This can be a pretty fun place to kill time but at this point that $10 paywall is meaningless and keeps nobody out. Every motherfucker has $10 and a credit card these days. The content that gets posted here is pretty much indistinguishable from everywhere else. Go look at other medium-large forums and they're all pretty much talking about the exact same poo poo in the exact same way except they have their own memes and inside jokes.

There are people here that will just keep reregistering forever, no matter how they banned or why and I don't understand that.

Idk maybe. I enjoy the same jokes over and over again as they never get old to me ("same", "im gay", "hosed up if true", where do you goons come up with this stuff?!), but maybe it'd be a liberating experience. Kind of like if a fire burned my house and all my poo poo.

Here's one that is completely indistinguishable from GBS.

http://badforums.com/

I'm not just posting because of the name. It's actually the same forum and I suspect half of GBS posts there too.

reddit.com

Same poo poo you'll see here there's just with more people. gently caress, half of the stuff that gets posted here comes straight from there.

indistinguishable, one thread in their main forum has one post since Monday. Are you trying to sell us your own website's bbforum?

Same here. Usually the mods only ban the truly poo poo people or the really unfunny people

So I got about 3 months left.

I didn't know following your link to their forums list, then clicking one link in that list was "in depth". I didn't even read a post, but it kind of takes away from your proposal

No I mean that you were right to call me out on that forum being super dead because when I looked at it I didn't even notice the dates stuff was posted. I was just looking at the content.

Well if you've somehow got your SA account connected to the locks on your doors you have noone to blame for that but yourself and probably radium.

lol at anyone who answered "yes" because you're essentially telling Lowtax he can get a free :10bux: if he bans you for any reason.

Also lol at anyone who answers "no" because basically a mod who wants to get rid of you forever now knows he can.
