Subcommunities on Beehaw:
This community's icon was made by Aaron Schneider, under the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.
When I first heard about it I was in high school, and even though $10 is nothing for the return in value, I had never paid for anything online at that point and was apprehensive about it.
GameFAQs was my jam. As good as any forum that ever existed. In my limited view, it was the best.
My husband is pretty active there still.
I never joined somethingawful but I spent a good chunk of my middleschool and high school years posting on small message boards and some bigger ones. It was always a fun experience and there was a semblance of community. Honestly even reddit in the earlier days had a huge sense of community and in the smaller subreddits you would recognize some names.
I miss it to, SA was the precurser of internet culture and was a fun place to post. I feel like the modern internet has been a bit sanded down.
There's dozens of us that are (or were) protected, it seems! Seriously, it was a great forum and it's still pretty good. It was legendary for the memes before they were called that, and the Photoshop Phridays were hilarious. I don't post much but you can still find some good discussions there, some of the subforums are still pretty big and active.
SA was a huge part of my adolescence. It still wasn't great but it was probably the only system i know that had a true community feel to it
It appears to still be around. I have just now heard about it. Are you still active there?
Not in a long time. I wound up drifting away for a multitude of reasons
