Is ENWorld getting less friendly?

Funny how things perk up.

Maybe the Nothingland attitude is leaking back on ENWorld...

Don't go blamin' us. We're the nicer board. Always have been, always will be.

3. Good moderation: I've been to many forums where the moderators were lazy and refused to do their jobs, and it became nearly impossible to have a good discussion there. Even worse were the moderators who would look the other way when their friends were breaking the rules, but cracked down hard on anybody else who did the same thing. The ENWorld mods, OTOH, are very good at their job. They close threads that get out of control, steer wandering discussions back on topic, and move out-of-place posts to their appropriate forums. They also don't make exceptions for their friends.

So, in closing, I'll take ENWorld at its most argumentitive over most other internet forums any day of the week.

You forget the troves of gaming boards with power-tripping 15 year old moderators that "pwn3d" threads.

I'm the living proof the ENW community is still the best.


Hmm, that didn't sound right. What I meant was that it's twice in a row I've been given a CS account by people I never met and to whom I asked nothing. That's an astonishing level of generosity, and says a lot on the friendliness of the community.

PPS: The "Nothingland attitude" mentionned by Dimwhit is more good-natured ribbing between friends than actual hostility.

Not to poke a sleeping giant, but I honestly have to say, I completly disagree.

If this changes into a comparison of our two boards, I'm going to be severely displeased. Let's not go there, please.

But if we went there, we could go there, right?

Of course, there is down right now, so we couldn't go there, and we shouldn't go there here.

Or something.

They're there at their site. But there there, buddy; hang tough. I'm there for you.

"Why are you talking like that?"

"I thought you wanted me to."

[With some asperity] "No I don't."

[shrug] "Suit yourself, I'm easy."

"Werewolf."

"Where wolf?"

"There wolf... and there... and there."

I'm not.
