Other forums

Note: this thread is potentially harmful for any cybergeeks out there, since it might encourige adictiveness to the internet, so if you are one of the kind, dont read.

I was wondreing which forums do members of HC participate in. What are they like? (short comments) Better or worse than HC? Provide links if possible. Thank you.

My answer:
Beside HC, I'm a member of civfanatics, a forum dedicated to the game Civilization. And this is "thanks" to PH, cos he told me aboout it. As its name says, it's about fanatics, so not really my type. It lacks the nice private atmosphere of HC, but it has a good history subforum (with lots of smart people participating) if you are interested in boring history. But be warned about the effects though or you might end up like PH writing articles about Israeli militia some 40 years ago and all the possible details about it.

Another forum I visit sometimes, but am not member of, is the scienceforums, a forum dedicated to science (how interesting! ). It's when I need to do some research, cause that site is full of crazy wackoes (namely PHD proffesors) that discuss science, with the rate of a normal person discussing sex and booze.

PS: Sorry Khaelo for posting this here, but please dont remove it in the tavern (until some time), cos i want to hear those people who normally post on the other side above all. Including you.

Alot of HC members also are a part of GuardiansGrove.  It's smaller than HC, which gives it a private feel.  It also has alot more features and buttons.  But I think GG is mostly SPAM.

My Other Sites

http://forums.forgottenwars.net
Forgotten Wars, I go here to meet and talk with game designers enthusiastic enough to contiue making new modules for any D&D game on the market. You'll find the most R.A. Salvatore and any Forgotten Realms information fans here. We're talking plethora of knowledge dating all the way back to the original D&D cartoon and game.

http://www.forumplanet.com/planetbaldursgate/
Planet Baldur's Gate, I go here for fanatical devotion to the Baldur's Gate games. They are die-hard fans here. If you need help with a quest or whatever, this is the place.

http://guardiansgrove.com
Guardian's Grove, I go here when HC crashes. The people here keep things in order when HC fails.

I don't visit them often because they don't have members like bort and Peacemaker. I'm trying to become better acquainted with Privatehudson but I know we still have a long way to go. Valeriy is unique too. I don't understand why he cares so much about the way people treat each other but I think it's a contagion of the friendly sort.

hmm... I am a member in:

Sacred-Junkies Site

A site with a forum about the very details of a virtually awesome game named "Sacred".

GG Site

I prefer this site when I want to play games, post off-topic things and SPAM!

LemonPoo Forums

I'm currently browsing this forum very often, but I'm not a serious poster there.

RT Forums

I only browse the site for some news and stuff about Equilibris and WoG.

and some others... which might be not interesting for you... (i will not say what URLS they have )

Guardians Grove
The premium forum for me, many friends from here and many fun, by talking with them. (And regnus, you can only spam in playroom... I guess you know that alright...And Dingo... I think your head is full of SPAM, so everything you see is SPAM...)

Vandea Forum
Now a bit dead, but it was fun, when there were Vandea Tournaments a year ago, still go there sometimes...

The Round Table
News, Equilibris, Wog and other simmilar stuff, I keep an eye on them.

Might and Magic Tribute forums
Currently VERY interested in the development of Might and Magic fan addon, it looks promising...

Ubisoft forums
I do nothing there, just I'm ready in case of Homm5 release...

Guardians Grove
The forum I visit most- friendly people, nice conversations, everyone is mostly familiar with each other, so that makes GG special. (And Regnus, you know that quite well- spam is only in Playroom! And the fact that you like to spam in other forums too doesn't mean GG is for spamming.)

Offspring power
Forums about my one of the favourite bands - The Offspring.

Warcraft 3 Campaigns
A wide discussion about War3 mapmaking, also has very interesting download section with lots of stuff.

Skateboarding forum
A board about skating that I visit sometimes.

Apart from HC, I come to GG and post something every now and then. I also go to GMClan Forum, but that's in Polish The offtopic sections aren't that active and people only come there to discuss their game making problems and stuff. I also used to be active at the squidi.net forum, but I don't go there anymore. Don't ask why because I'm not really sure

Svarog, I'd be careful about doing research on that Scienceforums site.  I scanned through quickly and there are a number of partial truths and just plain errors in it (at least in the biology sections).

I dont know about the biology section, but yes, about some others, I agree. You wont believe all the stupid stuff people post, esp. in Physics.

Anyway, there are sometimes interesting lessions, I suppose by people who know their job. I think the forum's useful for finding the more interesting parts of science (if you can put the words science and interesting in one sentence that is). But it's a forum after all. I'm not that stupid to believe all some big-headed nerds say there.

And one other thing I like about it, is the interesting ideas for debate topics, cause I do debate and most of the topics I've debated have become cliches over time.

Thanks for caring about the credibility of my databases though.

As of June, these were my usual haunts for school-year procrastination:
Beliefnet -- Massive multi-faith religion site.  I used to be active in the Wicca section; now I lurk on the Paganism boards.  The articles can be quite interesting as well.  This was my first internet bulletin board and is still my favorite to read.  Everything from intellectual discussion to emotional sharing to ranting lunatics...what more do you need?  

MysticWicks: "Online Pagan community," 'nuf said.  Very large, lots of variety across the sub-forums.  Also has all the nifty forum features Beliefnet lacks, plus some...

The Round Table -- already cited and linked.  

Caucus -- my college's collection of forums for students, alumni, faculty, and staff to discuss all sorts of stuff (password protected, cannot link).  Some classes now require Caucus posts as part of their participation grade!

The only other places I go are the two links in my siggy.

Guardians Grove
I've made some great friends there, and it's nice to see HC members joining us there.

Gaia Roleplaying Forums.
What can I say, if I'm not here or at GG, chancer are I'm at Gaia.

My username is tigerangel at both forums, in case anyone should be inclined to contact me there.

Here it goes:

Ocensurerat (?) Online (Swedish PC Gamer forum)
Mostly a gaming forum in swedish. But I usually am in the Hardware and Strategy sections. A fun and rather "warm" forum. This is my favourite forum, but that's mainly because it has one of the best hardware-forums in the world.

Rcaston Forum
Rodney Caston's (one of the creators of Megatokyo. Some say he is the father of MT.) forum. A very small forum, with a lot of nonsense.

List My Games
Another swedish gaming-forum. About ... games and where to buy them. Small and interesting. But I haven't been there for a while.

And of course, this forum. HC. A great place where you can discuss a great game series. Mmm...
