I agree with your analysis, Phlexor. That's the way that I see Intensity as well.
I think that it's impossible to make Intensity a safe haven for all those people who have been rejected by other fora, simultaneously.
I'm not convinced of this yet. Probably it's impossible for all people, but I say it's possible for more people than most others think.
This think this place is only a safe haven for people who feel they have to speak their mind and have trouble keeping their mouth shut in other forums where its a rule.
(not that I'm talking about myself or anything, am I Ozy)
Comparing this place to AI is like comparing Apples and Oranges. AI is a support forum with some leeway for "spirited" debate. I just follow the guidelines set by Crucibelle.
Yeah, but there were a few nut jobs there that were starting to drive me crazy. And I think that's what you get when those sort of people are protected. But each place has its use and I feel more uselful here, if that says anything.
It makes sense, more than a few people drove me crazy over there.
And that was before I became Admin.
And I'm much more guarded there then I am here or on Morthaur's forum or The Drivel. AI is basically dead and unlikely to ever revive, it's more or less a "read only" forum in every sense of the word except in fact. Too much shit has happened there.
