I did start out when the forum was TVTome.com, and I'm still there now that it's TV.com. I liked it better when it was TVTome.com, since there wasn't quite the trouble with trolls that there is now. They were dealt with rather quickly, but now, it takes several complaints from several different people to get something done about it. There are a lot of people there who are only there to stir up controversy and the only posts they make are intended to create dissent. I have to wonder if some of them even watch the show, honestly. There are also a lot, and I mean a LOT, of spammers-people who only are interested in games and RPG's and such, rather than actual discussion. At some times, it's not uncommon for the entire first page of posts to be entirely made up of spam. Compare the actual number of posts discussing, say, the latest episodes, with things like "Foster's This or That Game" or "A Day At Foster's(RPG)", and you'll see what I mean.
One of the reasons that this forum, or rather, its predecesor, was created was a response to TV.Com, to give genuine Foster's fans a place to hold intelligent discussions of our favorite show, without worrying about constant troll attacks or having to wade through mountains of spam just to read about or discuss a thread on a favorite episode, characters, etc.
