Title: Do you belong to other message boards?
Post by: StL FinFan on March 06, 2009, 10:24:17 am
I belong to three others.  Two are music based and one is college sports based.  I was wondering what other interests everyone else had.

I belong to three others as well.  Two are Dolphins based, and I am a mod on a Florida State Seminoles based site.

I'm on several. Phinatics, Flickr, a photography forum, a lighthouse forum, and a Star Trek forum that kind of turned into a general community forum. Kind of like the off topic section here, except the political debates are more evenly balanced.

LOL this is nothing compared to the trash on some of the other boards I have seen. For the most part we try to remain civil.  :)

I used to participate in a few other boards, where I still go occasionally.   ..video games, mostly.

But I find that when boards get too large, I get disinterested.



By the way, I've heard that we're more liberal than most boards from a few of our more conservative members.  I don't think that's by design, but it's kind of interesting.

When I started this site, I was a liberal, Fausto was a conservative ...more libertarian leaning, and Brian had no political affiliations that I knew of.

I chose my moderators later on, based on those who contributed and added something to the site.  I didn't know any of their political leanings at the time.

I think it's the kind of site we are.  I think that a more satirical view of the team finds liberal thinking viewership more often, is my guess.

I have like 100 posts in the video games site I frequent. . . and I've been visiting that site for the better part of eight years now.  THAT site by the way is the most liberal forum.  Whenever a conservative sprouts out about 10 extremely sarcastic and damn near ruthless liberals jump in to fight.  Kind of annoying actually but it can be entertaining at times.  I like that site but it's way too busy.  You'll respond to a post and if like most people you wait a few hours or even until the following day, you'll pretty much have to sift through about five to six pages to stay in the conversation.

I used to visit 2 different car-club boards but the drama there got WAY out of control.

I visit a photography forum every now and then and I help moderate on SportsChick's Disney message board.  I visit other fan sites like Phinatics, etc, at times, but I am mostly a lurker there.  I did contribute to a Nissan forum for a minute but once I figured out that they were all 20-year-old kids talking about NOS and 47 "which rims should I get" threads, I haven't been back in a while.

Through it all, TDMMC is the rock.

Technically yes....
*a couple of Radio controlled Airplane,and helicopters boards (I don't even know if they exist anymore) From when I used to enjoy that hobby....

*A couple of photoshop message boards - One seems like it got really young,and the other one while still there is damn near bandoned....I tend to find there are 100s of Photoshop,Vector,and 3D modeling message boards..
        *They tend to be a bit of touch/edgy groups.
        * they also tend to be a bunch of noobs,asking people how to do something,or for someone to make them something
        *There are 5-10 really good artist,but have the exact same style,so they do the same exact thing,OVER,and over...

So I've gotten out of the photoshop,3d modeling message boards...

I have to admit, I'm far too loyal,to visit other Dolphin message boards (I guess it's a personal hang up)
Another side note,I remember reading on a message board,that talked about with the explosions of social networking,and blogs,that Message boards are sort of fading away....(I hope not  :-\ )

I need my daily dose of edginess. It's like "theonion.com" x1000. Not a place for the easily offended.

I visit the Onion 2-3 times a week, but I've never seen a chat board there...

I don't think you set up the board to be a liberal slanted board. It just happened that way. The majority of you are from Miami, and its no secret there are lots of liberals there. I made that observation merely as an observation. I thought it was interesting the contrast of this board vs the other board I frequent.

LOL.  They banned you!!!!   Wow.  I remember we started invading that board shortly after the Pats-Giants Super Bowl.  There was a whole thread dedicated to that, but it got lost in the site crash.

I guess I'm more net-active than I thought. I am a member of over a dozen message boards, and am regularly active on 11 of them:

2 Music boards
5 Car/Motorsports boards
2 Video Game boards
2 Home theatre/media boards
