Nutkinland and other foreign words

[SpikeyFreak]

(though many nutkinland poster have this self superior attitude and actively disdain ENWorld posters in general)

No, they just disdain SOME posters here.

I post there more than here becuase this place has too much traffic. Sometimes I can't even get here, other times I see a thread, make one comment, then come back and its either 3 pages gone or 3 pages long, and I don't care enough about monks with shields to read a novel with lots of bickering.

Nutkinland is a great location to vent your spleen in the company of fellow Gamer board members. If you wish to rant, rave, curse, shout obscenities and make lewd comments with RPG references, it is an excellent place to do so!

Hmm, Nutkinland isn't all about this.

Sure there is a different posting style, but the boards are mostly fun IMHO.

Ahem...

Pillow Talk
Get between the sheets and discuss love, romance, and sex. But keep the pr0n under the mattress by putting the [UTM] metatag in your subject line!
Fighting Words
Would you like to have an argument? This is where we start fights with other users and talk about things that are better left unsaid. If you want to discuss religion or politics, then this is the forum for you.

I rest my case.

 

[The It's Man]

You listed descriptions of two forums out of the seven that are open to all.

Pop Culture
A tribute to bad taste! Discuss popular culture and consumer ideology, from pop music, B-movies and daytime TV to theme parks, discount stores and fast food chains.

Hazelnut Café
There's no place more welcoming than our café, complete with bistro food, open-mike nights, and works by local artists. Here you can discuss what's on the menu or join the performers in our amateur review

Fun and Games
Game over? Not in here, where hardcore gamers can discuss everything from role-playing games, dice and miniatures to video games and computer hardware. Sports talk goes here too.

Voting Booth
Behind this curtain are dozens of polls and surveys. Pull the lever and cast your vote on the issues of the day!

I know they are there, but they weren't germane to the discussion. I said, "Nutkinland is a great place to do these things," not that that is what it's all about. I post there too, you know -- just not as often as here, because most of my discussions centers around 3E, with the occasional off-topic delve.

But the reason that it's a great place to do so is BECAUSE there are gamer friends there, and because Nutkin and Margo have a different atmosphere there. Here is fun, too - there are plenty of posters to have "fun" with here - but the tone at nutkinland is part of why it's so popular.

Actually, we DO moderate sometimes. We've been invaded recently and so we brought the +12 Banhammer down on their heads. I think we're probably the only board in existance with 35 administrators. We can swing the Banhammer HARD on invaders.

That said, we don't moderate what people say. Tempting as it may be. And outside of Fighting Words, everything is more or less polite. Often more polite than here, I would dare say.

Or, to sum it up:

It's all about the love.

You're wrong. Nutkinland was never popular.

I see, I have to brush up my english a bit more. With Hmm, Nutkinland isn't all about this., on reaction to your first statement, I meant to say that there is more to NL than ranting and so on. You wouldn't hear me saying there was no ranting at all.
