..well, just me. But in my 30 or so years online, this is certainly the best site for being able to discuss a broad range of topics. And thinking of these topics, but for overt attack type threads, pretty much anything goes (or at least from within the law and site-rules.) And unlike similar sites, Staff doesn't seem to project their own preferences of biases onto content or official policy decisions.
Well done USMB.
Before hyperlinks and drag n drop you have to manually type in URLs.

URLs? What are those? We had Gopher and FTP. When we wanted discussion there were the UseNet Newsgroups. For mindless screaming and bot wars, there was IRC. All accessed from a UNIX shell account. Email was much the same as it is now. It blew my mind at first, that I could talk to anyone in the world for free. That was around 1990, before AOL joined in the internet in 1993 and every month became September (which referred in a derogatory manner to college freshmen joining the internet each year).
Being there was no spam, email was even more useful back then. UseNet, being decentralized and thus under nobody's supervision, had no defense against spam, so it was eventually killed by spam. It's technically still around, but is essentially unusable now. FTP is still there, but Gopher was replaced by the HTTP protocol still in use.
Was blown away musing like "wow, this is another person somewhere else in the world." Eventually got an Apple 2e after the Commodore Vic-20. Whine long enough and parents give in if only to shut ya up

By the way, I have the same problem with typos, at least half my posts have been edited because of them.
You already get to say way more than you should.....try some other forum....you wouldn't last long.
I have tried other forums, have you considered the possibility that your problem isn't me?

I don't have a problem....I usually consider the source when I read your posts....I'm saying you would have a problem.....you aren't civilized.

Not rocket science.

Peaceably assemble seldom includes killing police officers.

USMB has never complied with the 1st Amendment, but thanks for displaying the fact that you don't think before you post.
If I thought before posting I wouldn't need to hit Edit so many times correcting typos.
...In this case I did think first as the mean-spirited reply was self-redacted before hitting Reply.

This place deletes or reclasses many of the my threads because they are truthful in regards to zionism. Many places do not censor posts like they do here.
