thoughts about bladeforums

[Shane769]

I have dealt with the Karma system, on a skiing forum (newschoolers.com). It just ends up exactly as Def described. Everyone is begging for + and use - to mark anyone they don't agree with. I don't have a ton of experience on BladeForums, but I am registered there in case I wanted to read any of the threads there. They seem... so strict.

Well this is funny. Either marcinek loves google himself or somebody here ratted me out, but my account at knifeforum just got banned in the past few days, for the same BS charge he gave me 7 months ago, and I didn't even post anything since.

I primarily hang out in the "Traditional Folders and Fixed Blades" forum with the folksy folks which are a pretty good bunch. I try and stay out of the dark places.

I haven't talked to him in months, I only go to SOSAK there now (not much need for more blades now)

I have found the Maintenance, Tinkering & Embellishment to be a wealth of information on sharpening especially a member named knifenut1013. He has been really friendly and answered many questions I had. He even told a member to call him so he could talk him through a problem he had with a sharpener over the phone. He does amazing work if you haven't seen it.

Seriously, MTO is like an oasis on the internet. Over these past few months I've seen kindness and friendliness I didn't even see in TGF's golden days. Thank you guys.   and  

Right you are!
People here are a bit too nice sometimes...It's a bit suspicious...

There are thousands of forums across the internet, all conforming to the net norms by being bitchy, egocentric and not talking about pliers with pickle forks on.

MTO rebels against this norm by being .... nice

Group hug anyone?

Software upgrade the day before automatically banned everyone who had a warning/strike at any point in the past. They are still trying to figure out how to fix this and some other issues.
