Other forums in general.
Singletrackworld has this annoying habit of having xxxTrackworld as thread titles, e.g. "Caravantrackworld" for caravan chat, which implies they think the forum is dedicated the singles.
Bikeradar (I used to be prolific in the MBUK days) go to their M&M equiv and it is entirely daily posts of "Its monday, grease your bung holes" "Tuesday is my Boozeday" etc, it is only dreck, no substance.
I rarely venture out of lufgus now, the indoctorination is complete.
DethBeard-
I kinda wondered if it was just that I am so spoiled from using lfgss for so long.
I've dabbled in other forums of course but really just motorcycle stuff - for mechanical advice on whatever bike I had at the time so would not be engaging in any 'social' aspects - and photography - for the classifieds really. You do not want to be engaging with people on photography forums!

Why do I keep going on it as if there’s going to be anything worth looking at?
The readers bikes bits and singlespeed thread in particular are chock full of anti-porn and cringe inducing thread titles like “Prefer a fuller figure... Trek Farley 5 content”. Always with that “type of bike content” and it’s never an interesting type of bike either!
When mechanical advice is posted it’s generally woefully incorrect.
Classifieds threads bereft of photos. Just long lists of like, 20+ items that you’d have to read through and then because no one can be bothered to do that there’s just constant bumping of threads. There was one thread I found a while ago that was one post of stuff then honestly like 15 pages or something of “bump”, “up” and “to the top”. There was like max 2 days between bumping posts. Think of the effort!
They also allow openly requesting payment by PayPal gift in classified threads but frown upon calling out over pricing or even anything “off topic” like correcting mis-advertised items.
