Amirite
Reviews and Complaints
Amirite.Com, everything you've read here is true.
My husband told me about this site. I thought I'd try it out.
Signed up, got the happy welcoming email, then was deactivated with the reason being "you may only have one account". Well, I only HAD the one account, but I told my husband about this and he found some interesting information (see attached photos). Computers connected to the Internet must speak the "Internet language" called the "Internet Protocol" or simply "IP." Each computer is assigned a unique address somewhat similar to a street address or telephone number. Under the current system there are four numbers that range from 0 to 255 (Example: 206.156.18.122).
This means 300 people at a library in Wisconsin all have the same IP address. Doesn't mean it's one person that tried to sign up 300 times. When I emailed them that I did only have one account, they (the website that goes to great lengths to hide it's ownership and origin) demanded sensitive personal information from me. I have no idea who these people are so I'm not about to send them information which can be used for identity theft.
I've read through the reviews of this site, I've read many of the comments ON the site in question (over my husband's shoulder), and I've made my own mind up. The site is unprofessional at best and a hot mess at worst.
Do not sign up for this site. I really can't stress that strongly enough.
- I liked the idea of the website
- Double standards when enforcing site rules
- Moderation
- Strange policies and enforcement
Preferred solution: Change their policies on dealing with new users for the site. Do NOT base everything solely on ip address. (This may be a shock but many people only have 1 computer in their home but several in that home may sign up for 1 website)
New users need NOT apply!
A friend had invited me to check out the site and my stay was brief, as was his.
This is a very hostile environment from the first time logging in until I decided to leave. There seems to be a lot of fighting with the moderators with each other about new members. Some moderators seem welcoming, others not so.
I was appalled at what hostility is allowed from some of the other members in how new people are treated. They are not only accused of being other former members, they are being told to leave! None of these new members have said or done anything to warrant this sort of harassment.
I took a screenshot at what is being posted today and no administrator is removing it. See below;
- Page layout
- Moderators
- Psychotic members
- Drama
Preferred solution: Warning to others to not engage
Amirite.com and the ones that have destroyed it. Check out the site and decide for yourself.
- Easy to use features
- Group of about 10 that run the place and run people off
- Biased moderation
- Double standards when enforcing site rules
Amirite.com is dead in the water. Immature SodaHead crybabies killed it the same as they did Sodahead.
First, I am an unhappy, but active member in good standing. This must be said.
It has been said on this site that Amirite moderators are unfair, biased, and extremely vindictive. All this is 100% true, and they have finally hung themselves. StarzAbove, Platinum (JD), Tiffanee, Zonkeyballs, Darkest Serenity, Markymark, and a few others have been discouraging new members from posting new ideas and opinions for over a year, and it's come home to roost. Posts from new members are being removed, and new member comments are scrutinized as socks or trolls.
Now this same gaggle of sodajerks are complaining that the site is dead, and making silly posts of desperation, while kissing up to two new moderators. New members can't post, so they quit or don't join. Amirite membership consists of about 20 members, and hundreds of deactivated accounts. Why is the site dead?
Ask Serenity and her sodajerks. Keep removing posts because StarzAbove and Tiffanee are "offended", and keep deactivating new members for being trolls.
Good job, SER ... LOLZ!!

Verified ReviewerI'm still pretty happy with the site - third time around.
I think Amirite is a good site, judge for yourself
Strange Clique
I never felt welcomed there. Almost immediately, I had two moderators following me around, making impolite comments to mine. They acted like they knew me, but they don't.
In general, they treat any new arrival as an old disbanded member, suspicious and rude towards anything you participate in if it's not a generic question.
There are some nice members there, but I see them often fighting an uphill battle. One particular moderator that goes by the name of Platinum is especially abusive. I am surprised these members stay although they seem to be able to fight him back with a cool head and fact.
I have seen some newer members employ the same strategy, but then they suddenly disappear after it becomes evident they were either deactivated or left willingly.
The strangest part of the whole site which is not evident immediately is some of the posts become these watering holes for the regulars to dis any member they dislike. I stay off those posts, but they are disturbing. They have innocent titles and they are buried in the rest of the light-hearted stuff, but it's there. The moderators often comment on these in an effort to fan a flame instead of disperse it.
It's obvious the moderators have a tight clique they protect, while abusing others.
Whatever is going on there, there are serious grudges happening. It seems to involve other members and another site. It makes you wonder why anyone would spend so much time hating on others they only know from the internet.
- Few other members
- Drama
- Moderators
- No response to complaints by upper management

Verified ReviewerI will take the dive, even though I cannot swim. Make me a bloody mod.
I don't know. All this hatred towards our beloved website, just because people have different opinions and then there is this silly site, where everything can be told anonymously, without any sense of responsibility behind the words.
Words, that can be hurtful, even when they may seem truthful to those writing them at the moment, but it's not just that. It's more than just a site. It's the whole culture of hatred. Why do we need to hate something so much, that we need to express our hatred against each other so strongly?
Is it something I did? Is it something somebody else did? Or is it, maybe, perhaps, merely something that you don't like about yourself and you need to burst at some direction and what could be a better target than a website you - yourself - chose to get interactive with, in the first place. It's not like we made you to join in.
You chose it. If you choose something, then be a proper human being and live with the choice. Having a "crying a river" moment afterwards is not going to do you any silly favors, is it?
If the blue one agrees to make me a mod, I will do my best to be unbiased. I will have my attitude and that should be taken for certainty, you freakin' tw@s.
Post only milktoast questions on Amirite or Platinum will have you banned.
- Double standards when enforcing site rules
Malware, viruses, biased moderation, misogyny, lies, hate, invasion of privacy = Amirite.
Amirite super moderators and administration violate your supposed privacy. They go into your private messages and your private pages to find reasons to deactivate your account.
They did it to me and a few others I know. If you are a fool and go on Amirite, do NOT send PM's as they are read by James and Darkest Serenity. I was ordered by Darkest Serenity to reveal my private pages or be deactivated. That's why I am deactivated.
Also, if Platinum or StarzAbove don't like you, you are gone. StarzAbove is the biggest liar on the internet, and Platinum bullies women until they leave the site. I also got an "open candy" virus from Amirite by accidentally clicking one of their shifting advertisements.
It is unavoidable unless, of course, you never visit the site. Amirite is loaded with malware.
Amirite.com - Another example of why members leave.
http://www.amirite.com/817206-im-appalled-by-some-of-downright-rude-insensitive-comments-on-here-whatever-happened-to-respect Click on the link above. Take a look and you will see the same members whiny, *** and lying about other members behavior.
Metal_god14 aka Dennis Manning, MonaLea, StarzAbove and Tifannee on this post, but on other posts you'll also see Sofia, TomboyJanet and Random Thoughts. Major troublemakers and MANY have left Amirite due to them. Once again Darkest_Serenity friends (listed above) get to post things that would cause one to not join or leave Amirite.
This post (and many more they post) is breaking the TOS rules, but allowed to stay up because they are friends of the super mod Darkest_Serenity. BIAS MODERATION ON AMIRITE, ALL THE TIME!

AMIRITE.COM : "HOSTILE, TOXIC, ABUSIVE, AND NASTY". THEIR OWN MEMBERS SAY IT EVERY DAY. THEY SAID THE SAME THING ABOUT SODAHEAD. LET'S EXAMINE WHY, SHALL WE?
Everyday, I see some former Sodahead people complaining about how ugly and combative Sodahead was. Namely, MonaLea, Janny Babe, Tiffatty, StarzAbove, JD, and Serenity.
The same people (MonaLea, Janny Babe, Tiffatty, StarzAbove) are also complaining how ugly Amirite.com has become. Anyone see a common denominator? Let us examine the TIME LINE: Sodahead shuts down because of toxic, nasty and abusive members, namely, MonaLea, Tiffatty, Janny Babe, StarzAbove, JD, and Serenity) . Meanwhile, Amirite is a nice site with lots of teenagers having fun.
Disgruntled Sodaheaders ( MonaLea, Tiffatty, Janny Babe, StarzAbove, JD, and Serenity) migrate and join Amirite. Now the former Sodaheaders are complaining that Amirite has become toxic, nasty, and abusive.
Hmmmmm... 2+2 = ?
AMIRITE: SHUT UP ALREADY - MONALEA, STARZABOVE AND TIFFANEE
IF ONLY AMIRITE WOULD BAN THESE THREE NONSTOP COMPLAINERS. POST AFTER POST, PAGES AFTER PAGES OF COMPLAINING ABOUT ALMOST EVERYONE ON THAT WEBSITE.
THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT OTHER MEMBERS NOT POSTING THINGS, THEN THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT WHAT OTHER MEMBERS POST. NEVER HAPPY! IT'S ALL ABOUT THEIR SAD LIVES, ~~~SEX~~~, DEPRESSION, HOW THEY HATE LIFE AND MEN, IM A LESBIAN BI OR WHATEVER AND HATES OTHERS THAT ARE STRAIGHT. THESE THREE NEED TO BUY THEM SOME COLORING BOOKS, CRAYONS AND A TEDDY BEAR AND GO HIDE IN THEIR SAFE PLACE.
MAJOR DEBBIE DOWNERS. NO WONDER WE CAIN'T GET NEW MEMBERS TO JOIN OR IF THEY DO THEY LEAVE SHORTLY AFTER. THAT SITE USE TO BE FUN WITH GAMES QUOTES JOKES MUSIC QUIZZES. NOW IT'S MOSTLY DEPRESSING AND DEAD.
DO US HAPPY MEMBERS A HUGE FAVOR, TAKE YOUR HATE, GOSSIP, LIES *** AND COMPLAINING TO ANOTHER WEBSITE. GROW UP LITTLE GIRLS! BAD FOR AMIRITE THAT THE CURRENT SUPERMOD LETS THIS GO ON. ALMOST TWO YEARS SHE AND HER BEST FRIEND MOD JOHN HAVE DESTROYED THAT SITE.
GET RID OF ALL OF THEM AND MANY WOULD COME BACK. IT IS A VERY NICE FEATURE FRIENDLY SITE TO USE. NICELY DESIGNED. TOO BAD THE ABOVE MEMBERS AND MODS HAVE RUN OFF SO MANY.
WHAT A SHAME THIS IS ALLOWED.
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE OWNER OF THAT SITE? MAYBE THEY COULD HELP RID US OF THESE BAD MEMBERS AND MODS THAT KEEP OTHERS FROM JOINING.
- Easy to use features
- Biased moderation
- Horrible moderation
- No response to complaints by upper management
Knock it OFF!
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution

I was on that site, stalked and harassed a lot of people, was permanently banned. Broke all the rules to see if I could get away with it.
I have made a lot of sock accounts but Serenity catches me every time.
But I won't give up. The can't keep me away.
People know they can only have only one account, but they break the rules, get deactivated for good reason and come here and complain! Such babies. Quite whining and accept that you did wrong.
Sorry, but that kind of a technical glitch is not the website's fault. It's simply how the Hinternet is constructed.
It's called sub networks, which in certain cases cause problems, such as this. Another thing is using an Onion network, such as Tor, but in this case it's simply because there's a sub network behind NAT (Native Address Translation), which hides that part of the network behind a firewall. In usual terms, this is called "good". In this case, you used a public interface, which is hidden - this is called "good" - by they way - behind a NAT.
It has nothing to do with the bloody site itself.
"Do not sign up for this site.I really can't stress that strongly enough." Yeah, right. Silly.
ZonkeyBalls
Here's a question, Zonkey. If you aren't doing anything nefarious, why would you NEED to hide your IP address?
It's NOT a technical glitch, it rhymes with glitch but it sure as *** isn't technical.
And if it's ANY kind of glitch, why are the users expected to suffer under the brunt of it?
The point is (whether active or not) there are obviously multiple accounts shown for the same person(s). I'm sure there are more.
One of the people shown had multiple accounts and is still doing well on the site (right, Darkest Serenity?).
Others, like myself, have and have only had; a single account, yet were suspended/deactivated for the incorrect claim of our having multiple accounts.
Why is Markymark, aka Synyster, aka Synyster Gates, allowed multiple accounts on Amirite?
According to my husband (who knows much more about this site than I), you are allowed to change your user name but the account will stay the same.
That is not the same as having multiple accounts. If you search for MarkyMark on the site, he's not there, because he has been replaced by Synyster.
BUT, if you look at the attached screen shots here, you'll see multiple accounts by users who are still in good standing (while some of us are thrown off having only had one account).
But if you look at "Synyster Gates", it is a brand new account. If he deactivated the old account, after 2 name changes, it is still an account.
It's a "suspended" account, but still an account. That's how they justify deactivating SOME people for "multiple accounts". Deactivated, suspended temporary or permanent, it's still an account. Same with Chuck Tom and "Bub".
Multiple accounts.
Tiff has dozens. It's all selective.
Absolutely, as was my point with this review.
The Rogue guy is not a member in good standing. His IP has been banned.
He can't log on. Show me his active profile.
