    Is it necessary for me to use Pinside? No, but I do it anyway because it's sterile and I like the taste.

    And, the people. Yeah, the people.

    Quoted from pinballaddicted:

    Pinside only gets a bad rap on social media (facebook group). Social media is easily trolled by a small minority and the algorithms running social media keep bringing these posts to your attention all the time. FB is always trying to push you to sponsored sites and control where you go. You can control your situation much better on Pinside. You can drain threads, block the negativity and taylor the experience much better to suit your self.
    Pinside if full of great people and products that are easy to find. You have a problem with a machine, start a thread and there are plenty of Pinsiders willing to help. If you can use the search function, more than likely someone has already had the same issue and there is a solution for you right there and then. Threads are easy to find and go back to. A lot of Pinsiders have made friendships as well.
    The amount of good people on Pinside prepared to share their knowledge is amazing. Pinside is old school like pinball. I love it and all the good people that go with it.

    I got downvoted into oblivion on reddit for suggesting that Pinside was better than the FB groups. I avoid FB like the plague. FB sucks. Pinside rocks. There is no comparison.
