      Here's a challenge: stop using Spiceworks for 30 days.

      Done, many times over. Which is easy when a heavy handed mod gets a boner from ousting you from the community. Plus, after attending Spiceworld for the first time, I realize I never need to waste $$$ on that again.

      Be flattered someone still gets a boner for you. I'm devolving into a chicken mcnugget

      Pretty sure I'd be happier if I could slap the smirk off him.

      If it's the mod that I think you're thinking of, who's name rhymes with ass, then we have something in common. However, I would also posit that, due to the haste he displayed in sending me on my way, they no longer value the people that put time in to the community in the first place and only want quantity (as opposed to quality) in IT. That makes sense given that page views are their revenue generation.

      ^^^ Truth.

      In the meantime, my challenge stands: stop using Spiceworks' community for 30 days, if you're currently using it.

      Does lurking for information count? I still read stuff over there to learn, but zero posting.

        You mean to learn what not to do?

          I think lurking would be fine, especially if you have ublock activated.

            uBlock - always on.

            I enjoy lurking because I have access to the "secret" group.

                        I've been "Not on FB" for like six months now. It's great. But not nearly as good as not being somewhere else that I've not been for a year and a half, lol.

                          I've considered said challenge. So let's see if I can make it.

                            I've been off FB for about 6 months too, don't miss it much. Only thing I really liked were the memories.

                              I've been thinking of doing this.

                                ML, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn

                                But FB was never for news, just chatting. That's all I use those others for, too.

                                    I've been using Instagram a little, but I'm rapidly getting sick of it. NPR app for news. ML for everything else. I haven't been a fan of LinkedIn since it's inception.

                                      I was on it back when you had to have a .edu email to sign up. It was soooo much better then. Now it is complete shit, I agree.

                                        I have some people who talk to me on that. That's why I'm there.

                                            I hate fb too, wont use it. I pretty much just come here and Slack where I chat to people I actually invited and have an rss channel set up for sites I want to read. So basically, check rss, see if I have messages from family, then work. I just ignore everything else I come across throughout the day.
