You guys rock. This the best board out of the many I've posted on over the years. Very friendly (warm and welcoming), helpful, fun conversation, etc. Cool beans.

Oh it totally is. AN has ruined every other message board for me, because none of them are as...intelligent, really.

I mean, other forums are full of people downranking people (publicly!) for merely having different opinions, no matter how well stated, and upranking people for openly mocking those opinions, and just tons of shit like that. Like car forums. Car forums suck. People will call you a troll just for disagreeing on something, it's like group-think.

There's people here I have disagreed with, but I'd still say the overall intelligence level is uncanny. It makes everywhere else feel like YouTube comments. Even when our threads sort of fall apart and need to be locked, I still think they stay civil longer than they would have elsewhere.

and i guess i've known it all along / the truth is, you have to be soft to be strong

We do that sometimes. You're just on the good side of most of it so you don't notice it as much.

The poo logs suggest otherwise. Unless it's a clever front for earwax.

I am personally very glad I found this place looking for tech help with my new Mac Mini years ago. It really is a great place.

There used to be a deal in which ThinkSecret would link here as its official forums.
