    Is it constructive and in good faith? I can probably handle it decently. Is it downright hateful and degrading? I would probably be fuming.
  2. If I remember correctly, I started with myself and one other staff member, but I've been flying solo for years and I feel like I don't necessarily need any other staff members since I know how to do all that is required for my board's niche and I remain active.
  3. Many sections of my forum need editing to be enabled at all times so users can fix/update their codes when needed since I run a resource board. However, I still allow the editing of all posts at all times. People could drop spam advertisements or inappropriate content in edited posts, but I try to keep a keen eye open for that.
  4. I've never used real currency to buy posts. I've always primarily depended on content bundles and post exchanges to build the content of my board.

    I only use Quora when searching on Google and find results that match my query. I use Reddit almost daily for browsing purposes, reading topics of interest, and finding interesting questions that people post in "ask" subreddits.
  6. PayPal is the only means of receiving payment I've ever used. I generally don't accept payment via PayPal anymore due to people being able to file chargebacks as it has been done to me in the past. I mainly use PayPal for eBay payments. I don't necessarily do much/any paid work anyway, most of my work is done freely for those who need me to share my wealth of knowledge.

    I rarely watch movies these days and mostly watch them in theaters or when a new, desirable film is released on one of our streaming services.
  8. Social media does seem like a good place to promote your site if you do so constructively and not shamefully. However, I've never used social media to promote my site because I've always depended on signature advertising, search engines, word of mouth, and advertisements posted on forums of a similar genre. I'm just not very fond of social media for the most part and find it too cumbersome.
  9. Great article and resource. Most resources found on freeCodeCamp are amazing. They have a wide variety of documentation and articles that help you learn the ins and outs of coding. I've used many of these methods before for manipulating the DOM, but I use jQuery most of all since that's what's installed on the forum software I support. I've created plenty of Vanilla JavaScript codes that use these methods too.
  10. I think the only show I've ever used Tubi for was Yu-Gi-Oh. I don't remember watching any films on there or any other shows. I can watch Yu-Gi-Oh on Crunchyroll now that we have that service.
  11. I don't think I'll ever have a girlfriend no less children. Relationships don't fascinate me as they do many others. I used to be highly interested in building a relationship with someone one day, but that has fallen to the wayside due to multiple failed attempts and the fact that I don't feel I'm relationship-material. Back on the subject of children, I don't want them. I feel as if I would pass my bad genes on to them and that's a recipe for disaster, at least in their youth. I feel as if I would have a lot of anxiety about my children's present and future, and I don't have the finances to have children.
  12. It can be very gratifying knowing you're using your knowledge to help others. Helping others gives a great feeling of accomplishment that you're doing good for the betterment of others.
  13. You're not wrong, that's for sure! I'm sure I could learn a lot more if I applied myself, but right now I'm just happy helping fellow webmasters with my current experience.

    Hey there, [mention=3]Shortie[/mention]! Welcome to the forum, I'm glad to see an active, contributing member to many communities on board!
  15. I think I used to try my hand at Facebook games when I was actively using it. The only social media I use these days is Reddit and that's for browsing purposes only. The only means I have of playing video games is on my iPhone.
  16. Running a resource board, my motive is to provide for those with less knowledge than me by using my knowledge to do so.
  17. Is anyone ready for season 2 this upcoming Sunday?
  18. That's true, though I've never had much use for such frameworks/libraries due to my primary means of coding being on free non-self-hosted message board services. Don't get me wrong, a front-end developer career would be awesome, but there's just so much to learn and a fast-paced market that keeps changing and growing.
  19. Good point, it takes a lot of dedication and expertise to excel at something, and the more you do it, you'll usually excel to an even greater extent.

    I haven't read many books during my lifetime, but The Lord of the Rings remains my favorite book and film of all time.

    I sleep about 6+ hours a night normally, but I usually take a nap or two during the daytime, particularly on days I work. I try to nap every Thursday during the daytime because that's the night I go overnight once a week.
  22. I check my forum consistently via mobile when in public and via desktop at home. I probably spend around 3+ hours checking and engaging on my board throughout the day.
  23. I don't do post-exchanges a whole lot, at least I generally don't go searching for them. I'll usually create a post-exchange thread on some forums and let people come to me. I don't often request post-exchanges from other users unless their board looks interesting to me.
  24. Exactly, I wouldn't have spent that much out of my wallet. I generally spend no more than $35 on video games. I wait for them to go on sale.
  25. I spent $60 (I think) on Modern Warfare II when it first came out, primarily because I had a $50 gift card. I probably wouldn't have spent that much otherwise.
