Poliboard kicks people off with dissenting opinions waaayyy too quickly...heaven forbid people read things from outside the bubble.

Private Messaging would be great.

Ability to upload GIFs, pics, YouTube vids, etc. without having to go through a hosting site.

Night/dark mode.


All that said, one of the most impressive things about this site is how well they've built the infrastructure to handle massive numbers of users. I've never once experienced any sort of lag or a "server unavailable" message since I've joined. Not sure if it's Chicken or some other professional but, whoever it is, does a hell of a good job.

Instead of banning people, they should just make their posts invisible. I think that’d be worse than being banned

I figured as much but I would like to think Chicken could get a nice deal with the traffic and money this place brings in.

But apparently the YouTube was attempted and failed Did the site just lag?

RA shite....little qu**rs like Tidlesurge who try to bait people into getting band is BS.

You want to put out a good product that people can Express an OPINION Then do so. Other opinions should not be a reason to be banned...

WHEW! You scared me.

Discussionist was the "other" forum Skinner owned. It will no longer accept new members.

It was loaded with lib posters whose sole job was spreading disinformation. After the election about 15 or 20 of the most active liberals never came back.

Have a “block” setting so post from certain people don’t show up.


In theory this might sound like a good idea, it would not be a good thing. If you block several people and you see people you haven't blocked responding to someone you have blocked you will be unblocking them to see what they are responding to, etc.

But you can just ignore posters.

That's why it doesn't have a lot of features that are considered normal on forums. More features means more database queries which is what slows sites down.
