  • What draws people to an online forum anyway?
    Time for me to change my pic. I need Hanover's obsessionYahadreas

    Your obsession is philosophy forums generally, finding time to post at PF1, PF2, and PF temporary. My obsession, though, is dudes who portray themselves as Japanese Anime chicks. At least mine makes sense. You know, best of both worlds.

    Actually, Miss Georgia won. So, in your face everyone other than Georgia!

    I still think we need a worthy constitution - which might mean that it be formed undemocratically to an extent, for example, by overruling absolute majority decisions.Sapientia
    I will write a Constitution for you guys. I'm abreast on the natural rights each of us were endowed by my Creator (not yours, you're godless). I can put something together. One thing I might change is giving Senators 8 year terms instead of 6 and somewhat strengthening the right to bear arms.

    One real question to everyone, is there a way to get a listing of only the threads you've participated in like existed on that other site I used to frequent? I used to use the "My Threads" button, but I can't find one here. I tried to cut and paste theirs over here, but it doesn't work that way.

    I have a "I Miss W" sticker on my car. I have it just to be endearing. Working?
  • Do we really have to have "likes"?
    Time spent collecting Hanover trinkets is time well spent as is time spent talking about ME.
  • What draws people to an online forum anyway?
    Been thinking about this question as well. Possible reason: the third place for the internet age: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_place

    And that also explains my reason for slowly leaving the old place. Something was lost. It's not like the quality suddenly tanked or even the people I was dealing with day to day even changed. It just sort of became uncomfortable and untrustworthy.

    I also have this weird obsession for dudes who potray themselves as Japanese anime chicks.
  • Do we really have to have "likes"?
    The reason to get rid of the likes is because they're irrelevant and we care too much about them, except me. I haven't even noticed I'm in second place behind Jamalrob, who's only winning because he set up this site.

    12 inches.

    And you thought I couldn't bring it down a notch.

    It's hard to say, definitely my kids and grandkids because they are either in the present or in my lifetime, but I'll admit it gets less as you move out in time. It's the same geographically. I care about what happens to me and my neighbors more than those more distant from me, like, Canada, or somewhere stupid like that.
  • The Future of the Human Race
    Sap, how do you quote people like that? Share your wisdom.

    I do care about human beings into the future, the farther out, the less I care. I have kids, you see, and I actually do care what happens to them and my grandkids once I have them. It's understandable that Benkei might care less about the future based upon his avatar that shows him to be a scraggly hippy downing a beer with his kid in his lap. It's hard to care about tomorrow when you've given up on today.

    Carrots,

    In many years from now, only the few here right now will know the origin of the big stupid G next to my name.

    Because technically I'm an idiot. Can you not read?

    I've looked at the breakdown of threads and thought maybe there should be a Hanover room, sort of dedicated to all things Hanover.

    AHHH! Don't answer yet. Take some time to mull it over.

    I just realized that if you hover just to the right of where it says "minutes ago" that the word "reply" will appear. I'll be a master in no time.

    Or we could send them back to PF 1.0.
  • Welcome PF members!
    I may be technologically stupid, so, it may or may not have been impossible to change myself. I couldn't find it, and I thought you'd be excited about the opportunity to serve one of your first guests, so I offered that up for you. I'm always giving.
  • Missing features, bugs, questions about how to do stuff
    I think the more to discuss, the better, so I'm in favor of it.

    I also think you should immediately create an unmoderated section just so people will know that there is a jail, since some heathens here obviously have no fear of hell.

    Jamalrob, site looks great! Thanks for stepping up and doing this.

    How do I change my user name? I want to remove the Gerald (not my name anyway).
