Does GFY affect your posting style on other non adult forums?
 

Kinda spoilt here as far as being able to say what we want, are we not?

Example, the other day, I was on an HD TV Forum, and I got into a silly argument about something which was mostly semantics. I realized I had lost the argument, but of course, still kept going (Politely mind you) until I was in a corner and had nowhere to go...

So I just posted - 'Thats because you is a gay' and found myself banned for 2 weeks... :helpme

What mainstream type forums have you been banned from, despite trying to keep yourself in check?

No.

At no point does the urge overcome me to post, "I like poo", or "I can't afford (fill in the blank)" for my time on a forum, or 90% of my messages.

I comment on things that are entertaining, interesting, or I have some thoughts or opinions on. I read more than I post regardless of the forum. That includes both adult and mainstream. The only difference is that some have stricter rules in regards to images, profanity, or subject matter you have to take into consideration.

:2 cents:

i get bounced from mainstream forums all the time.. Not just for rude comments but usually if you argue someone against the wall and they are friends with a mod it isn't hard to get banned on those boards... They are far less diplomatic than they are around here that is for sure.

my gf got banned from a dog breeders forum once for just that.. hehe

you should have dropped a picture of ******* on your way out :) lol

I think it was tough for Trey to post on mainstream boards. I saw him on prosper.com 's board a few years back and he said "fuck" or "shit" and he got banned. lol. some places are more hyper sensitive than others.

Fair enough - Its the drink see. Thats not an excuse, just a fact. I mean right now I am lucid and 100% sober. But recently these periods have been less than usual and fewer and further between. When I actually stopped drinking completely (And had my nic changed) I stopped doing it completely... But I am slipping back to my old ways I suppose...

I am actually the same there. Believe it or not.

Yes of course. But to getted banned for 2 weeks for that comment ? Its laugahable :thumbsup

Once called someone a retarded cunt on dp for selling a 5 month old 4 word domain for 5k ...

There was no 'way out' Woke up next morning to a YOU ARE BANNED ! :1orglaugh

The smaller the board the worst it is. I don't put up with bullshit I don't care if it's business or personal. I was on this small weather forum run by 1 guy basically if you didn't like his opinion and disagreed with it, you were banned. Needless to say I lasted about 10 minutes.

Owning a forum or being a moderator of one is one of those power trips that most people can't handle. It makes the everyday Joe with a boring life feel like he is special and powerful. To many of these people get off on that, because their lives suck so they can go ban someone and it makes them feel like they all important and powerful now :upsidedow When it reality it just proves how pathetic their lives are.

I only post on forums that don't give a shit what I say you fuckstain!

I also post a lot on some 'Big Brother' forums, cause I follow the show, and I dont seem to have any problems there with profanity - Even when I am drunk :)

I always remember to asterix words and stuff, (like P*ss and Sh*t and stuff - When its appropriate to the point I am making) even in posts that I dont really remember making the next morning.

I guess that in the back of my mind, cause its a 'Family TV Show' I know that it could be a youngster who is reading it :)

If he managed to sell it for 5k I would have called him a good buisness man :2 cents:

But then you are talking DP so thats an oxymoron :thumbsup

I didn't think you were one to bitch about Big Bro housemates on forums for the show. :1orglaugh


So who's getting evicted this Friday, Heaven or Rebeckah ?? :winkwink:

Usually get problems for calling someone a cunt (when they are being a cunt) but that's my everyday language not caused by here.

I did post this somewhere last week where it wasn't appreciated but did achieve my objective of totally derailing a rather pointless argument going on in a thread :)

Im from Holland,we can say what ever we want.

Good thing you have your priorities straight.

Did you get a cookie for winning your internet duel with some complete stranger?

:2 cents:

Yep. A much nicer one than you're trying to get now you hypocritical twat - had chocolate chips in and hundreds and thousands on the top.

I have noticed that a lot of the smaller boards are totally paranoid about spam.

A guy asks how he can do x. You reply with the names of 3 programs that can do that... and BAM: instant warning.

well, their loss.

I started off arguing with idiot magicians on Usenet's alt.magic

I've always enjoyed making idiots (Gary) look stupid.

:D

I do have a life outside of GFY yah know... :winkwink::thumbsup

Probably Heaven. But I cant say for sure. I havnt given it much thought really, cause I'll be at xbiz in London that night, so I wont be watching it.... :winkwink:

I could always sneak back to the hotel though I suppose... :error:error:error:helpme:helpme

I say what I think on GFY and don't give two shits what people think.

I am the opposite on other boards, mainstream and adult.

:2 cents::2 cents::2 cents::thumbsup:thumbsup

Not at all. GFY doesn't affects anything. I post on plenty of boards, this one is just one of many. :pimp

No, but gfy does affect my gfy posting style, if that makes sense :)

Would you please be so kind as to give us a few links to the other boards, so I can post there as well?

Thanks mate :thumbsup

LMAO, this from the guy who posts random retarded pictures all the time here. Oh the irony....

I'm constantly backspacing over what I have typed before I press submit on other forums. Sometimes I forget where I am posting. Most other forums just wouldn't understand if I told someone to "eat my ass with a spoon, whistledick."

GFY has definitely influenced my posting on other forums. I was given "infraction points" on a domain forum for speaking my mind.

No. I find this forum actually to be a bit tame compared to some forums I've posted at. People here start crying at the drop of a hat from what I've seen.

I don't post to non adult forums :pimp

when i joined gfy i thort everyone was having a go at me know i know its just because you can say what you want on here

Definitely, I often post on car forums, and sometimes I'll have a little question that I can't Google so I'll make a thread asking if anyone can help, I usually get ridiculed, told to search, thread locked and told I shouldn't own a car by various forum warriors. Sometimes I get an answer. Pretty much the same happens here except you can get some actual answers fast.

I hear that. The only time you see fast answers here is from programs for the webmasters. Not very often do you see webmasters helping other webmasters. Same things happens here as your car forum you posted on with ridicule and jokes + boobs...

whats humphrey B Bear got to do with this?

Everything.

I'll help other webmasters and reply to their posts when i see it. But then you get the trolls on here who either ridicule you for replying or what you said in your reply. My fav is the ones who reply back with one liners like " what do you know" or " you are wrong" . Nothing like replying with a nice long paragraph or two of me explaining something to someone trying to help them, with a troll commenting " you wrong". idiots...

Marry me ...

Yep - I have noticed you and Lazycash gave some good feedback on the cam questions niche. Not many take the time to post anything useful in paragraphs or tips. Not much helping others going on here at ALL. Other webmasters would never tell you guys what is converting for them, just programs would say it but then it get's regarded as "spamming" anyway, much like "what do you know".

i'm Becky-Home-ecky in mainstream.....all vanilla and proper hahaha

I only post here on GFY so no I don't have that prob.
