I have no time or patience for unwarranted hostility one gets over there.

I’ve avoided CGC forum. Went through a few threads looking for info. The questions were legit and the responses were sarcastic, rude, or nonsensical with maybe 1-2 relevant answers at that point the OP probably bounced.

It's like the Roach Motel for comic collectors. chester15 private msg quote post Address this user
A big problem there is that the thread frequently gets hijacked within a handful of posts toward some subject that the masses feel like thrashing around that day. The closest thing to it that I have seen on here was a question about what eBay coupons were out there by @BigRedOne1944. That took a few left turns, got onto the subject of offers (which I unthinkingly contributed to - apologies), but NOTHING compared to what's on the "Dark Side".

Sorry! I’ll try to be better!

But, seriously, one of the many reasons I chose CBCS and this forum was because I perused the boards at CGC.

It seemed too much like a lot of “Comic book guy” from the simpsons.
Plus, I truly think companies should be more active in “policing” their forums.

The battle royale model just isn’t one I find to be conducive to anything other than creating some internet tyrants.

Looking at the posts here, it seemed more positive.

😂 I had to be hypocritical for a moment. I assumed that is what you meant.

I feel like you’ve just described the internet, in general.

I remember back in the old AOL chat room days, there was this guy who hated me because I didn’t treat him with the reverence he expected.

He told me I couldn’t even talk to him because he’s be on the internet longer than me.

Forums and chat rooms do strange things to people.

I can think of at least two people over there who consistently derail threads. It happens. I just find what I need and move along.

When there is no chance for repercussions, people will say whatever they want when anonymity is there to hide behind.

Sadly, one soda pop consistently outperforms the other when it comes to resale value. Even though the cheaper one is subjectively better.
