Do you think it's bad to spend too much time on the internet? Why or why not?

With AI the price of RAM has skyrocketed these past few years. RAM is now the most expensive component when it comes to computers, and because RAM prices continue to go up game consoles are now more expensive than they were when they first released six years ago. This generation of games is the only one where game consoles have gone up in price as time goes on because in the past the parts to make the consoles would go down in price. I hope one day RAM prices will get better, I don’t think it will be any time soon. Or do you think that RAM will continue to go up in price as AI improves?

Vibe coded software is software coded by AI, and I’ve noticed that there’s been a number of server software as well as forum software and themes being created by AI as of late. Would you use vibe coded software to power your community or do you not trust software completely created by AI? Personally I am all for people using AI to help them with a few tasks, but I don’t think I would trust vibe coded software to power my community. I’m afraid there would be too many bugs or vulnerabilities and the dev might not have the knowledge to fix the problems.

Hi, Everybody.

I’m glad to be here. Its great to join. I am already excited & can’t wait to share & experience life on this forum.

I started creating forums in mid 2024, and I always remember the very first forum I created. It was a general chat forum, and the only thing I can not remember is the name of the forum I chose, but I remember it being something with central at the end of it.

That forum never really took off, as I was new to running forums back then.

Do you remember the first forum you created?

Blogging Node

A forum dedicated to discussion the creation, marketing, and profiting from blogs.

Hello everyone! How are you?

A little bit about me….I enjoy reading (a lot), spending time with my cat, watching movies, playing video games, and working on the internet. If you want to know more about me, just ask. Otherwise, I’ll see you around.

If you were offered 50% on top of what you are already making, but you have to work at night only, would you take this opportunity?

Personally, I wouldn't trade my sleep for a 50% increase in salary. My health and peace are more important to me. The extra money won't make up for them.

What is your favorite app that you use on your smart phone? Why is that your favorite? How often do you use it?

I started my journey as a webmaster when I was a teenager at the age of 14. I've managed and ran a few different websites since those early days. I have now been a webmaster for 22 years now. I see myself contining my career as a webmaster for many, many, more years.

What about you? How long have you been a webmaster?

I love being on the Net and creating posts on sites that pay. Do welcome me

Over the years, I had so many different ideas for forums, but then I would overthink them and then would be scared to start them, believing they would flop.

This past year, though, I decided to move my BTS blog from WordPress to Xenforo and kept adding news to the site, but I also created a forum. So far, as much as I am creating content daily, I haven't gotten any members, but I do get hits, and traffic is increasing, but this forum is under a niche that may not be overly popular, as many of the BTS community tend to use social media over forums now.

Was I scared to move to Xenforo and create a BTS forum as well? Of course, but being a huge fan of BTS, it is something I am enjoying.

Have you ever had an idea for a forum but been too scared to start it?

Have you ever come across Forum Spark? What are your thoughts? I think it's the greatest free forum software and love using it,

Helloooo 👋💕

Gizmo has informed me that I should post an introduction, and after approximately ten minutes of figuring out HOW to actually do that... I MADE IT 🤣 I’m JustASmallTownGirl 🎶 I’m from the North East of England and work in a primary school, which basically means my working day consists of little humans, lots of laughs and varying levels of organised chaos 😂 Outside of work I love music (pretty much anything I can sing badly to!! 🎶), musical theatre, cooking, the gym, walking my pooch, paddle boarding and getting out on random little adventures ♡ Chill Chat is my usual little corner of the internet, but Gizmo has been incredibly kind helping promote us over here... and has since started dangling arcades and chat rooms in front of me 😂 So apparently I have a second internet home developing lol.

Anywoooo… that's probably enough rambling from me 😂 Looking forward to getting to know everyone! 🥰💕 And if you see me completely lost somewhere around Spark... just point me in the right direction please thank you ♡JustASmallTownGirl♡

Hi, everyone

My friend told me about this community a couple of days ago, and it is a thing of joy that I finally got to sign up here.

I've scanned through the section and must commend the admins for a great work that they've done building this community. The topics that I've seen were quite interesting, and I look forward to contributing my quota here.

Aside from visiting and writing on forums, I also enjoy playing video games, reading books and can also play table tennis 🏓 when my friends are around.

I am happy to be here and can’t wait to get started

When it comes to how much time I spend on the internet, I would say it is anything from 6 - 8 hours a day, sometimes more if I have more to do.

How much time would you say you spend on the internet per day? Would you say it is too much, too little, or just enough for you?

I realize in the year of 2026, most people probably use their Smart Phones to work and surf (aka goof off), but I'm old school. I still prefer sitting down in my comfy gaming chair on my desktop PC with my multiple monitors (that I don't use most of the time...)

I find that it's much easier for me to creatively write using my full sized keyboard than it is to use my phone, even with Speech to Text technology. The words just don't flow on to the page when I'm not using my keyboard. Anwyay, what tech do you prefer to use?

Is technology burning you out? Do you feel it draining you on a daily basis?

Should you recline your seat on an airplane?

I've been reading a story today about a person who got aggressive because someone dared to recline their seat on the plane. Thoughts?

As much as most internet browsers are pretty great and they have some amazing features, you also get those browsers that, even though you have tried them, you would much rather avoid them than use them again.

What internet browser will you always avoid, no matter what?

Should technology have limits?

I have seen many childhood movies that has aged badly. Their special effects look like rubbish, the jokes are dry and the storylines do not even follow anymore. But some classics still stand strong like "The Lion King" . It still make people cry and "Home Alone" . It is still very funny. So, tell us your childhood movie that still holds up today.

I personally use Notepad when I'm writing new things, but what writing apps do you tend to use when you're writing new things and crafting your words? What are your personal favorites?

What are some your favorite foods? What type of foods do you like to indulge in? How often do you tend to eat your favorite foods?

I personally love Mexican food, Chicken Alfredo, Lasagna, and Baked Mac n Cheese. These foods have been my favorite for the longest.

I also love Chinese food, but not as much as Mexican food.

What about you? What are your favorite foods?

I have try different options like phpBB for free but my forum look like it was designed in the dial-up era, and the mobile experience is like a torture. Then, also you have XenForo that is so beautiful but the license fee is something else, very expensive. What do you recommend?
