Something Awful Forums
The Something Awful Forums (usually abbreviated as the SA Forums) is a set of limited-access highly-modified message boards system on the popular humor website Something Awful, with a large userbase (48,000). The forums are ranked (as of September 2004) by Big-Boards as the 7th most popular on the net, in spite of a registration fee being charged for access. [1]. It runs on a heavily modified version of VBulletin. People who frequent the Something Awful Forums call themselves "SA Goons," or simply "goons." The forums are strictly moderated. The community is international, but mostly comprised of American males in the teen to 20s age range.
While a selection of forums is usually available for read-only anonymous browsing, it costs $10 to register a full account; this money goes directly to the webmaster, Rich "Lowtax" Kyanka, who currently makes a living from administering the forums. Many other forum features also cost $5 or $10 each, such as gaining permission to search the forums, putting an image and custom text under your or someone else's username (often to demean them).
