Welcome to WF. At midnight PST the site backs up. There's about 3 minutes when it seems like you can't post and then all of a sudden a multi-post.
At this point I would have to say you are right. Even Dayton did not fall for it and start going on. Oh well, such is life.
There were a few people who just wouldn't accept criticism of the show. It's not the Second Coming of Christ but it's not complete shit, but trying to reason with them was impossible.
This is one of the literally dozens and dozens of PMs I got from Jim aka @TheLonelySquire with the title "White Trash": Pretty much all of them are whiny like this. And they were constant.
You know what, you're right. That is whiny. Totally accurate, but whiny nonetheless. Kudos on making your point.
I never noticed any bias on the part of TBBS mods. Was I hanging around in the wrong forums? I got told off by a mod in TNZ for implying the admin might have overreacted to my sins of dual-ery, but I don't blame the guy. He's loyal to his boss.
Just got a 24-hour ban for calling a twat a twat in the DSC forum. Apparently, I have form, according to a mod I suspect is having to chew his own fingers off to avoid agreeing with me on the twat in question. No biggie, but why do they bother saying "comments to PM" when the ban locks me out of doing ANYTHING? I had to wipe my browser history so I could enter as a lurker and see the damn post that got me banned!
Yup. I still don't know why I was banned. I just try to visit the site one day and bam, "You have been banned".
I enjoyed the TOS forum as well as TNZ. Who has the most career posts now? There were some people posting like 50x per day.
Are there any other forums that are purely for Star Trek? TNZ was just insufferable to me; filled with the kind of people who think Hillary Clinton was an honest candidate.
First ten or so down the list before you even hit TNZ? General Trek Discussion TOS forum TNG forum DS9 forum VOY forum DSC forum (new with added Tilly!) Trek Lit Trek Art Trek Gaming Trek Tech Trek Have you not eyes to see, muthafucka?
It was pretty amusing how willfully so many in that forum ignored all of Hillary's warts and faults, despite constantly deriding other people who do the same things.
Made somewhat easier by the platform she chose to represent. Even if she WERE a female Trump, as your little Halloween schtick at TNZ likes to make out, I'd rather have her reined in by the DNC party platform than the GOP one - which ain't so much reining Trump in as unbolting the stable door and sticking ginger up his rectum.
I wasn't around TNZ for the 2016 election but sweet mother of fuck, how anyone could think Trump was a better choice than Clinton is beyond me. Politics aside, what the hell were people expecting from a Trump presidency?
