I arrived late to this thread, but nevertheless here are my two yen:

Whenever one of the many Internet forums I frequent, for any reason starts to drift away from my tastes, I just. Simply. Leave.

That’s it. No fuzz, no rants, no complaints, no goodbyes.
Simply stop visiting the website.

EEVBLOG forum stories:

A guy was having a problem with his arbitrary waveform generator. He thought he was going crazy. I happen to have the same model. Within one two hours of his posting, I was able to replicate the error, posting screenshots from my oscilloscope. He then knew it was a bug in that unit. This information is now available to anyone on the internet that searches for it.

On several occasions members have posted good deals on test equipment on ebay that I have happily snapped up. I have influenced others to buy test equipment on several occasions (easy to do with the test equipment addicts on the TEA forum here) by pointing out good deals.

I find this board to be provide an bottomless well endless supply of great ideas, tool recommendations, practical advice, inspiration, and humor. Yes, also lots of BS and blowhards, but you get that in any gathering of humans.

Just today, I made everyone in a meeting at work laugh by retelling a joke from this forum.

I built my lab bench (the table and shelves) using tips and advice I read on this forum.

I have been able to do beta testing and make contributions to member-written software here, helping to make more useful tools for people that want to automate measurements.

I find EEVBLOG such a benefit that I give USD1 per month (big spender alert!) via Patreon. If you find the site useful and you have the dosh to spare, I urge you to do the same.
