favorite:

• Sandbox for seeing how people's political views evolve.
• Flirting.
• Stimulating discussions on occasion (seems to come and go in waves)
• A space for extreme goofiness.
• Relative scarcity of obnoxious edge-lords.
• Relative scarcity of conspiracy theory dipshittery (these days, anyway).
• The ability to have different opinions about works of pop culture.
• People who put up with my dumb jokes, instead of insisting that we all treat all of our interactions like they have to always be SERIOUS AND DEEP.
  

least favorite:

• Drama.
• Crazy ENTJs pouncing on people who disagree with them about the slightest thing.
• The occasional member that pops up and seems like something out of an Investigation Discovery show.
• Incompetent "forum revolutions" and other bullshit cryptic intrigue that occasionally pops up.

Wait. I thought all our discussions were always serious and deep. You mean I'm NOT starring in a movie, playing a park ranger, opposite Nicolas Cage? You wound me, Julius! You wound me!!!!!

The National Ocarina Council has threatened to sue me if I move forward, so the project is stalled for now, I'm afraid. They're afraid of the effect on ocarina sales that would result if Ocarinas: Instrument of Satan ever gets made. They said I could change it to another instrument like a trumpet or kazoo, but what would I be without artistic integrity?

I like that it has a cute family-friendly juvenile sort of feel to it, but it's not where I'd go for interesting or challenging discussions. Member base can also seem very strange/angry.

Likes: They let me talk about why Hooper was the real villain of Jaws and they indulge my childish need for attention.

Dislikes: The forum feels kind of quiet at the moment. It's also a bit of a time sink for me, but that's not the forum's fault, it's mine for being bad at time management.

Dupes

Do you like dupes, dislike dupes or are you implying that I'm a dupe?

I'm also getting a strange/angry vibe at times

Do you think that might be somewhat natural, given the nature of this as a personality typology forum? I'm assuming a lot of people here are in some form or other identity seekers (myself included) and so with that is going to come a lot of confusion, self doubt, and sometimes anger, likely stemming from people coming from a place of viewing themselves as isolated or different from the rest of the human race. On the flip though, I think that means a lot of these people will have some great, unique insights into human nature and personality.

+’s

*A few interesting characters
*Lack of heavy traffic (could use a bit more activity)
*Lack of a borg collective picking apart my every word. Others may argue that point but I’ve been on a couple of forums and one definitely had a thought police faction.

-‘s

*Pseudo intellectuals haughtily tearing apart others for asking questions about the subject of typology (and we wonder why we can’t retain members) There are ill informed people posting erroneous information no doubt. Those people are in need of correction, but I’m referring to times people have just shown curiosity because they’re learning and they’re met with a fair level of contempt for being uninformed about the subject.
*The continuing lack of a functioning post history search
*The inability for threads I find truly interesting to survive two pages (nothing to be done here really as it’s a personality forum and not geared towards some of the specific subjects these threads focus on)

Man...and I thought I was optimistic!

I do think the angry aspect is natural in so far as this is the Internet, and as we all know the internet brings out the best in everyone.

I apologize on behalf of all adult ENTJ’s everywhere. It’s an irritation of mine as well.

I think I’m in an exceptionally optimistic mood today

No, you will not. But an ESFJ might try that nonsense.
