What's the most civilized forum you frequent?

[TecHNooB]

For me, it's AT. It goes downhill from there

The least civilized for me is probably d2jsp.org. I go there to trade for Diablo II items. Too many teenagers..

 

[KeithTalent]

I visit Egullet.org regularly and it is quite civilized, but to be honest I don't frequent very many outside of AT.

I used to frequent Home Theater Forum.

AVS Forum is far more civilized than AT.

That place sends shudders down my spine... thankfully my 2k fg over there just collects dust nowadays since I don't really do any trading anymore.

Didn't think a fellow ATer was over there.

I... I guess ATOT would be the most civilized TRUE forum.

If you're going to be loose with the term, I would consider /. to be more civilized.

The least civilized would be the silkroad forums. God damn 15 year old Turkish kids are annoying as hell, and they're mostly self-righteous botters.

The Mustang Forums

 

[Mr Pickles]

potatowned. no one posts, there are 6 users, so life there is great.

do you still frequent OffTopic? that place is a hell hole right now (or more of one than it was).

 

[l0cke]

A few electronics forums I visit are equal to AT.

I really try to avoid forums that are not civilized.

 

[clamum]

Most: Anandtech Forums. Slashdot, to me, is a bunch of psuedo-intellectuals.

Least: Phor-Chan

Fore chon is not a forum, it's a giant butt. Get it right, jeeze!

 

[Squisher]

Most civilized - ATOT

Most uncivilized - any Newsgroup (for me it's rec.woodworking, rec.gardens, alt.home-repair). With no mods and no way to edit posts even these tame newsgroups can be like the wild wild west sometimes.

do you still frequent OffTopic? that place is a hell hole right now (or more of one than it was).

is it still mostly the 1-word or 1-emoticon responses, all the "crew" this and that, and people bitching at members that don't have a "sub"?

i have an account there but no sub and i visit about twice per year

isn't that where M4H ended up?

yes it is, and Fausto too, but now the owner has decided that you have to *pay* to post/view the main off topic forum. there has been a lot of descent over that, and anyone complaining about it gets banned.

<---- me has found new appreciation for ATOT.
