is everyone going to Previously TV?


If so, keeping the same name?

If I do move, I'll still be MissKitae.

I signed up there and I know a few others did too. There are a few new boards that have been started. I figure I'll join them all and then see which one I like best.

reply

I thought about that route, but I hate keeping track of so many useless memberships.

Every so often, I doxx myself to delete accounts I never use anymore, or don't need.

reply

I hear ya!! I think that one probably will be best for TV shows. Just a drag that not everything is in one spot anymore.

There used to be a community called TWOP (Television Without Pity) that shut down a while back. It was snarky and fun. This looks like it's the continuation of that, so I think that will probably be where most land.

The original TWoP crew (Sars, Glark, Wing Chun, Al Lowe, etc. etc.) was actually the founders of Previously TV, so you're right on the mark there.

Previously TV has the same snarkiness and good discussion as TWOP, but not the psychotic power-hungry moderation. It's a cool place.

reply

Good to know Scarlett, thanks.

I've been over there for about a week and like it so far. The only thing that's hard to get used to is the one thread per episode and not being able to start a thread about something not necessarily episode-centric. But overall it's a good site. None of the homophobic, women hating, racist, or "Poor me, I'm such a victim" crap goes on there which is refreshing. I can already tell, they would shut that down in an instant, which is a nice change.

It's funny you said that about the moderators from TWoP. I had forgotten that, but some of them did act like this was life and death, lol.

reply

The funny thing is, the golden era of early TWOP (early 2000s) the mods were very chill. Then Bravo bought TWOP and the mods became powerhungry, nasty jerks with huge sticks up their asses. It was just awful and god forbid you go OFF TOPIC!!!! for a minute. I was actually kind of glad when it died in 2014.

Previously TV is like old-school TWOP, at least the forums. The recaps are sadly not the same.

Their recaps were awesome!! It was like a blow by blow per scene! See you over there!

reply

Yeah I've signed up there. Looks like a good board, with more good discussion and fewer trolls.

reply

I think like previously.tv, but I'm also considering reddit. I like the idea of being able to start topics which I don't think you can do with previously.tv.

reply

I joined reddit too. You're right that the topics are much more structured @ptv. I think it's one thread for each episode.

reply

I have to admit I feel kind of bad about infiltrating the current SVU subreddit. There seems to be a fair amount of love for Mariska there, and while that doesn't bother me (even though I'm not a huge fan), it could rub some of the posters here the wrong way.

Haven't posted yet, but it looks like it might be a good place to discuss the show. Hope they welcome us. If not, we may have to start our own.

I made a post in the new 24 Legacy group to just test the waters and people seem pretty friendly. Just like here, each board is it's own subgroup with different personalities. I will have to check out the SVU group there. Haven't even looked at it. But if it's pro MH, that knocks out at least half of this crowd, lol.

reply

yey Susan!! I am glad you went ahead and joined! Message me your u/ if you want to and we can try to keep in touch there



I can't die! I have 43 twitter followers that depend on me! oh, and I have a daughter.

reply

I've never been on Reddit. I'll have look into it.

reply

Reddit is amazing! I have been a redditor for a long time. You can find anything and everything there! I have never encountered trolls, but I think it because of the choice of subs I prefer. Go check it out. Search something odd and I guarantee there will either already be an existing sub for it, or a ton of posts about it somewhere on reddit.
Also, the Secret Santa and Reddit Gift Exchanges are a total blast!!
I hope to see you over there Miss Kate!

I'll check it after I take a shower, lol.

reply

I will probably stick to previously tv, it seems to have lots of good, balanced discussion while Reddit sounds like an MH/Olivia circle jerk and I've heard Reddit is a haven for SJW snowflakes as well, they would probably kick me off for being anti Benson and anti preachy episodes.

reply

I thought Tumblr was their home?

reply

If you are saying that previously tv is the home to homophobes and women haters, I think I will stay clear of the place. I am sure you will feel right at home 🐟 boy.

reply

They have mods that actually see what's going on and post so there have been no issues there.

reply

I haven't decided where I am going to land, or if I even want to land somewhere. I might just lurk at all of them for a while.

Still loving The Tell Tale Heart so watch for that when I finally surface.

reply

You would be welcomed there! Hope to see you.

reply

No reason to attack me you disgusting elitist scumbag, especially since I haven't attacked you or your friends. Once again, you are probing that you are the bully and troll, I guess since you can no longer follow Nancy around you have to attack someone else.

Previously TV is much better than this board, actual discussion happens, not bullying and trolls. I certainly won't miss you when these boards close.

reply

It's not and the mods there are actually better than IMDB mods

reply

I think the IMDb Mods are just a computer algorithm, to be honest.

reply

There are no live mods. It's an automated system If a poster, causing a problem, rises to the level of someone like Nancy, an actual human will get involved, but that's about the only time.

reply

I know much, much smaller forums have a handful of human mods that pop in from time to time and clean house, but I didn't expect anything human with the reporting system here.

reply

@PTV, there was a thread on this weeks SVU episode that was getting a little off topic and the mod showed up and posted a "gentle reminder" to get back on topic. They were nice about it, but it's a whole different ball game over there. It's a nice change. I'm sure the stuff that goes on here will never happen there.

The only thing that's kind of weird is that it's one thread per episode. There's no starting new threads for something that's not episode centric. Just takes some getting used to.

reply

Exact same thing happen on the Counting on boards at Previously Tv

Hate speech — when it does occur at previously.tv, and it rarely does, and is pretty tame — is nipped in the bud by mods who include among their crew feminist and LBGT supporters.

One thing previously.tv has that IMDb doesn't have is the ability to "like" posts when you don't necessarily want to say anything. And the "likes" are hearts!

reply

That one things I like about previously tv the like button

I did sign up for a previouslytv account and kept my user name there. I haven't decided if I will join any of the other sites yet.
