Yeah, TBH... it was truly never my intention to start a forum in hopes that everybody and their mother would join it. I pretty much only use forum software because I literally grew up on it and I CANNOT relate to other software, like WordPress/blogs. I can't get into it. It doesn't strike the kind of creativity in me that I require to become totally obsessive about writing.
It's cool if you have an audience, I'm not saying I don't appreciate the idea of other folks seeing the discussions here. I do talk about things because I want to put them out there in an effort to document what I feel is the TRUTH. Then there are all my personal interests that I discuss as well.
But when it comes to OTHER PEOPLE actually being able to post on my site, I am extremely protective. If somebody starts giving me bad vibes, their days are numbered until I drop the hammer on them for good. I trust my instincts after having ~15 years of forum administration experience. I know my shit.
I always encourage people to start their own personal websites, because you can NEVER depend on someone else's site... you SHOULD NEVER depend on someone else's site. Your time is valuable, your words matter, and at the end of the day, they need to be hosted somewhere they will be kept safe and under your own control/access.
