Hello everyone, I'm from the Video Forum

[dug777]

hehe, i divide my time between Video & OT these days, and OT is indeed a wonderful place by comparison

 

[tfinch2]

No fanboyism?

Will all Canon fanboys please stand up?

 

[DrPizza]

lmao, all you have to do is read forum issues for a couple of weeks and you'll realize that you should never ever step foot in video..

I came over from FS/FT a few months ago, very addicting it is.
Now, no matter how hard I try, I can't even go 2 hours without hitting the refresh button!

2 hours? Try 10 seconds

This forum moves fast, too.

Welcome, just wait, we fight at lighting speeds around here.

This place is like a flashmob...but unlike Video, around here, people have fights over asian imports / domestic, .999.../1, religion/atheism, and just about everything else *but* video cards.

We farm out videocard and political/religious debates to other forums. If one goes to P/N, and then things that those topics USED to be in OT. They'll get a cold shiver throughout thier body.

Politics, yeah. Religion is still here, unfortunately. Needs to move, though, IMHO.

Welcome to ATOT, my advice for you is too stay away from the ATOT Hot Buttons.

-Guns
-Homosexuality
-Imports vs. Domestics
-Abortion
-Atheists vs. God
-Reposts
-P&N Content
-XBOX 360 vs. Sony POS3 vs. Wii

I'm sure some others will be able to offer you input on more of the ATOT Hot Buttons, but thats all I could think of for now. Enjoy your stay!

ATOT is a strange and wonderful place.

No fighting, no trolling, no fanboyism. And the mods seem to actually patrol this area, the Video forum has been left to defend itself. And having your system in your sig doesn't seem to be a prerequisite. Its like a whole new culture here, a difference as if I travelled across the globe.

Yay for ATOT.

Welcome.

BTW-There is fighting, trolling and fanboyism in ATOT. The fighting is over stuff like who has the bigger epenis, trolls are well, trolls and the fanboyism is mostly car related (I've been accused of being a Japanese fanboy-completely unwarranted too).

For some reason this conjures up an image of a FFVII style battle screen with 'atheists' on one side and 'God' on the other.

There was a day, when the "girl threads" included hot pics. But alas, those were laid to rest.

Don't you mean +.99999999999999...?

 

[Golgatha]

Don't do it man! I started in FS/FT, ventured over to Video, then to Off Topic with a quick stop into Distributed Computing. Off Topic is by far the biggest time sink.

Wait till a thread mentions religion...

Religion's not really as bad as politics. I've yet to see a massive flame war over religion here, but politic wars explode all over.
