Yeah, I think I am just super overwhelmed. Things haven't changed that much, but I did get real old real fast. I honestly wish we still have the 'I just got a digital camera - tell me what to take photos of' threads. I might saunter over to pet island and see if thats still something I can do. I have an entirely different cat now. The forums lived longer than my cat.

90% of goons are in our late 30s - early 40s, everyone is just as old as you op

There’s really no need to be intimidated. You can either make good posts or you can post exclusively about schlubby-middle-aged-craft-beer-guy stuff. Both are surefire paths to friendship and success.

I have friends from this place that I have had for... twenty years now and it is incredible. But yeah, I get super intimidated. When I first started posting all I got was bullied by another girl for my nose, and memes made out of my cat. Haha. It's just a whoooole lot of content to catch up on. I had come back a few years ago, but also got intimidated. I think I just need to find a niche. :) Goons are some of my fave people.

The Leper’s Colony remains a solid resource (provided the Goofus & Gallant learning model works for you).

The recent ”what’s going on around the forums” announcement thread that’s stickied on the weekends has been a treasure chest so far as well and is probably more of what you’re looking for. Unfortunately, I do not have a link for that one. It just shows up on the weekend and I click it.

I smacked my head real bad on a cabinet earlier and it must have done some damage because here I am feeling compelled to rant and ramble about the forums.

I like Nom’s thread. I enjoy maybe a quarter of his posts. I don’t really understand why he drives so many other goons crazy and find it amusing that he does.

I also like having a corner of the internet that isn’t entirely terrible to post in. As much as I hate to admit it, moderation is a big part of why this is possible and absolutely no one would agree to do that job if they weren’t empowered and supported to take direct action and keep this from happening just as soon as they see it coming:







…because that’s a hell of a lot of work to clean up and I would hope that no one with buttons is deranged enough to want to deal with it after it snowballs. And it’s no mystery as to what happens when you let Something Awful snowball out of control. That’s how you get 4chan.
