Even majority of the nation knows that this is an event to be placed in history. He was a loving Godly man who's left his beloved wife and children behind,. His whole purpose was to have open ended discussions with all sides of the political spectrums. Say what you will about him, agree or disagree, no one, and I mean NO ONE should be silenced for having opposing views. To the radical left that are mocking his death and celebrating, you need to reflect, and reflect well on your disposition in life as this is not acceptable in any shape or form. If you want civil unrest, this is how you do it.

I personally don't care which side you take politically, it is never acceptable to take a life for having opposing views.

I've upgraded the forum and made some other changed, including:

New Themes
I have changed the theme of the forum because the last one has been problematic for me. There is now a LIGHT and a DARK theme option. Scroll to the bottom of the forum to choose the theme you'd rather use - light or dark. The light theme is the default theme.

Galleries
There is a new feature for member galleries. I need to mess with it more to see what it's all about. You should see the link at the top of the forum.

Most of the other features are backend and not that important.

Hope you like the new themes.]]> OTF Announcements Shawn https://offtopicforum.com/forum/main-forum/3818-many-new-changes https://offtopicforum.com/funny-gallery/3816-test Wed, 03 Sep 2026 00:24:45 GMT Test Test Funny Gallery Shawn https://offtopicforum.com/funny-gallery/3816-test https://offtopicforum.com/forum/tech-and-gadgets/webmaster-and-marketing/3809-are-forums-on-their-way-out-dead-internet-theory Tue, 02 Sep 2026 19:45:58 GMT Has anyone noticed that there are hardly any active forums out there?

Neither should anyone on the internet for that matter. However, this topic as been getting poplar as of late due to the giant influx of Subscription services screwing people over and game companies pulling the plug on a product that you bought but cannot access anymore. This is mostly about preservation of goods and what TRUE ownership means.

This past few years, streaming companies have been offering "ad-free" subs to some people, but it's not "ad free," there is a catch... Only selected titles are ad free. When you buy something that says ad-free you would expect it as much to be ALL ad free, right? Nope apparently not... The misleading and mishandling of these companies are greedy and predatory. Their choice of words in a language that they convey to only have the customer of simply put; "gotcha moment." The very sight of any ad that are placed there for me, I unsub right then and there. Oh? But where is the cancel button? It's hidden... of course it is. Now I am required to call to request my payment information to be taken off. And most times the phone services are not that great, its all automated... Ugh... Frustrating!

Now this is where that saying is mostly coming from. It's consumers who are bloody tired of now truly owning what they get and justifying the need to well... pirate in order to preserve. Not saying you should all just say screw it and go and download off some sketchy Russian site riddled with Trojan Virus... oh no screw that... Get it the Legit way, and get the product you want, but I would ignore the license agreement. Keep it as long as possible. As far as the subscriptions go, I wouldn't even bother. You're better off getting a DVD physical copy of the show or movie.

Here is an example... Cartoon Network. All of the greats back in the day like Johnny Bravo, Samurai Jack, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Powerpuff Girls, or Ed Edd' n Eddy. These are all going away! Quite literally! Streaming services are taking them off, Cartoon Network doesn't exist nor does Boomerang that hosted all these old classic cartoons. It's a tragedy we are losing so much history in a blink of an eye with no preservation planned.]]> News, Debates, and Theories LarryMyster https://offtopicforum.com/forum/general/debate/3778-if-buying-isn-t-owning-piracy-isn-t-stealing https://offtopicforum.com/forum/general/general-discussion/3777-guns Mon, 25 Aug 2026 20:57:48 GMT
I carry a conceal where I go (yes, I am licensed). I have a 9mm S&W SDVE-9. It's a Nice medium handgun. And now since I'm getting into Gun Smithing I am going to not buy, but build my own AR-15 rifle. My only complaint about my conceal pistol is that you require to have the mag in the gun in order to pull the slider off to clean or maintain the gun. Meaning you have to have an empty mag for that very purpose which is annoying. Also no safety, what the heck is that about!?]]> General Talk LarryMyster https://offtopicforum.com/forum/general/general-discussion/3777-guns https://offtopicforum.com/forum/general/debate/3776-dc-clean-up-and-beyond Mon, 25 Aug 2026 20:49:33 GMT What are your thoughts on DC being cleaned up with the help of the national guard? How do you feel the military being used to help law enforcement in...
Some say it is an act of control by the administration others have expressed, except and especially locals think its an awesome thing that their beloved capitol is finally cleaned up. My personal opinion is that it's good, it needs to happen, I think at least every 8 years max. A complete purge of crime, drugs and garbage needs swept off the streets to keep normal commute bystanders feeling safe. Crossing my fingers they get to the west coast. LA, Portland, and Seattle needs cleaning too. Whenever I drive through Portland and if I don't have my conceal on me I feel very vulnerable. People get mugged or murdered in broad daylight. ]]> News, Debates, and Theories LarryMyster https://offtopicforum.com/forum/general/debate/3776-dc-clean-up-and-beyond https://offtopicforum.com/forum/general/general-discussion/3769-do-you-know-sign-language Thu, 21 Aug 2026 08:23:06 GMT
I feel those who handicapped people who can't talk have so much to say but unfortunately it's not everyone that knows sign language to communicate with them.

Do you know sign language?

Most babies used to call out mama because they're always with them while in rare cases, they choose to say dada.
