Yeah, totally SMFH. I'm not too bent out of shape about it though. But for a day during my ban, I totally thought I was going to come back and delete all 2400 of my posts there and close my account. But that's cool because I've got some catching up to do here if I'm ever going to be a famous milf! I think I've gotten used to the interface of this forum enough that I am finally enjoying surfing it!

[popvulture]

Haha welcome, man. It seems the mesh of GAS is getting more and more interwoven!

[Chankgeez]

Yeah, the forum software here is certainly older.

[calfzilla]

I deleted a ton of posts on TGP out of one thread and some got really bent out of shape about it. Caused a few vacations. Fun stuff.

I’ve been banned from TGP twice now, by the same mod. Gotten it overruled twice. Live in the grey matter.

Their politics rule would be better if typing 'virtue signaling' was an insta-ban.

I'm guessin' it's probably this one (although I haven't looked at it since yesterday):

I read about half of that and I'm not sure why. I feel like my mom watching real housewives on TV

When you desperately want to be a cop but you're too lazy to go to the Donut Academy.

Yep. My guess is without the heavy no-politics moderation that TGP could quickly turn into a Stormfront auxiliary, but also with discussion about guitar gear.

Does anyone remember the mayhem of the Guitar World forums? I think when that one closed all those trolls migrated to HC and then turned that into a lunatic asylum.

i don't like to toss the word "fascist" around lightly, but TGP definitely has some borderline cases. and the sexism is just astounding. have these people learned nothing from the 60s-00s?

Lol I would totally take that class if I was retired and had nothing to do

[jirodreamsofdank]

A few months ago I was searching for information on something and wound up finding another gear forum that was TGP refugees who were mad that it was too liberal and the mods hated America and cops

[sears]

If someone on TGP asserts that rap music isn't music, and someone else points out that it is, guess which one gets flagged for being political?

[lost in music]

I only read or post on TGP every once in a while. I just had a thread locked for the first time over there over the weekend. In retaliation, I reported the post of the mod who closed it. Can't imagine that will go over well.
