Every thread goes way off topic by the 2nd page. Usually by the 3rd page there are personal squabbles going back and forth and it's tough to even figure out what the actual topic of the thread was about.
Another bitch of mine are the posters that reply with stupid overused memes. And It's frustrating to hear the same lame comments...pot needles,bag of dicks,ballsof steel,etc. What brings me back is the intelligent answers and thoughtful funny replies. Keep the junior high schoolers off here and we'd be golden. |

Gun owners, collectors and dirt shooters that talk with authority about a particular gun when they have zero personal experience or enough experience to talk the way that they do. 99.87% of the shit here is regurgitated garbage.
As someone already said, if you pay attention, you can tell who knows what they're talking about. The signal to noise ratio here is very high. With that being said, this place is very entertaining and is great for news since I don't watch it. You have to be careful though because this place is a huge echo chamber. |

So many on here are driven to "fit in" by repeating terms they think everyone else will find cool. The history is long...
87 Rick Roll SIIHPAPP Midcap And members can't post much of anything without someone coming along and trying to roast you for an obscure thing they don't like about your post. Basically, 20% of jerks here are making 80% (or more) of the shitty posts. Why do I come back? Because there are a few quality posts here now and then worth reading. |

LOL here's a perfect example: https://www.ar15.com/forums/General/SCAM-ALET-beware-buying-incendiary-devices-on-Amazon-this-shopping-season/5-2607818/
One guy goes to the trouble to give us a heads up on an online scam. Another guy shits all over the first guy because he does a common satiric misspelling of the word ALERT. |

For better and for worse, boomer/gen-x info and experience. Some of you are quite knowledgeable for technical stuff, but boy y'all go full retard on other things.

This is EASILY the most negative, bitter place I’ve ever posted. Maybe I’m just sheltered.
But it’s also refreshingly free of wokeism. The two are connected. |

I'm not bothered by arfcom GD.
I joined in 2020. It was like the wild west with more free speech back then, and I loved it. I come back because I enjoy the posts. |

Watching the "War of Northern Aggression" people argue every week still fighting the Civil War, arguing over an imaginary line from over 157 years ago like it somehow matters and effects thier lives in every way......
And then get all pissed when the media or someone mentions "Reparations" from that same period. Also the people who trash cross dressers and trans people, but fall all over each other discussing their favorite brand of kilts they wear. I love this place. |

What bothers me? The people.
What brings me back? The people. |

Dislike edgelords.
Enjoy seeing one schooled. It's been posted but having the membership we have allows for a faster paced forum. |

I came here for interesting, intelligent and stimulating conversation with like minded people.
I was disappointed. The lols, conspiracy theories and high speed, low drag load outs needed for desperate suburban gunfights keep me coming back. |

The hypocrisy
It's fairly rampant, and it's like a train wreck. It's awful, yet I can't look away. |

I'm only here for the Morgan Freeman "he's right" meme in every thread.

What bothers me is this entire experience is a massive data collection op. Yet, it's a fun op, and my data is corrupted.

Quoted: So it's underlying racism to point out that the majority of crime is perpetrated by minorities. Maybe you ought to check the FBI crime stats by race might be a real eye-opener for you View Quote @Dale007 |

Haha!
OP thinks there is racism in GD. Understanding the reality around you isn’t racism. It is just fact. |

Quoted: There is a not so subtle vein of racism that appears here regularly, usually keeping to the cover of the Karnac Klan and the CoC; and the usual tribe acceptance of other broad brush "truisms" whether they be about some "class" distinction regarding vocation, age, education, etc . Lots of BS I don't measure worth the response. OTOH, I regularly garner news ahead of the news here, and there are, betwixt and between the gargoyles, astute, and occasionally, succinct observations about our lives whose equal I see nowhere else.

You can't be serious when you say the Civil war had no affect on present times. Kilts aren't worn by troons. |

Nothing about it bothers me.
Since becoming a weightlifting racist, life is awesome |

I hate the dooming.
I enjoy the banter. It’s a nice break from my super woke job. |

Quoted: I agree with you, OP, what really gets me pissed here is the occasional veiled racism. I don't give a god damn if you're white, black, red or yellow, I just want you to be pro-freedom. Another thing is the trolling, but alas, such comes with the territory of the internet. If you want to see what keeps me coming back here, you can see it in this very thread. Arfcom is fun and we can all either have a laugh in GD or talk about guns in the tech subforums. Arfcom is one of the last few places on the internet where you can actually experience camaraderie and friendship. Y'all motherfuckers are interesting people.

Quoted: There was a time that so many people posted here in GD that it was difficult to keep up with what was on page 1. It was like a huge chat room and topics could make it to the bottom of the first page in probably 2 minutes. Other forums are slow and take days for replies, even in their version of GD. View Quote fuckin right on that. Arfcom has ruined all other forums because replies are so damn slow elsewhere. |

I'm sometimes a little miffed that posters who accuse specific other posters of derailing and shitting up a thread, don't seem to understand they themselves do exactly that because they can't not respond. They're more disruptive than the person they're calling out 100% of the time. It doesn't keep me up at night, but WTF guys.
The reason I come back is breaking news is best here as long as you can filter out the knee jerk posts. Also some of you are funny as all fuck. |
