The forum is dead/dying and thebore is essentially a discord community now

There are three types of people here.

1. Givers. Folks who pour their heart and soul into the forum to create engaging and entertaining content. Also, folks who keep the like economy going with their generous clicking.

2. Takers. Low lifes with no friends in real life who used the rest is us to create a splinter discord where they can rule like little North Korean tyrants because their life is garbage and it's the only power they have.

3. Borks. People who fail to make the connection between closed registration and the lack of new posters.


I know what group I'm in.

To be fair, i started the discord and it was just so we can talk about e3 together, there was never any power grabbing or plays to 'steal' a community, it was just about 15 of us talking shit and when i needed an internet break the people who took over from me grew it into a wonderful community. No one is using it as a powertrip.

Isnt discord just IRC with a better frontend

Why is it so popular? People like chat rooms now?

Design matters.

gtfo with your bash terminal looking crap lol.

Yeah I stopped using that in the 2000's, when I stopped using chat groups to communicate

[bork]

If you look at the first page and most of the second page of this board, most of the topics were created in the last few days.  Is that dead or dying, especially with how small this community is?

This is also not the first thread that has been made about this- if you like the Discord channel, great, but not everyone wants to go there and some folks have been barred from doing so, too.  So not really sure what the point here is beyond some folks dropping back in to tell us they're leaving the forum for the umpteenth time or how much better the chat is.

The real question is, would people come back here or start posting more if certain posters went bye-bye?

Not that long ago I saw a poster make the argument that with such-and-such banned they and other old posters would surely post more. Then they got what they wanted and nothing changed so who knows.

Appreciating the good aspects and contributing more of what one wants to see is how I feel about it. GAF managed to get insufferable in various ways and yet look how many posted there. Hell, demi has more posts on RE that many members have here This place is hardly like that. At least some explain why they're leaving rather than just asking to be wiped inexplicably.

The slowness of this place is more of a feature than a bug for me. I don’t have the energy for a neogaf/resetera sized board (lol my phone autocorrected neogaf to neofascist) and I get breaking news from twitter/reddit so I don’t need this place to be that. I’m still hear since the stuff that gets posted here makes me laugh and I post funny stuff that I see on the internet to (hopefully) make other people laugh.

I’ve tried discord in the past and get bored fast since either the channel is dead or it’s way too popular and can’t keep up. I’d much rather play games or read than spend a lot of time in a chat room anyways.

I wouldn’t call this place dead, there’s decent activity in threads here (if you want a dead forum go here: https://dinardetectives.net/index.php). So yeah I’ll still be posting here unless this place actually dies or I get told to leave by enough people here.

Love y’all!

Oh hi momo, back for your bi-monthly gripe? Well, see ya later

[BIONIC]

What if we ban the mods and kill them?

Would that bring people back?

The discord is cool because we don't let any of the degenerates post.

[Transhuman]

Not a single one

[BIONIC]

I had no idea stost left the discord

[team filler]

I literally asked him not be antisemitic and it was too much, fuck off with that shit, Hardcore Retro

I don't remember this at all. my bad, really. I'm usually reasonable when approached directly 

[Pissy F Benny]

filler threw the jew down the well so his country could be free

[team filler]

I think it’s more sad that some people stuck their necks out to establish a chance for you and you decide to bitch about it here instead. Guess when I’m wrong, I’m wrong. Good luck to you

A chance at a fucking discord chat. Come on... Absolutely pathetic. No wonder Filler doesn't want in.

A lot of us like filler and understand he wont fit in unless he somewhat neuters himself, I know it's a selfish ask, but I'd rather have 40% concentrate filling than no filling 

thing is, you guys didn't have to tell me anything. discord is different and my approach to it would be different. a lot of what I do on the internet I do because I know people are watching, or I zone out and it's like nobody will ever see it because I don't slow down to think about any of it.

[BIONIC]

The bore needs emoji reactions.

[Tuckers Law]

Wait, filler is an anti-semite?

[team filler]

  naw, people have just been programmed to be oversensitive about a certain group of YTs, I like having fun with that. I can make fun of every group of people on the planet, but let me poke fun at the person who believes in the development and protection of a Jewish nation assholes and their supporters. then it's "oh no, how dare you not care about these rich colonizers who get everything they want  "
