What's FFVB? Some kind of filter, I'm guessing. Sounds useful, but I doubt I'd go to the GB anyway. It's just too flamey for me in most of the places where I'd want to have a discussion. I think the BDSM boards are far more level-headed.
Whodathunk? Perverts are better adjusted than the common folk? ;->
Yeah, FFVB is a firefox add-on that lets you control your forum much more directly than the forum will allow. For instance, when you put someone on ignore here, you can still see that they posted. Other people can quote them, and you can still see that. Basically, the only thing you can't do is see the threads they start and get PMs from them.
With FFVB, no quoting, no threads, no posts, no PMs, NOTHING shows up. Sometimes it does make it a little hard to follow a conversation because it -looks- like the other person is talking to no one, but most of the time you can kind of tell, since the other person is generally defending themselves from being flamed.

And truthfully, the reason the BDSM board is so nice....? It's the fact that the GB has no mods. *laughs*
The only reason I know that is I'm on another message board, Dryer Lint, that has a ton of Literotica people in the GB and they HAVE to be well behaved over there, it's closely monitored. If the GB had moderators to force people to be civil or get banned, it'd be exactly like the BDSM board. With less kink. I'm guessing.
Honestly, FFVB is a life saver. Once I put Mr. Obsessed on Nuclear FFVB ignore over here, the BDSM board got SO MUCH NICER all of a sudden.
