If you don't want to answer then go to the next topic. That the beauty of the Internet. You're not face to face so there's no confrontation. You move on and block if you want to...

Nice my daughter too. No other children though.
Exactly just don't call me profanity or late for dinner.
Dragon’s Lair always looked cool but it was so much more expensive than the other games. So I only tried it a few times. Bought a LaserDisc player out of college to watch Star Trek 🤓🖖
I've been actively using "Ignore" this week. The reaction's very unique to MR.
I remember seeing the LaserDiscs of TAS in the rental shop.
I think I first watched TWoK on LaserDisc then on the DVD Director's cut in the 00s.
I've been teaching for 3 decades... I want role reversal.
If I did better in HS and went to better Uni then I'd be the one learning.
I'm actually not a bit surprised by the fact that most people who answered this poll were born between 1980-1998.
Do you have any guesses as to why MR is so different from the other message boards, social media, and online discussions you visit? Do you think it is related to the composition of commenters on MR, the moderation policies, or something else?
I used to be able to beat DL constantly. But seems anywhere that has it, it is set hard mode or something freaks out. I one time it was supposed to be coin free at one of the pay/h arcade, but it wanted money halfway through
I've been going ignore wild with the Netflix one. Sometimes I wish you could just ignore someone in a specific post. Sometimes you don't agree on a certain thing and just don't want to see their comments on it, but that doesn't mean you never want to see anything from them.

Would turn out all the lights, crank the speakers & get lost in those worlds. Someone left food at my room's door.

On FB there's hide for 30 days or hide forever. I do not think it's worth MR's R&D money to engineer something that specific.
I was actually looking for "block" so I do not see a warning that ignored person is replying. I don't want the mods to work overtime due to curiosity of unignoring.
When someone has too vivid and imagination that the world's out to get them... it may be time to see less of that and enjoy your leisure time on MR.
I signed up here to talk about the latest and greatest as the people around me aren't Apple nuts.
I think the other online forums had a creative outlet to de-stress. Remember my suggesting those on edge to take up birding? Photography is a nice outlet to get your endorphin hits and smile when the photo you took is perfectly composed and the wildlife's eye is completely sharp and in focus.
To think those forums had >80% baby boomers and they were cheerful bunch. Mind you, I was the youngest or 2nd youngest.
I do not think it has anything to do with economics as this forum are Apple users. We generally have $$$ to not get stung by premiums that PC users generally grok over.
It was cool and I spent loads of time (and quarters) on it. But, the flaw in that game was that it was rote. Once you figured out the pattern and the timing you could just sail through the game. At that point it became uninteresting.
It was early days with laserdisc for video games at that time. My friends and I spent a lot of time waiting for the employees to reset the game. That's how I came to find out it was laserdisc - they had to open the cabinet to reset it.I used to be able to beat DL constantly.

Khan would be great on Laser back then! For some reason I never ran across that one in the store - probably Camelot Music at the mall. I remember watching a few episodes and being amazed at the video and sound quality for the time.
I never got good at it. I remember the crowd around it every time I went to the mall!I used to be able to beat DL constantly.

Born in 1998. I joined this forum in 2016, when I was 17 and still in high school. I remember being quite surprised to learn that this forum has been around for as long as it has.
My dad was a big Beatles, Duran Duran, Madonna, and music fan. So I ended watching a lot of music video.
I recall watching Teen Wolf, Back to the Future, the Little Prince, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind and Ghostbusters trilogy
I joined this forum just after my 17th birthday, and it's been almost a year (March 5, 2022 is when I joined). I'd been reading MacRumors/the forums for a long time before that, though. I've really enjoyed being a part of it!
Beatles, Duran Duran, Madonna and music? Zzzzing!
Surprisingly he appreciates Pearl Jam, Oasis and Blur! He plays some of their songs in his cover band. That's more than I could say for a lot of any parent from his generation.... yes! I am generalizing!
