That's right kiddies. I'm still alive. I haven't logged in here in I don't even know how long. Those of you who know me, know I used to go by another name, till I decided to Ghost myself. Those of you on FB know me as "Nick". 
With all the craziness going around, and the constant mess of crap spewed from the news, I've literally just turned off the News and I only use FB now for Marketplace.
Is this the time for Forums to come back? I think FB killed them, but honestly, I'm about done with the crazy Karen's on there. I prefer the insane debauchery that we used to instigate in here.
So what say ye? Forums make a comeback in 2021?

I think you may be right.
I haven't logged in on here in YEARS... only thought of it because Chrome indicated I should change my password due to it potentially being compromised (on this and other sites)... logged in to change it and thought I'd take a look around.

No sorry, forums not coming back.
It's pretty easy to filter what you see on FB, in fact you have to ADD or accept people as friends even to see them in the first place, and then can limit who sees you and who you see. This "fb bad" thing is pretty boomer-ish, "get off my lawn!" lol.

Does it mean you're going to sell me your SANTE?
Also, do you guys think Grouch has served his sentence and should be unbanned? |
That's a big old HELL NAW!!!

You use it for your business, so it's clearly useful. Hell young people don't even really use Facebook anymore, so me going away from it doesn't exactly make me "boomerish". I just don't like the ads, wording filters (I got a time out for calling a guy a Tone Deaf Shart Waffle and a Dicknose Rectum Jockey). I mean hardly terrible all things considered. It's just stupid these days.
Other than Marketplace, there just isn't a use for it anymore.

Forums made a huge comeback, they're just consolidated to reddit now.
I used to post here as a child and remember being intellectually outclassed by almost everyone. I just turned the big 3-0 and decided to reminisce the sites I browsed half of a lifetime ago for old times sake.
It's not boomerish to dislike facebook. Their corporate philosophy is trash and I'm trying to slowly back off of it.

| Sorry wb.com but I’ve just recently started following Reddit, and that’s where it’s at. I will regularly see things posted on Reddit, and then 2-3 days later those things will be picked up by major news outlets. I don’t even need to check news websites anymore.

I still ride, but my knees hate it. My kids, who have been surfing for some time, now are all about wakeboarding, which is cool. It would be awesome if this place came back to life.

| I actually got behind the boat a couple weekends back while helping teach my buddy's kids to ride. Not sure I'd been on a wakeboard (vs a surfboard) for maybe 10yrs? Had a clean run w/ a single w2w jump and tossed the line after - I wasn't going to push my luck! Pretty stoked about it!

Won 2nd in my class behind the boat and 3rd in a big air kicker contest this past weekend... completely whiffed it in the rail contest though  Get back out there guys... You don't have to be the best rider to get in a quick set and share the stoke with friends/family!
