Well, I do. I feel like I'm too flamboyant and fangirly for Apricity and Anthroscape, and too slow for Forumbiodiversity.

I feel out of place in USA because of my tastes and personality.

No, I'm one of the invasive species known as a WASP. I thrive anywhere.

technically, Mexicans are the same way, but I'm an outlier.

I have judged the Apricity to be welcoming and positive, as far as the governing of the site goes. It's up to you to make yourself known around us other anthroheads. If you've got shortcomings, somebody will let you know about them... And finally, relax man, it's the internet: welcome to the jungle.

Wow. This thread underscores the psychological intensity that the anthro-forum has on one.:)

Intriguing.

I might like to re-phrase this in a way that I'm sure you'd be agreeable with: This thread underscores the psychological intensity that ETHNICITY AND "HOME" have on one.

I've noticed a particular trend among some younger male posters toward flamboyant effeminacy and its accompanying interests...you, arberori, acevicory etc

Despite not being too flamboyant on Forumbiodiversity, I still managed to get made fun of there. I'm too ditzy for Forumbiodiversity, I guess? And apparently, I ask the same questions there all the time. (But really, it's just that I make thread spinoffs of posts I make if the aforementioned posts don't get replies).

No it's mostly based on my liberal/non-racist attitude which yes makes you feel a fish out of the water. I have never seen so many racists, except in Anthroforums. Quite disappointing truth be told.

I couldn't take anthroscape seriously so I attacked crimson guard a lot. My warning level there is 75%. It was a very confrontational forum with a lot of misinformation and still is to some extent. Forumbiodiversity doesn't appeal to me much but it is closest to the old forum biodiversityforum.com which I used to admin and didn't like the direction it was heading (which is why I don't post on forumbiodiversity). Apricity is my favorite overall.

Yups...people are blatantly racist, but nothing wrong with that these days. LOL. Specially the youngsters. Arm chair + keyboard: does that. I am part of the gamut too. So not pointing fingers at anyone. But it is hilarious to read stuff like: I hate xxxx people, burn them all down. Ideology and mindset observation(s) on race boards is amazing and almost "rich". It is funnier when someone is cross questioned, then the hit-back, rebuttal is quite harsh and warped. ABF,ASC, and TA (alphabetical) are different in approach and angle, and champion factors individually as well as collectively. ABF is more genetics driven and traffic is low after the mega-hack; ASC is quite open world, but a shit-load of pseudo-science is going around there, TA is quite Euro-centric (for obvious reasons), but unwelcoming at times, but transactions here are really really high. Immense traffic.

Never posted on AS. I've never heard anything good about the Sicilians there.

Didn't feel at home on Stormfront.
Liked ABF for a year or so, then after all of the posters I like left/got banned, I felt out of place.

Why did you go to Stormfront anyway?

I've always been anti-establishment and anti-censorship. I liked that they were the badass rebels who stuck their middle finger up at political correctness. I liked that the powerful wanted to shut them down, and they defiantly kept going. I expected them to be a political forum.

Instead, they're whiny bitches who are ignorant to facts and live in a dream world where all Europeans and whites discard their identities and care only about brotherhood. They endorse a bogus religious philosophy called Positive Christianity which preaches that Jesus was not in fact a Jew, but rather someone who hated Jews.

I was hoping to discuss fascism, corporatism, etc... and instead it was all 14/88 racialist bullshit. I had no interest in that, so I left with about a dozen posts.

I registered on Anthroscape but found too few intetresting discussions. So, I'm inactive there.
I don't post much on ABF but rather follow some dscussions instead.

Ok, I registered once more on Anthroscape because I forgot my password and the e-mail related to that account was lost. I mentioned that but I got banned anyway and I'm not able to recover the old account. Awww.

Yeah, that was silly. I didn't intend to use both accounts, so it's kinda funny I was treated so harshly. Such behaviour won't attract new members that's for sure.
