Well I liked it for torrents but since they are dead now (and will be useless since licenced ones wont show even when it start to work) so I gues im around here for people and random posting my sneer comments.

Was mainly here for torrents, and when they went down, I started posting and discovered that majority of people here are intelligent and fun to chat with :)

drama, conflict, entertainment, and dickgirls:confused:(I can only find these phenomenons in H-F)
Initially I came here for the torrents, then the gallery, now the forum.
Overall HongFire is awesome community.

This site make awesome toorent contributions. The forum is clean and neat, very organized and its structure -talking about php- is fast and good ^_^
Started out here as torrent only. But then started chatting in the forums. Then got annoyed and posted more. Now am really annoyed and post often....j/k.
There're good ppl here It's cool to intermingle with all of them.

I used to like the gallery flash section a lot, people actually put flashes there that are entertaining to watch/interact. Then there was the 30 post rule in forums so you can post in the gallery.
So I started looking for topics to respond to, so I found these pedo's who I tried correcting by telling them watching little kids involved in sex acts is wrong. That is where I got my rep creamed and started finding out that they actually searched other forums for my nick and attempted creaming my rep there too. They propably tried sending me Loli via e-mail then call the FBI to bust me, but that didn't work as I am not a pedo.
Well that is why I love hongfire...
Any other questions ?

ero-sannin: Don't drag personal wars into this. You may find what you say is regarded as flame baiting.
Whether or not said loli-lovers responded in the way they did isn't what's at issue here. Note the title of the thread, and please stick to it.

I like HF's Members loyal due to the shutdown of the torrents... loosing theri pics in the gallery and loosing many of their posts during the reconstruction..
Thats why I like it so much.

i won't be ironic.
i like hongfire for a few of the members (sadly getting less, but still some are cool), and occasional interesting torrents. i can also dump my torrents here if they are unlicenced....
i guess that's about it...

Initially the torrents were great, then I used it to find out great links... I've since poked around a bit and compared it to other sites and hongfire holds it's own very well. I would especially mention the forum layout. Other sites, I feel like I need a degree or something to post :( Really hard on the eyes. This place is good for someone not technologically inclined like myself. There's the occassional weird person, but as I've been that weird person from time to time it's not a deal breaker ;) Plus if I use chatrooms as the standard of comparison everybody here is a freaking einstien :D

Sadly, I can't say that I love Hongfire as much as I used to. Sure the community here is great, but most of the time I can't relate to anything being said in any of the threads because I'm not an avid anime watcher and never will because I involve myself too much in my school work :(. Also, I can't really find many torrents on this site worth downloading anymore because quite frankly, the torrents on this site and many others went down the toilet because of the lawsuit scares that companies were making towards torrent sites. Also, the gallery used to rock, but it doesn't seem as organized as it used to be, and I can't rate anything or comment on anything yet because of some silly post count...
But, I'm an optimist and so I will continue to pray for this site in hopes that its content will increase in quality and that the community continues to grow.

Hmm.. I used to get lotsa emails of updates about new torrents being uploaded in Hongfire a long long time ago.. almost everything was available here.. .. but those were the times.. I prefer the old Hongfire.. the old gallery,...
Still.. Hongfire has a nice community.. new games and movies are uploaded here.. good place to get information about merchandise.... yea.. the gallery looks a bit messy now..

Why did my post get deleted?
I really, honestly need to know why.
Is it because I'm not allowed to express my discontent with Hongfire?
I don't remember reading that in the rules anywhere...
If nobody tells me why my post got deleted, how am I supposed to fix whatever I'm doing wrong?
Would it not be better to just edit posts and give a reason for removal rather than outright deleting them?

Hey, stoic. Believe me, you're not alone on this. I myself get some of my posts deleted sometimes without prior notice. But in your case, selfishness will lead you nowhere... you spam alot and your comments are somehow offensive to others. Its simple as that. :p
Anyway, this makes it look like I'm folllowing you. If its meant like that then maybe I just care for you. :rolleyes:

I can always use more followers. Especially female followers, but male followers are almost usefull for a few far less important things as well. Maybe for recruiting more followers or something.
One day I'll rule the world, and my word will be law. Me and my followers shall live a life of unimaginable luxury, and everybody else shall live in a torturous, day-to-day hell. I will abuse my power to extremes never before thought possible by humanity.
Doesn't that sound nice? Kinda sounds like Iraq in the Saddam era, actually... But far better.

Your popularity with the mods is increasingly becoming more and more
like how much the mods just "love" oink....
No idea whose oink??? check out the banned member section...
Still have no idea how much the mods love oink????
Remember that lion loving guy who got himself banned for seemingly
harmless posts a day after he joined???
(well they are really harmless if you compared them to your posts)
He's really popular with members here... Lots of members actually
like that guy... This goes to show that what the members like might
not be what the mods like...
However... in your case... it's kinda different... the mods don't particularly
like you... and the members... well just check out your reps...

So you're saying that the mods are evil? And what do you mean by MY rep? What about YOUR rep?
It's BLACK! The color of EVIL!
The black thing, combined with the fact that I have more rep than you, makes me think that perhaps you don't fully understand the depth of what you're saying.
I, however, have you totally figured out.
I think you've got a crush on me.

It's stupidity at times like this which brings my mood a bit higher than before :D:p Plus it makes me feel smart ^^
this community is so strange at times... even in this militaristic state of Hongfire scrutiny :p Sometimes I fear the staff did a coup against mister Hongfire :eek: And in conclusion, this is why I like HF ^^
*discalaimer: of course there are other reasons too... but no need to get into those ideals :p

I love HF because it's the greatest waste of time I've found yet. And the comunity is also great, except a few rotten eggs. And I generally don't like rotten eggs. Actually, I don't like eggs at all. Well, boiled eggs are allright, but otherwise no. But I'm willing to look past even that. That's how great HF is.
Hijiko
09-20-2005, 08:50 PM
lol i agree with Denamic, greatest waste of time, even if it's time i should be spent on uni stuff (maybe that's y work has been piling up =/). Other then that, i would have to say the majority of the members who post here, and especially the Girls? (http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php?t=262) threads as it was the one that got me to start posting =D. And of course who can forget the torrents n gallery >__>

Why do I love HongFire? That's a tough one, but let me give it a shot.
HongFire.com is a place...
Where you can always find something new and interesting to pass the time.
Where torrents aren't always the main draw of a torrent site.
Where strangers can debate the merits of anime-related fetishes.
Where black dots are worn as badges of pride.
Where hugging orgies were once a common sight.
Where members can swap genders and call it a phenomenon.
Where a thread about girls is anything but.
Where conspiracy theories about deleted posts run amuck.
Where avatars and sigs are viewed as artistic license.
Where gallery divas can achieve international fame.
Where our illustrious leader is more elusive than Bigfoot.
Where you can find polls about religion and hard drive space side by side.
Where ecchi and hentai are the norm rather than the exception.
Where you can find self-proclaimed jerks with a heart of gold.
Where love can bloom in the most unexpected places.
Where even complete strangers can feel like longtime friends.
Where you're constantly reminded that you're not alone in your insanity.
And where even a casual poster like me can reach 100 posts!! :)
Denamic

feels so casual and normal here...
with flying spaghetti monster worshippers, to penguins as god's scheme, to forum weddings, to hentai and loli extravaganza, i wonder why...

My reason? The community is EXTREMLY honest, nice, respectful, and helping. I've met a good sum of people here, and not ONE person here was an asshole. There might be the exception, but at least the percentage of assholes on hongfire is very low compared to some other forums.
Whats your reason?

I loved this site mainly because of the community and people. People here are nice and easy to get along with. Also, most of the people here are interested in the same thing as I am so there is always something interesting to see or read. Also, compared to some larger forums, HongFire is very clean and organized. I've seen forums with thread like "The get to 100000 replies thread!!", which would be nuked if it ever appeared on HF...

I actually dont know why i like this place, it's actually the only forum i have over 200 posts on. It might love the place because it has everything i like all rolled up into one package.

I used to love this site, which is the reason why i have the amount of posts i have now. And of course the reason Knifes stated also applies to me. The random stupidity posts that I see occasionally. :p Also the Knifes phenomenon were one of the good things that happened in hf.
It's all about the community and members here. The warm and caring community. ^^ But with most, or almost all of the "old" members gone, my motivation is decreasing day by day. And random disappearances of posts are quite the problem here. You just post and pray that it's not your turn for your posts to disappear yet. :D

We've already explained why old posts get deleted. If you think your post is being deleted for no reason. Then you should PM a staff member to investigate.
What I do not understand is that you complain about it to others but you don't complain to the staff. So what's the point? Out to make us look bad?

Ya!!! that's what I like about HF so much. So much drama and arguements going on that sometimes make me go ROFL.
P.S. I heard there were 3 Knifes Phenomena or was it 2... anyways I missed that b/c I wasn't so active back then.
Could someone direct me there??? Thnx :p
