I spend some time on other sites that foucs on other areas of interest, but not one of them even come close to having the sense of community, humor, honesty, and compassion that is found on TB. For me, TBOT is the perfect mix of intelligent conversation and ridiculous nonsense. For lack of a better term, it's the most "human" forum I've found. |

|  | I wanna be...say, what day is it today, Ted? | | Join Date: Dec 2008 Location: Location, Location | | I dig this site, alright. I used to post more actively but the pace around the workplace has picked up way too much for me to do much of that lately. I still enjoy taking a quick peek at the basses when I can which gives me a little lift in my day here and there. I find all of the posters to be entertaining, informative, helpful, funny, amusing and engaging. It's a cool place!

| | | | I experience it differently altogether. I'm not a fan of butt kissery, and you can easily identify the moderators by the fawning replies to their posts. There is also a lot of dismissive , condescending troll behavior towards new members. Just my experience, yours may vary. |

That and other reasons

Just my experience, yours may vary. | Condescending behavior towards new members happens when new members behave in such a way to attract such attention. If you don't enjoy the vibe of this forum, there are plenty of other places where you might be more comfortable. Participation is completely voluntary. Or, you could relax a bit and reserve your judgement until you get to know the place a little better.
Personally, I identify the moderators by the word "Moderator" right there near their screen name. Another way is to break a bunch of forum rules and get some first hand experience with the Hammer of Loving Kindness. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
