Why I Left the PNJ Forums

I’ve recently stopped going to the PNJ forums and am now using the forums on Gulf Coast Gab.

Here’s why:

1. The posters on GCG are much more civil than some of the dregs that frequent the PNJ forums. Before going on the PNJ forums, I’d never been berated on any Internet message board. Some of the posters on that site are real cretins, and will personally attack you if they don’t agree with something you say.
   
   In my experience, the GCG forums give posters a space where you can talk about issues in a constructive manner. I’ve never seen anyone insult another poster on the GCG forums.
   
   
2. The PNJ doesn’t feed their forums with their news stories. This is something they did on their old site, but stopped doing it when they launched their new site. By not feeding their discussion board with their news stories, The PNJ is preventing posters from discussing current events.
   
   Not only does Gulf Coast Gab feed their forums with PNJ stories, they also feed stories from four other news sources.
