Lately some postings have become real absurd
How much can Jason Vorhees bench?
What type of Laptop should I buy?
Naked Danny bonaduce??
What happened to the hardcore board I used to love?
Blame the moderators. There is nothing wrong with any of those topics, but they should be posted in the right forum (General Topics, Entertainment, etc.). When they aren’t, the mods should move them.
You might also want to blame yourself. You say you want “hardcore” yet you are clicking on a thread about “gossip & opinions”? If you want hardcore, you can easily limit yourself to forums like Training Q&A, Nutrition Products, Steroids Info, etc.
