What other forums do you visit?

Postby Zarxrax » Thu Jan 07, 2010 12:31 am

You can tell a lot about a person by what forums they visit.
So, let's do it. What forums besides this one do you visit? Blog-style sites don't count, only actual forums.
Also list your level of activity for each one:
Active: You post a few times a week
Semi-Active: you post a few times a month
Lurker: You rarely post, but you read a lot
Also, no naughty or illegal forums :nono:

I'll go first (like I have a choice):
Speedsolving.org - Active
Amvhell.com - Active
Doom9.org - Semi-Active
Doom10.org - Semi-Active
Reviewing the Kanji - Semi-Active
Steam Forums, Team Fortress 2 - Semi-Active
Steam Forums, Left 4 Dead 2 - Semi-Active
GBAtemp.net - Lurker

animemusicvideos.it - Active
Doom9.org - Lurker
Doom10.org - Lurker

For the rest I check out blogs and sites and have a fair bunch of chans in ajoin on IRC so... that's pretty much it as far as forums are concerned, really.

Uhm, I am not active at all on any forums as much as here, and the only one that comes close is sailorbob.com which is for surface officers and officer candidates of the US Navy ONLY. It cannot even be browsed by non-members. Impersonators are found quickly and banned. I am also on airwarriors.com, but only really for help on certain tests I have taken. I am only social on sailorbob.

KoreaBridge.com for the religious forum. JapanForum.com and GaijinPot.com for Japan related questions, but I definitely do not post there socially. And that's really it.

The whole active/semi-active/lurker thing doesn't really fit my habits. I would only be active and semi-active on the org and sailorbob respectively. I do not read the other forums, so I am not a lurker. Maybe a new category? Asker? On the Japan forums, I ask a question when I need an answer but otherwise do not even lurk.

this is the only one now that I'm presently active on. I've just had to curtail my activity on forums elsewhere. A large part of it is the fact that in the past year or two, I've got a lot closer to a whole bunch of you AMVers and to keep up friendships with you jerks and take care of duties as mod on the .org, I had to give up almost all my activity (even mod/admin-ship) elsewhere. Fuck you guys for making me dump other communities for you D:

Still a very persistent lurker in the simulation community generally though

subsim.com - former staff member, recently left due to lack of time/energy
wolvesatwar.org - former staff member, recently left due to lack of time/energy
gamesquad.com (Distant Guns/Jutland sections) - formerly active, currently lurker
simhq.com - lurker
battlefront.com - occasional lurker

May return to some form of activity on these eventually

I <3 thespeedgamers.com's forums. Their moderation is awesome and don't take crap or negativity.

TTLG.com/forums - the boards for an old community dedicated to Looking Glass Studios, the game developer best known for Thief and System Shock. I lurk there sometimes.

It's funny, because LGS itself went defunct almost a decade ago. The TTLG boards don't even allow sigs or avatars. But the forums still thrive, and there's a great sense of community.
