You definitely win there.

I may have mentioned it a few times before, but the Metal Throne forums are terrible. If you like ANY band that's sold over 1,000 records, you WILL be flamed mercilessly. Just go read some of it.

I was just thinking about some nazi forums.
Those things are disturbing.

Heh, I've actually been there before and though it looks bad quite a few of the members spend their time disapproving the flat earth theory instead of supporting it. But still, crazy place.

Have you ever been in the IMDb forums? 90% of the threads there are troll threads. I got used to it and post from time to time, but the moderating activity is almost non-existent.

MAL is not the best community I have ever found, but considering its problems, among them the lack of discussion at the anime part of the board and the repetition of the same threads over and over, I have to say it is a pretty nice place, and much better than some of the forums I've been into. It takes something to make me stay for two years and write more than 1,000 posts in one place. I think I can only say the same about three or four more sites on the Internet.

I think it's probably more likely that she isn't used to the internet.

Because this community is generally nicer than most others, especially as she is a girl.

You still get assholes, but they are everywhere.

Completely false from my experience. I've been on anime forums with great communities before. Although I must admit I'm not that much into forums now so I don't have accurate news.

Shouldn't /fit/ have more alpha males? Since they're the guys who always raid /a/ and /v/ and question their manliness.

I've never been to /fit/ so I wouldn't know. I've seen some guys on /adv/ get sent over to /fit/, only to come back crying about 5 minutes later. So you're probably right.

“Do You Even Lift?” is a condescending expression used on body building and fitness forums to question the legitimacy of someone’s fitness expertise or weight lifting routine. Similar to other interrogatives like “U Mad?” or “U Jelly?”, the phrase is mainly used to aggravate another user during arguments about physical fitness.

Anime communities are mild compared to the video game forums. XBL either has flammers or just apathetic people.

I say this as a former GameFAQer. By the way, my username is the same here as on that site.

I've met anime fans in real life, and most are nice people. You have a few odd balls.
Most anime forum members are nice people aswell, and are interesting as they can give you different perspecitives on any arguements or points you make.

Apple and Halo fans on the other hand are probably the worst. They don't take criticism of any kind well.

I'm not on many other forums than manga/anime so I wouldn't know... But in the last 1-2 years, the most of the ones who are posting frequently on MAL are annoying with their oh so funny jokes, retarded videos and pointless posts compared to the ones before.

Yeh, you youngsters had it good! Back in the day not a day went by on the MAL forums without a flame war or two, people viciously disagreeing on everything they said, even basic facts like their own gender. Anno Kano would feature regularly in forum brawls with the low lives of MAL, something of a daily spectacle, and generally you didn't say anything unless you wanted to get insulted.
