I don't remember the last time an intelligent comment was made in the explosives forums over there.

Oh wait. Intelligent comments are never made. It's like their policy; it's also their chief characteristic.

Most of the posters are 11-13 year old kids who have no idea what they're playing with. They can't spell, articulate their thoughts, or provide information that's worth shit.

They can't research for themselves, they constantly ask how "2mAk3 33-Z b0mZ!!", and they can't think up anything original enough to be taken seriously. Their mods are a joke.

Any members that have any potential over at bombshock explosive forums leave for The Forum, or sometimes &TOTSE. Bombshock is where the idiots stay.

It works quite well; it keeps most of the dumbasses out of the other forums. So I don't have a problem with bombshock in that sense. It serves its function.

That said, it's also a giant crock of elephant shit.

peace out.

I don't have any problem with bombshock other than this:

"Due to the amount of people visiting the archives I have had to put a restriction on its access. Over 3000 people were generating around 40,000 file requests A DAY!!!! So much that my webhost temporaraly shut the site down. I do not want to take the archive offline because it hosts a goldmine of knowledge but I simply can't afford to just give it to EVERYONE at 100% cost to myself.

You will be charged 14.00 per month that you wish to have access if you choose to pay with paypal.

You will be charged 15.00 per month that you wish to have access if you choose to pay with verotel using a credit card.

You will be charged 16.00 per month that you wish to have access if you choose to pay with verotel using the pay-by-check option.

You will be charged 17.95 to your phone bill if you choose to pay with verotel by dialing a 1900 phone number and retreiving login details."

What they are basically doing is taking text files that they got for free on totse and other places, and charging people to access them. Does that sound good or right to you?

Of course, he doesnt tell people who he is charging a minimum of $14 per month that he got that stuff for free.

That's my only problem with bombshock.

I wouldnt visit it there - its a site all about fucking the system and being ripped off by society.

And i get told they are charging people.

I stick my middle finger up to the creators and the payers.

Peace Renegade,

Never heard of Bombshock...

But anyone stupid enough to pay for access to text files that they can probably find elsewhere if they just dig a bit deserves what they get.

I encourage everyone to start a forum of their own. To make their own place on the web for people to come to. However, be original, do something unique to yourself, and be true to your own vision.

Just today I saw this on bombshock:

"I will take your suggestion on board and add a "irresponsoble activities" catorgary and merge anarchy with "anarchy and political philosophies". "

It's a shame when people can't think of anything original.

J.C.
