I never looked at any of the extracurricular options on Shroomery yet. None of the ratings stuff, click none of the categories. The other day I was trying to find where to donate to Shroomery and I gave up after five minutes. There's just too much shit to click Shroomery needs a streamlined frontend. Most I do is pm people and click the star by the posts I like.

(And as an aside... for real Shroomery needs to cull like half the message boards into one category, because the community just isn't active enough anymore for 75% of these boards imo. Just a side thought lol)

You aren't wrong, but it looked EXACTLY like this the first time I hung out here in 2009, and who knows how long it looked like this before. Idk shit about the techy side of running things like this, but I get the impression there isnt anyone doing this as a full time job or something - it would likely take a metric fuckton of work to overhaul the forum or even to better organize what is here. Also, it says somewhere that it's as much a data base as anything, and that's why the old outdated stuff is left up. I read something like that anyway. But yeah, it blew my mind to come back here and have it look exactly like it did years ago.

It makes me incredibly happy that it still looks like it did when I signed up 16 years ago. I hope it never changes at this point. But I do think things could be made easier to navigate

ppl that can't navigate the website probably don't deserve to be here or couldn't comprehend or sort out the info they needed

i think the website and or its functionality keeps ppl away that shouldn't be here and thats fine. there is a place for everyone and sometimes shroomery isn't that place if u cannot navigate it at the very least

The Hobbit’s new updated search engine Tek:

“(Your question or topic here) The shroomery” feed this into Google. Then make sure the topics you read are about 2-3 years old or less.

On that note, would you say the contemporary body of work reliably goes back 3 or 4 years?

I like to also reference any info from an older thread that I come across to
this thread as well.

The Boneyard

I guess I feel at home on the shroomery because I spent a lot of time on various car message boards from 2000-2016.
There’s specific features this forum has that are new to me, but it all feels pretty intuitive.
