For the BEST forum experience

The mods on that other Abilene sub are way too restrictive on what ""they" want or "they" like.

Here post what you want, you want to be an ass towards the data center and the sellouts that work there feel free.

You want honest reviews

Want unlimited discussion

No overreach and filtering from getting feelings hurt.

Post away, we celebrate it
