Clever.. I and a friend wanted to investigate my ban so we came up with an idea, we each would make an account on a proxy and post my artwork(which was proven as credited) and wait for the mods or admin to react. Surely enough, they did and banned the account permanently, and my suspicions were confirmed. Now we have the last laugh, never trust that site ever.
Since I can access the Equestrian Dreamers forum again... I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tempted to make another account and make a post telling them all off. Obviously I'd get perma-banned again... but... I'm pretty sure most of them wanted me to die during my surgery. So... yeah... I want to tell them off. But I haven't yet because I feel like it would just be a waste of time. Meh.
Honestly... Equestrian Dreamers is a dead forum now. So I kind of consider that karma for what happened to me.
I get you and it's funny because I'm also writing fanfiction to release some issues that I've been thinking a lot lately, about certain life circumstances and some observations of mine. When it's more stressful than fun, I too leave and don't feel like participating anymore. I am more active in the MLP subreddit and the MLPLounge subreddit. They're the ones that are most accepting, in my humble opinion. Anyway, I hope you're not friendless in real life. In any case, I send you a hug and best vibes. wuuuu, wuuu, wuuuu, (that's the sound of the vibes).
I've been a member of one forum since early 2013, and I've really liked it for the most part. Lately, however, it's been going downhill. Most of the new members turn out to be spambots, a lot of active members have left, and even the site owner rarely shows up anymore. I'm starting to worry that it might end up folding like so many others.
Funnily enough, I think I'm a part of that same forum. With a stroke of luck, we'll have a resurgence in popularity, but it sounds like wishful thinking.
If we're talking about where I think we're talking about only time will tell. Some places still squeak by with even less activity.
I've considered offering to buy the site a few times, but the appraisals of the site's value range from under $100 to over $11,000.
i feel like you just lowkey roasted the site. *sigh* i've had some... interesting... experiences with other forums...
Well you would be paying for the site so that would factor in the costs of the Software itself which is $140 then the premium theme which is $40 then lets just say the community/Site value itself is $200 that would come to $380 I would never sell a site for that.
