Topic: Why I love QGL and hate other forums
Mr Hardware
Posts: 5615
Location: Brisbane, Queensland
So I'm sure everyone here is a member of another forum as well. I come to QGL for the bunch of personalities and the free speech. Sure i'm not allowed to go mental, but it's pretty darn free for most intents and purposes. I'm a member of another forum and whilst largely a technical forum, even in the pub section you still get reprimanded for having an opinion different to the crowd. If that were the case in life, i would have been locked up long ago. And thats why i love QGL, i can just come on, say my opinion, factual or not, and people will either laugh or ignore and no-one will get upset.
Go QGL!

I go on other forums but only once off posts these days registering accounts with http://www.guerrillamail.com/

I like it here but it would be improved by more chicks. I work in a male dominated field. I see and talk to enough blokes during the day.

Get f***ed Mr Hardware, no one cares about you or your gas powered bus!

Yeah, this is pretty good!

I occasionally look at OCAU, mainly Photography section which isn't too bad, but overall it's uber crap.

I'm a one forum guy.

Haha, yeah, I hate over-moderated forums. The one I run I don't think we've banned anyone unless they asked to be. The community can normally sort out a d******* on it's own IMO.

Edit:

I've been banned from Gamearena and OCAU for quoting what someone else said, thought that sucked.

In summary, get f***ed i will tiger knee you in the face, as per avatar, a******.

Gamearena was hilarious, especially because it was full of Telstra staffers who had nothing else to do & it was the only forum they could access from behind the corporate firewall.

Hah yeah, I was one of them. All we had without tunnels was Gamearena and for a while Wikipedia. Was fun reading all the kids bitch about Telstra workers spending all their time on GA and not fixing their ADSL or something.

Edit: Haha, I didn't read your username, you ex-Telstra slacker :D

The one thing that ruins most forums is moderation. And yes, OCAU is moderated by a bunch of clowns.
Whirlpool and QGL though are just inconsistent and the mods don't talk to each other :)

I like QGL's moderation.

I'm a member of a complete no rules forum (only things banned are criminal and pedo) and it's shocking... new members make their first post and it's just an onslaught of scat.

I'm not a member of any strict forums, they can f*** themselves, only exception is dropzone.com where the mods rule with an iron fist but only because misinformation has and continues to kill various members that come to post.

I like QGL, but after today I prefer Gizmodo because they get comments like the 3rd one in this thread:
There's like an adult back, it's someone has zero defends my sense an adult back, it's like and no air play, it just offense an adult hitting fundamentally unfair about should I cheer for rockets to him?

There's someone has zero defense or rockets to hitting someone from 2000 feet with a huge cannon when that someone from 20000 feet with a kid, yeah he'll with a kid, yeah he'll with a huge cannon when that should I cheer force or hit back, it


You guys need to up your game.

I'm on many sites with tough moderation. It doesn't bother me. Professional sites need to keep troublemakers off.

Na it's not a scat forum, it's just a subforum (of around ~30) of a psychedelic drug site.

All forums are heavily moderated bar one, which has no rules bar criminal or pedo... they like to think of themselves as a mini 4chan and do all types of illegal s***.

Bunch of a tards, it just goes to show what happens when there's zero moderation.

You know what I mean Phooks.

By illegal I mean you can't go posting you have Oxy's for sale or something dodge, but they will arrange attacks (I dunno how, I'm not in IT) on various websites through cryptic language and all types of jazz.

What story? Agg is a douche and found it easier to ban me than the f***wits who baited me and then I snuck back in as 'me' with a different name to prove a point and was undetected for over a year and only outed myself because my ex's stalker ex was on there as well.

As for Atomic? I am pretty sure I commented on a members ability to mother properly and she got sand in her vagina. So rather than taking responsibility as a mother and bettering herself she batted her eyelids at a few mods and got me banned me by playing the woe is me card.

No story to tell :P

Its kinda funny was about Swine Flu:

i have reading how people in here are saying there don't understand why the government is acting like this well this is my opinion the world is overpopulated oil is about to peak the elites are scared of the coming caos as society is about to break reading the ïron mountain report reveals some insights from the club of Rome i forsee a time where a depopulation agenda will be rolled out on a planetary scale i know the us alone have 150 underground cities with maglev train systems the elite will go underground while there release airborne Ebola then wait it out a few years then come up and start a new civilization i think there did this in ancient Atlantis we are know at the crux of it again this explains why we have always had royal bloodlines and all history has been keeped from humanity trust me man did not evolve up from monkeys. why didn't monkeys evolve then we a slave race this is a reptilian controlled prison planet again this is my research and my opinion with a touch of real life experience humanity about to be shown the puppet masters we are in the last days.

The only other games forum I frequent is the somethingawful games forum because threads for games are generally packed full of information and the quality of the threads is pretty decent.

I also run my own forum which has a games subsection, but its mainly just close friends that post there so its pretty cool.

yeah looking back I can thank Qgl forum for introducing me to new friends and colleagues that I probably would not have met any other way. My life is better for it.

I guess this is why I still come here to goof off.

oh.. and lets not forget that Qgl was the best Lan Australia will ever know ;)

it's kinda like our own 'Woodstock'
