Ttlg Down?

Who gives a fuck, there are a million forums on the net, a lot of them better than that one. Take your pick.

I tend to agree. It's a long time since I remember there being any interesting dicussion on TTLG, either in the Thief forums or the general ones.

It's not so much the discussions - more relevant for me are the people, the information on technical stuff for games I like and my habit of using TTLG as some kind of internet hub.

 

Also, I was pissed off because I missed an important-ish PM.

[Fingernail]

yeah, it's the people

 

once you get in, you can't stop

 

also I find that no other forums can compare in the same way, somehow.

Not so taken with the people myself. At least here you can have a mature disagreement, on TTLG it doesn't get far before "omg stfu j00 suck l0l!!!!"

[Fingernail]

that's how I like my internet

I think TTLG's biggest problem is its age. Some people have been around for 7 years, and this shows especially in the lore related forums. At some point, you've seen the new threads that pop up all before.

Another thing is that TTLG has, like every board, its own memes. Older members like to make reference to fun stuff of the past, or fool around in general - not very translucent for new members, who neither know the meme nor the member. I think a lot of the percieved aggression in ComChat originates in that.

 

The actual number of the "omg stfu j00 suck l0l!!!!" people on TTLG is very low. At least of those who mean it like that - I'm getting somewhat tired of the (mostly) predictable LOL FUNKY INSIDE REFERENCE responses, too.
