I wonder if I have fallen out of favor at TRF. I can't do anything other than log on. I have sent half a dozen messages, and no response. Has anybody heard anything about this? I'd like to respond to a few threads asking where I've been.

Sorry to hear that.

The forum crashed last fall, and everything was lost. You need to re register.

But you can always stay here........

I'll have one of the Admins check their list.

PM will be sent in a moment...

Shrox, are you physically back here in the US or are you still in the UK?

If so where?

Shrox,
I think you will find the folks here at YORF more friendly, as well as the forum being far LESS restrictive with ZERO over-moderation that is constantly found on TRF.
I did not even renew my account at TRF due to the constant over-moderation.

I had been quite happy with both versions of TRF pretty much until last night when this crap unfolded:

Sounds about typical of TRF.
Quite frankly I like the no-holds-barred approach of Newton's 3rd with the ENTERTAINING flame wars rather than the over-moderation "commander knows all and what is best" attitude of TRF.
On Newton's 3rd, when people deserve to be blasted, they get BLASTED with ZERO attention paid to being PC or at all political. I LIIIIIKKKKKKKE that kind of RIGHT attitude.
Our entire country as a whole would be in much better shape if the amount of PC behavior reverted back to about say what it was in the WWII era; namely about ZERO.
Many users over there have been banned from the original TRF just by stating the truth, albeit in a frank borderline nasty manner.

I just read that whole thread and commented at the end of it.

So... when will Scott/LTVScout put a goonies forum in place here at YORF?
