons board it is right up my street
