Are We Eating vL?

[iago]

Well, here I want to see all threads, since it's my home forum. And at vL, I want to see all threads because I don't really post. But I know what you mean, and it's handy.

I came here not knowing many people - I talked to Trust, Sidoh and rabbit on BNET, but I didn't know anyone else.  The only reason I'm still here is because the community is very welcoming, everyone gives you a chance when you come here.  Regardless, I stopped going to vL quite some time ago,  it really seems like if you aren't in their little 'group' that you aren't welcome and it discourages people from going there IMO.

Very true.  Except for the difference of people that brought me here, that is the exact same reason I am still here, why I became an actual** member of these forums, and why I left the vL forums.

** By actual I mean I am listed as a clan(?) member and have a say in what goes on around here.  I'm able to directly affect the community.

The vL forum never really seemed all that active to begin with, imo.  Maybe it's because I visit larger forums, or always just skimmed past all the boards between "The Media Motel" and "Thing-O-Rama ™" ( ) but even when I first heard about vl back in early '04 it didn't seem to be very hoppin.

Or maybe it's just cause I'm a noob who didn't hear about vL until early '04...

That's why you've never seen it *really* active.

We like to let you think you have a say. But really, it's run by a select few, the Illuminati, who decide the results of all votes and elections. Sorry!

I demand  to be let into this selective group or I'll call it a hate crime.

I love you!

But yeah, vL has gone downhill over the past year or two, while x86 has gone uphill. For example, I used to take all my serious questions (examples, the copyright thing and the HD copying) to vL, and now I wouldn't think twice about posting it here instead.

If I have a very technical question, I still post it at vL. I tend to get better technical answers there, like about assembly or something.
