    How does Agora Road deal with bots and spooks -- in light of its coining the term "Dead Internet Theory"?

    question it is my (stupid) conviction that the phenomenon is real, spook* spook spooky* but really

    The great Agora emoji thread

    "What's so great about it anyway?" Hello, fellow travelers, I create this thread to talk about something very niche: Forum mascots and fanart, especially emojis/emoticons/smileys/smilies. Now, I like Agora, she sure is lovely :agsmile:, but I notice a serious lack of Agora smilies, and I have...

    The open sewer of "internet debates" is leaking into the forum

    Every good thread I've joined lately has devolved into low-tier open internet "communism v capitalism" slapfight debates. The "debates" are basically just namecalling with a "my mind won't be changed" superiority, while smugly debating the two option dichotomy: Stalin and Marx's communism vs...

    The current state of Agora Road

    As I and LostintheCycle pointed out in the Why is Microsoft trying to shoehorn us into Windows 11? thread, there has been a vibe shift on Agora Road. It is not uncommon for threads to devolve into flame wars and debate about unrelated subjects. I think we all noticed a surge of new accounts...

    Watching So-Called "Edgelord" Movies With A Nuanced View

    For at least the last decade, people have noticed a sort of trend in certain films- these sorts of films haven't come out in a while, but they all share a common plot structure and general sentiment, and therefore I and many others would argue that they can be categorized into a genre unto...

    [88x31 ART CHALLENGE] button for Agora Road

    Geocities_Example.gif We love our 88x31 button gifs. We love Agora. What better way to celebrate this love by making an agora-themed button? This is the perfect scale for a miniature art contest. I'd like to eventually make this a recurring thread to spark creativity and discussion...

    It's Time for the Smart, Wisecracking 'Meta-Movie' to Die

    The new "Scream" sequel, "The Matrix Resurrections" and every Marvel film ever indulges in nudge-nudge moments of fan service now. (This is an article from vice. Proof that a broken clock is right twice a day.) Remember when being a nerd was uncool? If you were born in or after the 90s, the...

    Agoracore: the Essence of the Road

    In this thread, share some pieces of media that encapsulate the essence of Agora's culture. This could be videos, music, images, or web-pages or anything else. The only rule should be not to use stuff from the site itself, rather find things that are not directly generated by Travellers. If you...

    Agora Road E-Zine Discussion Thread

    Do you want an Agora Road E-Zine? Agora Road is growing every day, and I think it would be pretty cool if we came together for a collaborative project like this. We would need a board dedicated to content submissions (be it writing, design, or otherwise). We would also need an Editor in Chief...
