Would be different pond, same algal bloom issue.
Tl;dr (this rant was a long time coming) the site's stuck in poop. Nothing to do about it at this point, it's all over everything and no amount of scraping will get it off at this late point. I'm here for you guys, I really don't particularly care about the setting anymore.

Here for me? I so expect you to take me bar hopping in Paris. We will start where I may have met your mother.

I don't blame the site as much as I blame the people. To give max credit, the site developed it's own little ecosystem. Some of it is pretty good, i have learned things from posters here, other parts are eventually going to hurt the kids who get an idea of a reality that just does not exist. All you can do is point out reality, and watch the advice get ignored.

I am not sulking.

My new years resolution of mostly ignoring TET is still valid \o/

There is truth in what you say, to be honest. I've been here for the good part of around 4 years now, and I've seen that you and others have tried to do something positive. But then again most of the people on the upper levels are complacent with how the site is at this point.

I saw some potential in positive changes too, but became disenchanted when the mods kept pushing back against change. It's one of the reasons why I would never become a mod in this site, because if there is a site that desperately needs to see beyond their noses, this is one of them, but it's not going to happen. I mean, nowadays I post for a cheap laugh or to make a serious point, but overall I'd rather just not post. Also, I'm not annoyed at the lack of control, I'm somewhat used to a lack of control, but it is annoying to see good ideas from good people tossed to the curb.

And, same here basically. I am here because you, Ethel, Gallo, Nana, and others are here. I've gotten bored and annoyed about NS at this point, but you guys are important enough for me to keep coming to this site.

And, I wouldn't want a straight-collar, swottish Galla. You're fine as you are <3

Yes, their webcams are totally not behind a website.

Seriously, I've met various Php developers who work in that industry.

Honestly, the depictions of reality here fall in two camps:

The everything is great and dandy and nothing could ever possibly go wrong kind of mentality and the "everything is f*cked. Can I go buy a pistol now and shoot someone, or myself?" camp.

Neither is correct. I mean, life's hard, but not that hard. However, like we say where I come from "el entendido a senias y el burro a palos". If they choose not to listen to wise advice and learn from the more experienced people, life will teach them.

At least the first camp is more fun to be around.

Porn pays.

The question is how are the benefits?

Mine are humour and alcohol.

It's weird to think that this place started out as a place for some random author to promote his book, and here it still is, a decade and a half later, thriving. Really puts things in perspective.

The internet is a dark and scary place, I agree.
