poster. I read the message boards every day, except when I need a break because I get bothered by the vitriol. But I’m never gone long. The non-subscriber boards have a different vibe from the subscriber boards. I don’t like the bashing and negativity that sometimes takes over, but I actually like the open board for being, well “open”. The subscriber board frequently comes across as a club for a small handful of frequent posters. The non-subscriber board gives me some relief from the boys club because I don’t post enough to be an insider.
