Re: Worst Case Scenarios
I got banned long before TH film was on the horizon- and then shamed them and harassed them with crabbit until they reinstated me!

Very true- but those are your best points!

Re: Worst Case Scenarios
It's well known that TORn is a pro-PJ-leaning forum but they handed down punishments to pro-PJ people who were egregious assholes when I posted regularly there. Granted, you could probably get away with more if you were arguing from a pro-movies position, but they're not trying to eliminate everyone who is critical of the movies.Mrs Figg wrote:ps. I find it really odd that only people critical to PJ get banned from TORn, its very very odd, anyone would think they have a policy of weeding out the people speaking up about the cynical marketing and dumbing down of the franchise, but that couldnt be true could it??
Re: Worst Case Scenarios
Its funny then that the most vociferous anti PJ people are banned on flimsy excuses, they are expert at condescending PMs where they try to rile you up into betraying your temper, I only fell for it because I couldnt be bothered to continue on the forum.

I don't like the structure of that forum itself; it's difficult to navigate.

Re: Worst Case Scenarios
They have pretty strict rules of behavior that makes them a bit of a nanny forum, though to be honest that's really not uncommon. Sometimes I think people don't know how good they have it here. A lot of people think the TORn mods have a pro-PJ bias and are unfair to people who criticize the movies, and based on my experience I have to say there's probably some truth to those complaints. That said, there are a lot of cool people on TORn and plenty of interesting discussions, although as the highest-profile Tolkien forum TORn also attracts a disproportionate share of kids and casual fans who sometimes overwhelm discussions.Recoveryanonymous wrote:So I'm gathering that TORn is a fun place.
Re: Worst Case Scenarios
yeah some of the people are cool, its one of the mods who has fascist tendencies.

Re: Worst Case Scenarios
I was only in TORn for a little while (like five posts, for Merp) and the people who responded were quite nice.
Never actually discussed the movie at all over there though. Or anything else really.
