What does Author Antwian Marcel Crawford do?
Antwian Marcel Crawford, pen named Intellect, is the author of two books of poetry. A Look Into My Third Eye, published in 2005 and Third "Eye"solated, published in 2013. He also has a chart toping Classic Poetry CD, self titled, "Intellect, The CD", that held the number one spot for approximately 2 years in South Florida on ReverbNation, which was released in 2010. Mr. Crawford is the Founder of The Underground Poet's Society, which has been in existence since July, 2000 and officially turned into an Official 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization in 2007, now called The Underground Poet's Society, Inc. Mr. Crawford has also made a career in Mechanical and Architectural Design, along with Structural Steel and Miscellaneous Metals, specializing in Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Revit, which is a 3D Modeling Program and is the wave of the future in building and construction. He currently lives in Sunrise, Florida, located on the outskirts of Fort Lauderdale, just North of Miami. He was born in Jersey City, New Jersey but was raised in Radford, Virginia. Mr. Crawford spent most his early years in Radford where he was raised and is the place he calls home because it helped shape and mold him into the man that he is today. He has been living in South Florida since 1993 after moving from Newton, North Carolina in which he lived for a few years. "Poetry has been my passion since 1986 and I use it as one of many forms of self-expression due to the limitless potential and creativity that comes from writing." Antwian goes on to say that, "Whether it be hip-hop, poetry, spoken word or anything that uses the art of expression through words, whether written or verbal, it is considered to be poetry to me because it all fits under the same poetic umbrella." Mr. Crawford has made a living using the creative side of his mind through his profession (also considered art) and the art of Poetry and, with the two combined, he brings almost 3 decades of professional experience to the table.

Every page load they shove a reminder in your face to disable your ad blocker. Good job this ad blocker can also block these annoying reminders,and these constant popups are not tempting me to disable ad blocking, they just make me more angry and happy to do it.

I use Proboards Forums.

I use Proboards Forums.
I am currently using Proboards Forums.
My site is called "Cabbage"
I do stuffwith fermenting and souring it.
I have to say that the negative reviews that I have read on here really surprise me.
I have found the support forum to be among the best I have ever used.
Proboards is free to use and its is far better than other forum software that I have used.
Proboards servers are super fast and load your pages in a flash.
The layout and admin areas are simple to use and a joy to work with.
Themes and plugins are available and lots of them.
The SEO situation is not perfect but try out some of Proboards competitors and you won't see anything better.
If you want your site to load fast you have to go for the add free option which is very reasonable at around $6 a month.
Proboards V6 went into beta stage this week and I am looking forward to taking it out for a spin.
Yes I like Proboards.
Would I recommend Proboards ? ABSOLUTELY.
For those of you who have spoken negatively about Proboards, I would suggest at least having the decency to register for an account and use the software before making your comments.
I started out with Createaforum software and used it for six months., I never saw a search engine once.
Whenever I make changes to my Proboards site the search engines are there in an instant.
I have checked most of the forums out there and most of them come with their own set of problems.
From very slow page loading times to difficulty understanding how they operate.
The trouble with all forums is that you have to be prepared to do a bit of work and this is where Proboards outshines the rest with its simplicity, You don't need to waste your time figuring things out, you can just get on with adding new content.
The five stars is based on what you get compared to the rest

The site admins randomly delete boards when they feel like it, even if that board did literally nothing malicious,they'll wake up and see that their board was removed for 25(a). Upon reading the terms of service, they'll realize that 25(a) literally says "we can remove you for no reason".
While normally this clause is used as a legal backing and/or to save time, proboards uses this to terminate randomly people they don't like for laughs.
I hope this website fades into obscurity and the "CEO" badly running this mess quits and gets a real job. Nobody should use this website.

If I give you a quarter for free...clam up about the dirt on it.

The link showed up on the first page of google when searching for the ProBoards API. I've read most,if not all, of the comments and although some of the comments appear as valid gripes without merit. Most of the comments appear to be from a certain centric perspective (I, me, mine, wah!).
Proboard owners own and ought to operate their world any way they wish (even if it hurts our feelings or destroys any of our expectations).
Need I remind that probably most of the comments on Trust Pilot against Proboards are not customers of Proboards (until they can post a valid receipt that some quid pro quo has occurred).
Just as if you were to visit my house, you WOULD take your shoes off when I ask you (or you will just leave), as an example (*why am I suddenly envisioning a female?)....Anyway, yes Proboards has some odd behaviors such as the sudden visitors I see when I log in as admin (but when anonymous, it's a desert), this though is just an assessment made for the time, I could be wrong about any devious manipulative covert or clandestine plottings. And yes, when I tried to incorporate various chat software with proboards, it failed (that's my wah!).
****Now let's hear the positive news about ProBoards:
1.) It's free (if you can build yourself a better chat server, then DO IT! nothing in mind? Enough said.)
2.) I noticed that when googling "Springfield Ohio Chat" that Proboards brings up my page on the top of the first page of results. For any of us not professional at SEO, that is an accomplishment.
3.) It's free (if we don't like it, kick it to the curb. it doesn't mean it was bad.................IT JUST MEANS IT DIDN'T WORK FOR YOU OR YOU OR YOU OR .....YOU).
4.) Although I was at one time kind of miffed a few years back (they took my administrative privileges down to a glorified user or sub-admin level), but in all honesty I break a LOT of stuff and seeing as how it's been years without full admin of the FREE proboards account, it's used to the capacity that is probably best (for me....and maybe you if you are on my proboard site at the time I press the red button.).

i found someone trashing my name on a proboards.com forum, so i followed proboards.com procedure to report it as harassment.after 2 months, the slanderous remarks were still posted on this forum even though i reported it as abusive. So i made a forum on proboards.com and said the exact same things about the exact same people that are trashing my name. Mine got pulled down citing section 25a (the "we don't need a reason" claus) BUT the one i complained about is still up. unacceptable
