    When I can't sleep at night I wonder if I should slink back to the TrekBBS. I'd play nice, stay under the radar, etc. Maybe even buy a premium membership.

    I know some of you have it out for that board. I know some of you don't. Any advice?

    Yes.
    Go to the TrekCore forums or the TrekMovie forums.

    Mostly I feel like you're here to advertise TBBS.

    Yeah. I see where you're coming from. But I'm a new member of a very old, small board here. The one common denominator I have with a lot of you is TBBS. So.

    Agreed. Seriously, it ain't all that. If you want to talk Trek you can do it with any of the hundreds of Trek groups that are on Facebook. There's nothing on that board which can't be discussed somewhere else.

    It’s a message board, get over it. Being bitter over internet drama is a sad way to go through life.

    Megatron isn't bitter. He thrives on drama!

    Talking on Facebook means going on Facebook, which causes issues for me. There's probably plenty of sites, sure.

    I dunno what drove you here to begin with, but if you were one on the toolshed posters like Anduril or Pubert, slinking under a new account isnt going to win you any favors.

    If you wanna post there, post. If you don't, then don't. Most of us have grown tired of TBBS bashing, do feel free to connect with us in other ways. :)

    Dude, follow their rules or don't post there. I joke about being prebanned because I have heard the rumors about how they are strict and have lots of drama and I can be offensive. So I know I would get banned there. I don't even try because the rules are not to my liking. If you cannot deal with the rules then don't. Don't whine about it other places. Either conform or go elsewhere. It is not like that is the only message board out there. Get over the drama.

    I came here mostly because I remembered the original exodus and wondered if WF was still around. It is, so here I am. I wasn't a notable member over there though, no.

    And you're right, nobody cares either way. That's all right.

    I'll assume that's a hard-hitting insult.

    YET... Negroes are still bitter about slavery that ended over a hundred years ago.
    They should get over it first.

    My problem was finding a board as active as TrekBBS.

    So you have had issues with both TrekBBS and Facebook. Ever wonder if the problem is you?

    Of course I'm the problem. Honestly, though, it wasn't as if I was banned from TBBS or anything, I just felt peeved at the administration. And as for Facebook, it's not a question of being 'trouble'. I'm trying not to get @Tererun on my case for pitying myself.

    You just get a pop-up telling you to turn it off.
