Greetings fellow AKBers. It’s been a while since I posted here but figured I can get this in before we all start comparing about timeouts. Anyway, I was trying to remember what we used to refer to the old site test board as, and am thinking "cesspool," but not sure.

A) Was/is it cesspool?
B) Anyone dare visit it in the past year or so?

You had your trolls there some who gravitated here and the free for all board.

2 or 3 of them post emojis mostly. See the Pony League World Series thread here for one of the biggest trolls.

I’m not a tech guy and have no idea how the economics of a message board work. Maybe if a given site needs the traffic, the mods would let a board like that exist. If that’s the case, I’m glad our mods felt it wasn’t worth the grief.

@TomMcAndrew is a gazillioniare not only because he started the Test Board, but he also brilliantly retained advertising royalty rights to same after the On3 buyout.

Now you all know why he can take those frequent and expensive vacations.

HR has an off-topic board. You might want to start with the "Gallon Jugs" thread.

You can thank me later.
