I came here from Fark.. I was a pretty heavy user of #fark for awhile, and knew all of the people who hosted the Fark parties.. BUT, every single post there becomes a flame/troll war. Tfproject is a much better community with much more purpose and energy

Fark was my first real internet forum experience. I owe them gratitude for helping me get my feet wet. I still lurk there occasionally, but there's not much to comment on anymore, sadly.

Came from Fark too but got bored after quality of news was dropping and too many people were becoming asshats...

I didn't get here through Fark, but I am definitely a Farker. I go about 5 times a day (sometimes more) and check out the links and stuff.
One thing that has made me stop going as much: the photoshop competitions have turned into an immature talentless retard fest now. It used to be "he who has the skills wins the show" but now it's "he who uses the boring cliches made with Paint wins the show." A while back, a Farker did a photoshop that had like 900 or so votes ( a lot for a Fark photoshop competition). The theme was "Photoshop what happens to you when you graduate college." The Farker made a picture of a college graduate falling through the stages of life (literally, the image was like 18 inches long, you had to scroll to see all of it). Well, he won that competition by far. Now, all people do is make a semi-funny (sometimes horribly NOT funny) image really, really long (like 14-15 inches) just to cash in on that guy's success, and everyone votes for it. Just because it's a long picture. The whole process is cheesy as hell; it's blatantly obvious they are cashing in on old Photoshop methods that will always win.

i'm not perfectly certain how i came upon TFP, but there is a decent chance it was from Fark. I still lurk on Fark occassionally, but i go there for reasons commpletely different than those i come to TFP for. their boards are entertaining, but you just can't escape from the flame wars and constant joking. TFP seems to have a good mix of that and more pithy discussions.

As others have said, I came here from when Fark had the TB listed as top boobies. However, now when I go there, I read the links, but don't post comments.
Fark comments went downhill about the time totalfark came around. I'm still proud of my relatively low fark# though.

Last time I looked at the site it appeared to be a pathetic shell of its former self and not worth my $25 for totalfark anymore (which was dropped for me anyways at least 12-18 months back)

I just started Farking, sad about hearing how it used to be better.
Found out about Fark from a friend, just happened to see a post of this place from Fark ... I still love the Photoshops, too lazy to spend time and read through comments and reply back.

I didn't come here from Fark, but I go there to look at the news stories and boobies/weeners links. I got banned a while ago, so I don't post there anymore. I don't even know why I was banned, I am not a person who makes inflammatory statements or anything. It was really kind of weird. But I like this place better, so fark Fark.
