If Trump can get elected...ANYTHING is possible.I didn't read the OP, but I agree because all traces of my posts need to be erased so I can run for President one day.
It'll die on it's own eventually.
Yeah we all remember, but the mods haven't given a shit for many years. Remember the old naughty points and autobans? Those are long gone and the forum is much less busy so moderation isn't as hard. Let's be real though, moderating a forum with as high of traffic as this one was is basically impossible if you are trying to keep it PG, so it's no surprise draconian measures were taken.I haven’t visited these forums in years, but as you can see on my profile, I’ve been a member for 22 years. I used to really enjoy this place, learned a lot, contributed, and even met a few people in real life.
I left because the moderators turned into a bunch of jerks who had power go to their heads, including making it against the rules to talk about the moderators. The mods eventually started supporting trolls and banning quality, contributing members. I even got a temporary ban for calling them out on it, because remember, AnandTech moderators don’t make any mistakes and they are 100% infallible!
But I saw the news that AnandTech is finally shutting down. Then I saw that the forums aren’t shutting down? Weird.
Well, this site and these forums *were* awesome a very long time ago. Somewhere between then and now, the content went to 💩 and the forum moderators ended up stroking their own egos at the expense of pushing people away.
I’d rather see AnandTech completely dead than to see what it has become, and that includes the forum.
Just kill it; it is time. It’s already on life support.
