Title: Icecream on Mars
Post by: -gg- on February 19, 2022, 12:47:38 PM
Hey guys

I wanted to invite you to my "other" forum, https://icecreamonmars.com/ (https://icecreamonmars.com/)

There are probably a lot of you that remember my FW forum. Maybe 900 AH'ers had joined that one going back to 2008. It's still around, but I left it as a member. I just admin that one

ICOM  - icecreamonmars, is meant to be more of a friendly place. Several former and current AH players are there, but it's not the zoo that FW is.
We mostly talk about games, videos, current events - whatever.

Still no moderation, to a point. It's not a FW type of place. You can say pretty much whatever you have to say, but I won't allow people to be bullied or harassed.

Hope to see you guys!

I wanted to add that I know a lot of you still and I miss you guys. There are no hard feelings for anyone, and I really like you guys. Even ones I gave a hard time to.

All are very welcome. I'd love to see you guys.

Who'd you give a hard time to? This might be a bonding moment.  :old:

Well, not too many I don't think. The FW was not for the weak of heart though. No moderation and only one person banned in about 13 years (now two)

The hard time part came as a member - not as a typical moderator using moderator powers to mess with people. Just basic back and forth fighting that turned sour at times, I'd say

I left FW years ago. Got tired of the BS and after I found myself wanting to block more than a couple folks there due to their behavior, figured out I just did not need the hassle and left. No drama. I didn't post the "I am leaving and you all suck" notice. I just stopped showing up and deleted the "favorite" link in my browser.

Hi Maverick!

I'm so glad you stopped over. I replied to that thread of yours.

How have you been? Are you still living the RV life?
Title: Re: Icecream on Mars

Nope settled in the TX Hill Country. The wife wanted to come back to where she grew up. We parked the RV in 17.

From the main page, just click on Forum. That's where all the threads are at.

You can upload pics, change your avatar and make your own title.

Most videos, like YouTube, will automatically embed. SoundCloud too. It's pretty easy to do stuff. Some stuff might be a little non I tuitivr. It is German software. Lol

But I can help if you have any questions .

The more the merrier. Just keep things friendly and you can really post anything you like

Bluemoon is a beer.

Pale Moon is a browser. 

Using both would be my guess.

actually I have always called it bluemoon. I actually had to look it up since I installed it many years ago.  blue moon beer I only drink it when my youngest kid comes over.

but you are right, it's pale moon.  wonder if it's regular palemoon or indianpalemoon.

Pale Moon has been around quite a long time. I have it on a couple computers and use it still fairly often. Iirc it was an offshoot of Mozilla/Firefox or another small company in the beginning, don’t keep up with that stuff as I don’t work in IT/CIS anymore.

Great alternative to Chrome and others that put lots of junk on your computer…

Pale Moon was developed by a nudist colony of geeks.

This is rich.  From what you hear?  You are the main a hole there.  Can you actually point to a single post you made in the last month that was actually constructive?  You and I both know the answer is no.  Every single post is just trash grade trolling.

ICOM will welcome anyone but we are looking for people who want to contribute. If you come over to be everyone's pain in the ass, just save yourself the trouble and don't join.
Title: Re: Icecream on Mars
Post by: Arlo on March 30, 2022, 09:05:10 PM
I did come to understand that 'contribute' meant posting what you liked or agreed with. It did not include anything you didn't like or disagreed with, whether that be a critique of what you posted, of you, yourself,  the venom with which you posted it or an original post from me which came from a source you detested. If something was posted that you didn't like or agreed with, one was expected to defend their post with meticulous effort to your satisfaction and if you weren't satisfied one was expected to accept your response of 'well, you're an idiot.' Rinse, repeat ad nauseum. In other words, your forum, in which you gleefully invited me and others to participate, was pretty much what I expected it would be. In essence, a political boy's club (even if you're no longer a boy) and a troll trap for 'others.' And, of course, it's all my fault ... somehow.  :D

But we both knew that. I enjoyed it for what it was. In the end you and others could not take what was dished back. *ShruG*

So, that's about as clear of a clearing of the air as there could be (and I wasn't even intending such). I think just leaving it be (my amusement - your chagrin) should suffice. Like I said, and I am sincere, may ICOM fulfill your every need or desire for it. :)

Nah. Literally all yours and them post about is TDS BS. Like I have daily engagements with my leftest rival and it's all TDS. It's just F ing pathetic after 8 years. Like all you can talk about is one 4 year Pres... for real everyone tired of it.

Well, they are the same crowd that watch Colbert and after well over a year his show is still mostly TDS filth.

Typically winners celebrate for awhile amongst THEMSELVES and move on and get back to business. Of course that requires having class…

You guys can come and see for yourselves. I like people and your views don't even factor into that for me.

ICOM is not FW. You can come express anything you'd like, but if all you do is spam and try to irritate people you won't be tolerated for very long. Especially when you start blatantly calling people extremists for no other reason than posting an article about Ukraine causality counts

That was pretty much the last straw for me.

I posted an article from Newsmax ( which was from the AP) and Arlo jumped in as the first post in that thread simply to call me a right wing extremist, because I linked to a newsmax article. He then continued to derail the thread, telling me that I was not willing to "meet halfway and discuss"  I mean, seriously. He came into my thread, called me an extremist and then wanted me to meet him halfway to discuss it.

So that was a warning for Arlo. If you accuse someone of something, you better back it up. He went on and on about what was expected of him.... just strawman BS. 

I got sick of it.

I don't have to put up with it and our members don't deserve it either.

I'm there to have discussions, meet people and have fun. That's it. If you come over and all you do is crap on everything, then eventually you will be gone.

I don't care if we only have 5 people. We don't need BS.

From what I hear ICOM is just a bit, not by much tho, abusive than FW. One has to be a Trump toe licker and arse licker on both boards.

BTW, I didn't think tranys had menstrual cycles. It must be a really bad month this time. :)
