Guitar/Music forums and boards?

Any of you frequent any music forums? Mainly guitar forums? Mainly looking for one with a good bit of traffic and mods who aren't crazy?
I joined the fender forum. No problems. But they don't have a ton of traffic.
I also joined acousticguitarforum.com..... Hole E. shite!!!! I got fricking banned!!
I understand not all forums are equal. But within 2 weeks I have received 4 PMs from one moderator. I said "crap" or "bastard" in a post. BAM! Ok no cussing, I get it. I refrain. Someone posts pics of a guitar I think is awesome, I say "OMG I've just been told I cannot curse so I will keep it clean saying how awesome that guitar is." BAM!!!! No discussing contact with the moderators?? I was even accused of laughing at the moderator in his PM. I asked about smaller builders, info on who to look for because I read a book. The guy in the book was on a budget of about $1000. The book was written in 1979. So I put that in my post to let them know that I knew the price point was dated. I got feedback and an invite from an actual builder, seemed like a cool guy. I get messages and a PM from the same mod about possibly moving the post/thread as it is insulting given the price I threw out there. I say that an ACTUAL builder was first to reply and was not insulted. (Kinnaird guitars out of Nacogdoches BTW) One of them was very nice. Their guitars start at a base of $5200 and appear to be worth it. That guy takes time to reply, but my thread gets moved. Big deal. Could have been whacked but wasnt.
My offense today that I can imagine.. I was accused of racism!!!
A guy quoted a list of "first guitar guitar builders". Another poster states (paraphrasing) Whats up? No Alvarez listed? Whats up with that? My reply "Alvarez! Keeping the Mexican man down. You know the struggle being from Houston area" which was listed in his screen bio. The list in question was from a publication and not a member, and I was being totally sarcastic.
I am triggered!!! Lol. I'd love to porn bomb the damned site, but I'll be nice. I will only piss and moan to you guys and suggest you stay away. Sad really.
Can anyone point me to a forum that is highly trafficked but friendly?
End of rant!

Reddit?
I really want to bash this site to as many people as will listen.
I need to calm down.
I've said some horrendous shite on here. I think I've had one or two threads whacked and one "cut it out" warning.

Bump because I’m still mad. Lol

r/Guitars is alright. I tend to browse the music composition subreddits as I'm more interested in composition theory and techniques.

Yeah I looked at what Bob suggested. Just too deep into song writing for me.

What are you looking for?

This site but just Guitars. Not the traffic that this site sees, but not 25 looks a day. Not looking to e-fight with people or tell them their guitar sucks or they suck. Not looking to post porn. Maybe drop a "shite" or "damn" occasionally. Basically looking for a site with our mods. If you lose your shite and threaten to kick someone's arse you get a "cmon BAW" from a moderator.

Warmoth seems to have a decent board.

Hello Shack. The site I am bitching about was cool. Actually had a dude like you who would chime in on many threads. Wildly fancy acoustic builder. Some very cool site sponsors who would come in as well.
I have read some about the SD forums.

Have you ever looked at the Ultimate Guitar forum? I actually haven't but it seems like a pretty good one at first glance. They have a lot of sub-forums for things like acoustic, electric, gear, techniques, building & customization, etc.

Harmony Central was great back in the day. Haven't been there in years.

I am on Talkbass. It is a huge worldwide community. They are real touchy there though. Don't say anything bad and don't hurt anyone's feelings. Someone posts a picture of their bass and you say it is ugly, gone.
