Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding chemistry forums that offer a community experience similar to Physics Forums (PF). Participants express their desire for engaging conversations about chemistry rather than just homework help.

Discussion Character

  • Meta-discussion
  • Exploratory

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses dissatisfaction with existing chemistry forums, describing them as dry and primarily focused on homework help.
  • Another participant suggests a specific chemistry forum, ScienceMadness, as a potential alternative that may better meet the needs of chemistry enthusiasts.
  • There is a light-hearted exchange about the possibility of attracting members from other forums to PF.
  • Some participants acknowledge that while PF is a good site, it lacks the chemistry focus that some users are seeking.
  • A participant mentions that there are members from the suggested forum who are also part of PF, but they do not actively post in the chemistry sections.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that PF does not fully satisfy their desire for chemistry discussions, but there is no consensus on the best alternative forums or the extent of activity in the chemistry sections of PF.

Contextual Notes

Participants express varying levels of interest in chemistry forums, with some indicating a preference for more engaging content rather than just academic support. The discussion does not resolve the question of which forum is definitively better.

Who May Find This Useful

Individuals interested in chemistry discussions and looking for community forums that provide a more engaging experience than typical homework help sites.

First off, i would like to say that i love PF, been reading the post here sense the "first edition" of PF (was the last edtion the first edtion?) well any ways although i love PF i want to be a chemist when i get out of college. Does anyone know of any GOOD chemistry forums. I have searched on the net, but to no avail, all the chemistry forums i have found have been dry and gearered toward homework help ( no one seems to enjoy talking about chemistry).

If some one could please give me a link to a chemistry forums that is like PF i would greatly appreate it. Thank you

Ah...I know how you feel. PF just doesn't have the chemistry nature that you're searching for. It doesn't fuel you with the desire and passion to menstrate without warning...

And I present to you, on a golden platter:

All you'll ever need.
 
Great find, thunder. :biggrin:
 
You know what you should do.. get all those ppl over here! :)
 
Nah, it's cheaper to keep them where they are. If they have their own site, Greg doesn't have to pay for them :wink:
 
Hey, but that is why they can become PF contributors :)
 
So you want them to join you and give you money... are you a Jehovah's Witness by any chance? :biggrin:
 
Thank you

Thank for the nice chem forum, PF is nice but it needs more chemisty. Thank you again
 
No problem!

Actually, a few members from there are here. I don't think they're big posters though. They're chemistry folk. Not much going on here on the chemistry boards, nothing of their immediate interest anyway. This is still a great site though!
