AV Forums where truth goes to die. Toxic place full of woke loonies while the PC moderators are biased and dislike anyone critical of leftist politics.The forums are infested with cliques of snowflakes that will mass report you to get you banned if they disagree with you. There is no room for adult debate - if you don't play make believe and go along with their delusions, you'll be wiped out. I was branded a Troll and a racist because I disagreed with the group think of the main contributors, many who have recently migrated to AV Forums from the equally Stalinist echo chamber Digital Spy.

Holocaust Denial
Reviewed on 2021-04-19T21:05:39
The site used to be useful for technical questions.
However there has been a recent influx of users from other sites.
So expect Holocaust denial,Genocide denial, propoganda for dictatorships - when the mods supprt someone who claims North Korea is truly freely and the US is the Forth Reich something has gone wrong.
So did you know that all those mass graves and death camps were false news? People just died.
AV Forum supports and defends this view.
And best of all, threats of physical violence against other users that are just "banter" and not really threats.
Hopefully advertiers will realise.

Over moderated and toxic
Reviewed on 2021-02-09T19:35:39
AVF used to be a great site and resource for all things techy, unfortunately over the last ten years or so the place has become over moderated and it’s now extremely toxic,some moderators (and senior/admin mods) are just power hungry keyboard warriors with attitudes like the Gestapo and the SS, it’s their way or your out if they don’t agree with you on even the most trivial of things.
If it wasn’t for this then it could well be the friendly place that it used to be in the noughties, I still visit occasionally but the content I now look at is so small it’s hardly worth it as most sections of the site are moderated to the extreme, plus the sheer amount of adverts are so off putting these days.
Although I’ve been a member for a very long time now, I rarely visit, but felt the need to share my honest opinions as I’d read that the owner has asked forum members to post positive reviews here on TP, how desperate and low could one go.
That is all.

Well run and moderated forums with an amazing community atmosphere. The moderators are especiallyskilled at weeding out nonsense-spouting conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxxers who then come to Trustpilot to sulk like the massive snowflakes they are.

Been a AVF user for around 18 years and i visit several times per day. There are some great people there who are very helpful and interesting and some who like to moan and disrespect other members,the owner and mods and who are full of their self importance (and its nice to see so many on here leaving reviews too). Thankfully they are dispatched fairly quickly after so many warnings (which is great in my book).
They have some great posts not only from tech, but from any aspect of life, from love, to loss, to cars, to food, to buying/selling, to competitions, etc.
Well worth a visit if you are looking for a great place to visit, hang out and get advice or just some friendly banter.

Over modded.
Been a member for 2 decades.
Mods used to be quite casual, however bannings and postdeletions are commonplace.
Still a great place for av.
The general chat spin offs politics/covid sections are over modded strait jackets.

Some great posters but control freak mods

Some great posters, especially in the tv section.
To the person below, it is not the websites faultthat tv manufacturers no longer put any quality into tvs below 48 inches
Moderators do not allow free speach to a worrying degree.
