Do you admit to posting here?

[rsbennett00]

Since this forum is widely known as the hateful and mean people tech forum, just a step down from 4chan/neogaf, do you admit to others that you post here?

My real life friends and coworkers know because we get great laughs reading some of the posts here but the only other forum I'm connected to with this account is hardocp. I wouldn't admit on the other forums that I dip into this cesspool.

 

[sdifox]

you did just call this a cesspool compared to hardocp right?

I should clarify that I'm just talking about off topic forums, which I don't think hardocp has, does it? I try not to post there too much with Kyle and all.

hardocp is more totalitarian from what I remember. ATOT does have its share of nuts, but that doesn't mean all of ATOT is nuts.

I remember way way back in the day when Kyle gave me a custom title-- ASSCLOWN

People were actually mad and jealous because I was the only one to have a custom title. heh good times.

 

[Mixolydian]

i have never posted here.

 

[brianmanahan]

this place is not hateful and mean, it is nurturing and loving

sounds like someone had a bad experience here because they caused a bad experience for everyone on their original, now-banned account

 

[Captante]

I would never admit to posting here.

In fact I never do post here. Not ever.

 

[master_shake_]

can you repeat the question?

 

[Platypus]

widely known as hateful? this forum isn't relevant enough for anyone to care lol

 

[IronWing]

Look man, I'm sorry I called you an aspie. You don't have to take it out on the whole forum.

They were probably mad because it was an insult to assclowns.

Oh I have been to far, far worse forums. Ask a simple question about something you're not familiar with and it's troll city for 30 pages with people calling you every derogatory name in the book. I'm speaking more about a couple of car audio forums out there.
There are a few other specific hobby related forums out there that are pretty bad too. Literally moderated by 14 yr old kids.

 

[PlanetJosh]

Well then they would pester me for my forum name for months or years if I told them I posted here. And if I gave them the name then just like for other posters here it would be a little or very embarrassing to have my posts read by some in the general population

 

[brianmanahan]

They were probably mad because it was an insult to a**clowns.

 

[JM Aggie08]

Considering I associate myself with normal people, no. They wouldn't know what AT was even if I brought it up.

 

[Newell Steamer]

These guys aren't hateful and mean - they are bitter and dismissive.

Oh, and prematurely geriatric,... which is where the bitterness probably comes from,...

:hmm:

 

[JulesMaximus]

Admit to who? My wife knows that I post here.

 

[zCypher]

course I do, anandtech is the best <3

I'm like the sanest person here. :awe:

Ever since I started posting here I have had to visit a shrink each week and told her that I visit here. It's getting better through the course of medication and creating my own forum.

 

[chimaxi83]

Yes, I pass out my business card and it lists my AT username. Don't we all?

But why are you mad though? Is it because nobody gives a shit about the tranny-esque porn sluts you post? You claimed you were a "female talent expert", but I'm assuming you're an expert at finding sluts who'll do anything...just not good looking ones.

 

[Braznor]

Folks here are assholes, but thats okay. Grow a thicker skin, people.

 

[Ruptga]

A++ thread, would read again.

I sometimes mention the place, but never by name. I wouldn't expect anyone else to have heard of it, and I keep my social circles separate so I wouldn't even want them to know of the place.

OP's problem is that he doesn't like people calling him on his BS, not that he likes MtFs. Don't let him distract you with that.

nope. You are certifiable.
