Is TheColi really that bad??? Site reviews from people online
- Thread starter Leasy
- Start date
For those of us who been here a long time.. a person born when I started posting on SOHH can buy liquor legally now.. this is our comfort zone and has been forever.
We old. We hate wack new music. We love the 90s. We have stupid inside jokes..
This isn't about appealing to a pop audience. This is the beating heart of the internet.
How does someone coming in brand new even begin to understand what we do?

I agree... no one says the barrier to entry into neogaf before they split was a paid email account or college email...
plus that's a crazy form of vetting and keeping people out...
last time they opened registration here it was a shyt show... and there's still sleeper accounts here...

Yes this site is that fukking bad. It’s mainly just TLR tho (because TLR is very obviously a Psyop and the mods won’t do anything to address it)
Coliseum and HL are solid as hell

Most online forums have bad reviews since 99% of forums tend to be bias.
Lipstickalley and city data don’t have that much good opinions either.
For city data it’s the mods that give the site a poor rep.

A dusty forum that's aging out of relevancy
It feels like the average user on this site is 36 years old. I've never seen a forum where people were so apprehensive and insecure towards anything that was outside of their echo chamber. Anything that's new and popping in music is not even discussed. Some of the worst and most proudly uniformed musical takes I have ever read in my life are on this site. And for a userbase that pretends to know so much more about music outside of rap and RNB, the lounge is one of the deadest sub forums on the site with threads from months ago on its front page. Has no awareness of any music of culture outside of hip-hop or R&B. Which is insane. Lots of dusty old heads on this forum that pride themselves on not using social media. If you're under the age of 30..just don't even bother. It's not like you can even register for the forum anyways and the attitude of the userbase shows they are hostile towards newcomers. The dumbest topics are discussed meanwhile anything of any value barely goes two pages. The hip-hop forum is still discussing artists and music from 10,15, 20, 25, 30 years ago. Anything that is not wrapped up in this fake militant schtick from insecure posters too scared to go outside of their comfort zones is immediately regarded as "white people stuff". Which is really insulting to many Black people who enjoy those things. The user base of this forum is just waaaaaaaaay too old on average to be so ignorant. Has a shocking disrespect towards art and artists, which would most definitely turn away many talented Black artists from even wanting to promote their art there. This place used to be kind of cool for some opinions outside of the norm but now it's not even good for that because it's just gotten so redundant and the conversation has became so circular it's not even worth logging in anymore.

Sorry Ghost is right

Kind of disappointed that you left out how anti black and racist that site is. You mentioned it in fact once i believe in the past.
But that site is racist as fukk. shyt is embarrassing. The level of stupidity and ignorance that was allowed there made me stop going there altogether. Dont care to even view it.

As opposed to the rest of them?
Incidentally while admittedly being racist like any other site on the internet, i dont think ive seen too many sites that are simultaneously more outspoken against their site's racism. What are the odds huh?
You’re romanticizing this place
Most posters here, including me, come here out of habit but this site is nothing more than reacting to things posting on social media just like what everyone else on Social media is doing when they’re not interacting with people on SM they know
Without motivated owners to give this site direction, TLR has just become another incel, ragebaiting section of the internet

People getting mad about criticisms hurled toward their precious forums and e-communities will never not be hilarious 
There was nothing dishonest stated in the quoted text posted by @Rob Vincent yet nikkas already getting aggy at whoever wrote that.
Y'all criticize gang-bangers for waging war for city blocks they don't own, then turn around and engage in the same tribalistic BS for an online space y'all don't own. Got dudes here who claim to "lurk" on Lipstick Alley just so they can report their findings here, and for what? Like y'all some military branch out on an espionage and reconnaissance mission.
Your safe space got criticized for being a haven for goofies. Which it is. Well boo-fukking-hoo and whoop-dee-damn-doo for anyone catching feelings.

Let’s just say it could be better than it is
Here's what's skewing my view.
Old school SOHH was totally bonkers.
The worst of the worst at times. JBO was a literal hate crime in those days. Over 90% of the traffic was not Hip Hop. It was maniacs from all over the web coming to JBO for porn and gore. It was literally unmoderated.
SOHH if there's weirdos here now, they are little cute puppies compared to the history of these boards.
And I welcome the fukcery. I do not get offended by shyt posters. I chuckle at them.

If we're being honest. I mean really honest. Some of those criticisms are fair.

Mentioned before that doing this:
That and create a new subforum for TLR called Know the Ledge where we can do just that in a Bird Babble free environment and it would be beautiful.
- Charge a fee for new members (non refundable if they don't act right)
- Give them reply only privileges till they're dapped enough to post threads
