mjmooney Posted January 17, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) I know several of us subscribe to other forums, and I often wonder how similar to/different from VT they are. The only one I really frequent is Expecting Rain - a Bob Dylan forum. They have an Off Topic section, and these are some of the threads in it: Quote What are you reading now? Seen any good movies lately? Let's discuss television programs What made your day today? What are you drinking right now? What are you listening to now? Marijuana discussion NFL 2017 Art thread: painting, sculpture, photography, etc. Thread for iconic or interesting photographs What's the weather like outside your window? The official old time puns and jokes thread Dogs Last records bought Funny videos What pissed you off today? Shocking confessions! Major league baseball (2018) I had a dream... Ask Old Man Emu NBA fans? The official boxing fans thread Post pics of people you find hot... gals and guys The golf thread Football (soccer) dicussion thread How do you stay fit? Looks familiar.

Rugeley Villa Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I was on a led Zeppelin forum at one point, but have not posted on there for a long time. It's superb though, tbf. I'm also on a sabbath forum which I don't bother with anymore, because it's pretty shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayls Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I don’t bother with any other forums. VT pretty much has everything I need. Was looking at my profile the other day, and to think that I joined in December 2010 is crazy. I must have looked at this site everyday for just over 7 years. Mental. Sorry, I release I haven’t contributed very much to this discussion! Hah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 17, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2018 I used to be a pretty committed member to an Arsenal forum. In the same way we've had fans of other clubs on here. That was fun but they gradually lost interest in me so I fell away from that. Only other forums I've been proper members of is an Audi forum and a poker forum. But neither of those lasted very long. VT is the only one I still regularly use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted January 17, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2018 I browse Denver Broncos forums but I'm not a member. Mostly it's a SBnation blog so no forum as such, only comments on articles. VT really is the only one, and Off topic at that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Have the same name and avatar on a music forum elsewhere and was duly found by another VTer. He assured me there was no stalking involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Just here , I joined up for the Villa section , back in the day when you could write a front page article if you so wished !! long term I found OT was a more enjoyable way of passing the time (sometimes ) and picked up a few friends along the way ( quite a few of whom don't post on here any longer ) tbh I had zero interest in Politics when I joined the forum , but that's where the more heated and colourful debate tends to be had and where I spend far too much of my time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted January 17, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2018 VT is the only forum I’ve joined. Not on any music/film ones, the threads in off topic more than suffice. I’ll look at other club’s forums if there’s something interesting happening, say if a former Villa manager has been announced as that club’s new boss. That’s just to see what they’re take on it is. I wouldn’t have time to post much on another forum. While it can get heated in on topic at times, having looked at other club’s forums, we really have it good here.

Rugeley Villa Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 The thing I like about VT, is that it's full of clearings in the woods. Really feel at home here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I've been on a cricket forum for about 10 years which predates me joining here, and sometimes read a couple of bands' forums but don't post much. You do get similar topics though, I've even seen the arse wiping topic covered somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the whole, their Off Topic isn't a patch on VT (although the books thread is pretty good). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I thought the same (I guess there may be one that had dropped down the list beyond where I checked). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
