The people up top decided about 3-4 years ago that the misc was bringing too much "unwanted attention" to this site, mainly because people on the misc are not scared to tell the truth about supplements being nearly useless (bb.com makes most is revenue from selling sups). Therefore they had two options, either delete the misc completely or just gradually strangle it down to nothing.

Go check all the other parts of bb.com forums, it's full of people swearing by supplements and shining a positive light on that industry, then compare it to the misc and you will see why they want to get rid of this place.

From a business perspective, I don't blame them.


Also, the bad press they get from psycho's like "the supreme gentlemen" and such, but that's another conversation entirely...

Yup them was the good ole days.

Now I come to misc scroll first page, maybe click 1-2 threads then go on somewhere else because I know nothing new will get posted for a while.

Thanks mods, it really is because of all the power hungry ******* mods and childish rules that everybody has left.

I think some of the dedicated trolls like car salesman and console brah have played a part in the misc's slow death.

Everyone has moved on to Reddit where quality posts get pushed to the top and where they can hang out in subs dedicated to topics they specifically enjoy, rather than having to scroll through tons of chitty threads.

Most of the top Misc threads are copied straight from Reddit. Internet forums are dead, boyos. It's amazing that this place still has this many people regularly visiting as is.

Pretty much. Goody story threads get closed fast.

Only thing left is circle jerk threads and fa.

Many subreddits are far funnier and more interesting and unique than the misc. You can't just say "reddit" like it's just one subject.

You can't talk about 'real chit' anymore or you get banned or thread gets closed

This is BB forum

Back in the day AAS discussion was allowed where brahs could share advise with each other
Posting a pic of a hot topless girl was allowed...exposed nipple is now ban/thread close
Discussing anything to do with drugs is now banned/ thread closed etc
If Mods don't like or agree on a subject these days they freely neg/infract ban people

That was the whole point in the 'misc section' you could post what ever and talk about what ever and why it was so fun

Why it gotta bepre2012?

Seriously, aside from all the other reason ITT, it also doesn't help that the Forums link is now buried in the Apps tab. My bish ass computer reset on me one day, and it took me a while to find the forums again.

That really is the whole point of "miscellaneous" on a forum but it's very odd that this website has big rules on what's posted on here even though you're suppose to be allowed to post whatever you want on the miscellaneous part of the forum. Other websites the same subforum but with way less moderation and thread deletes

Yeah, many miscers talk about reddit as if it soley consists of far leftists and feminist subreddits.

There's a ton of different subreddits.

I highly recommend this one, in order to keep on top of technology trends...

Cause too many *******s have ruined it with non-stop anti-women/balding, etc threads as well as high rep powered *******s that neg for anything they disagree with

MISC has become a circle jerk for the same stupid host of opinions that they are too afraid to say out in public or on other social media so they come here to hear their own echos. Used to be all about the lulz, now its politics/anti-women in every thread

Back in the day you could run through the first 3 pages at least and open up so many tabs of threads to read. Good ol days

There's only so much one can take of sloots/balding/Manlet/rotting etc. and just general hate, negativity and pessimism. Misc has become a toxic sh!thole full of pathetic fukwits and most people just can't stand being around that kind of sh!t for long. I used to regularly come on here and open 5-10 threads from the first page that all had good titles/were popular but now I'm lucky to have 3 threads to open and check out because the front page is full of threads about the things I listed above

I know misc has always been full of trolls but they used to be fun and they set out to make everyone laugh. But the trolls here now are just trying to ruin the mentalities and confidence of miscers. Misc has never been more full of insecurity. It's not good

On top of this, the forum layout and function is atrocious. Ask anyone who's tried to use mobile misc. And most people probably browse stuff like misc from their phones these days. The site/company just refuses to update the forum

In agreement. Is it time to put her down?

Misc used to be a forum of enlightenment and entertainment; now it is a pantheon of pussies. They should get rid of all of the sub forums and just move that traffic to the main misc so at least we have chit to look at.
It is not so much the major events as the small day-to-day decisions that map the course of our living. . . Our lives are, in reality, the sum total of our seemingly unimportant decisions and of our capacity to live by those decisions. ― Gordon B. Hinckley
