By OneTwoTee Go To PostIf there's something you want to discuss and there isn't already a thread, feel free to make one. New thread rules here are much more relaxed than gaf and the only way it'll be shut down is if it's shitposting*.*Literal shitposting

Shit is eerie
Edit: Whilst I'm here, what's the deal with creating new threads here on a whim?
I notice that a lot of the chat just stays in the community threads (which is cool), but not sure if that's just a symptom of being smaller or by design.
Think it would be nice if some shit stayed in its lane, if you know what I mean? Like, we don't need 471 Trump threads a day when that shit can be done in communities and can be done in the Politics thread.
But for things like 'Justice League' or a new album or some shit, that feels like it should be somethign new.
By NovemberMagnus Go To PostI checked out his posts, he's posting about Fiction and how right he was and how he fought against the echo chamber and that's why he got demodded and omg how fucking dense can you beWhich thread?
By reKon Go To PostI got access to the GAF discord, but I'm trying to see if get a link that I can provide here (through PM). The was one user doing this on the waypoint forums.
I wanted to request one as well, but the thread was locked and I can not message him

I'd like the link if you don't mind. Thanks
By livefromkyoto Go To PostI will never not love the fact that Halloween Kyle Lowry is the SLAENT mascot.You're welcome
By reKon Go To PostI got access to the GAF discord, but I'm trying to see if get a link that I can provide here (through PM). The was one user doing this on the waypoint forums.Would be appreciated, if only to keep in contact with good people, and hopefully invite them here.

By RATHasReturned Go To PostJeff Cannata's "Newest Latest Best" discussed the NeoGaf situation. The page hasn't updated, https://anchor.fm/s/98f0bc, but the RSS has.
Can't listen right now but is it bad? I remember him posting there for about a week before it tore him down. He always seems like a super positive guy and it just instantly turned into him trying to fight off trolls.
By Rahxephon91 Go To PostThe OT of GAF was the worst of outrage culture.
OT could be a mess (especially in topics about BLM/black folks in general, diversity & representation stuff were generally awful for years there) but they still fared far better than anything in gaming side
you had sargon/etc apologists on there, and god forbid anita or a strong female in gaming get namedropped, it'd bring out the crazies
By Hammer24 Go To PostRaises hand.Haven't seen Torro and Brot here, but is Oti save within the discord channel?
Irmi, Torro and Brot also made the jump.
Kenzo send me a link yesterday.
By n8 dogg Go To PostThink it would be nice if some shit stayed in its lane, if you know what I mean? Like, we don't need 471 Trump threads a day when that shit can be done in communities and can be done in the Politics thread.Agree with all this.

Also n8, I read your tag as not ears only cum
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI'd love to make a GT Sports thread, but I'm probably one of 5 people playing in this forum.
I have it but haven't played much, like 3-4 hours ?

By Raging GAFfot Go To PostI went over to see Opiate's actual posts, he posted a single sentence defending his position, not mentioning Fiction, saying that he didn't think someone who went through child abuse could respond reasonably to any discussion on the topic, but that he accepted people might think differently. He didn't really say anything about fighting against echo chambers.
Opiate was a poster who could be way too emotionally disconnected and 'rational', but apart from that was a generally intelligent poster and I don't know why he attracts such ire whenever his name is mentioned. It should be obvious to anyone that the pedophilia accusations were baseless if you spend even a moment to think about it.
By OneTwoTee Go To PostAgree with all this.
Also n8, I read your tag as not ears only cum
maybe that is what it says
By Jencks Go To PostWho originally owned Gaming-Age forum? Is it even possible that it could come back as purely Gaming Age, assuming EL sells it to them? Would that even a good thing? I'm relatively new ( compared to how long GAF was around), so I'm just wondering if such a thing is possible.
As someone mentioned, the Gaming Age website originally started in the mid 90s by Jim C, and a VBulletin forum came with it shortly after. The forum had a slight following that was pretty dedicated. It became known for its massive thread blow ups and backfires, larger than life personalities, and later on industry insiders. I don't know if GA was actually sold to IGN, or if it became a primary affiliate. But Jim sold the forum to fuckface. Jim and I had a bit of laugh about this last night on FB...he's as shocked by this as we all are.
Also, I can with confidence say Tyler was never offered $10M or $2M for the forum - or whatever figure that's been thrown around. There were suitors (some of which I was familiar with), but not with those sums. That's just him inflating his ego and trying to show how righteous he was in wanting to preserve the forum.
Too many people took the bait.
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI'd love to make a GT Sports thread, but I'm probably one of 5 people playing in this forum.No harm in making one m8. You'll get more people playing the game in there rather than posting about it in one of the community threads.
By reKon Go To PostI got access to the GAF discord, but I'm trying to see if get a link that I can provide here (through PM). The was one user doing this on the waypoint forums.If anything comes from this, I'd love a link thanks!
By Lupercal Go To PostI have it but haven't played much, like 3-4 hours ?I've played like, 20 hours already!
12 hours of it was 6 hours of endurance race twice with a rubberbanded controller for mileage points.
By Diprosalic Go To PostI mean reilo works full time and made this shit from scratch.It wasn't just me though, none of this wouldn't have been possible without Sharp's expertise in writing the amazingly performant database infrastructure.
I'm also looking for contributors as well since he's out getting his PHD. I got Kibner on board already, so if anyone knows Python, React and Postgres, LMK!
By Ravensmash Go To PostMobile?Create all the threads you'd like. Community started much smaller and fewer threads worked better. More people here now so more threads are needed to keep conversations flowing.

By doctorwashington Go To PostI lurked on GAF for the past five years or so, checking in for rumors and leaks. There was some really cool stuff on there sometimes. But man…reading about what happened is really sad. It wasn't always the best place around, but at least I felt like it was better than the constant poop-storm of reddit. Oh well.
Hey everybody!
Agreed, it was nice to have a site that didn’t devolve into GG trolling and the likes. I’ll miss the E3 threads and the Splatoon community.
By rekameohs Go To PostMiiverse outlasted GAFmiiverse will outlast us all
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI have no problems with most of Crossing Eden's posts, but his opinions where if a female character even shows a bit of skin is sexualised annoys the hell out of me.Not against people coming here - he'll just have to tone down his whole crusader shtick. I am not a gatekeeper so who am I to dictate.
Well the Playstation Conference is coming up on the 30th October, I'll create a thread around 28th so we can discuss how Sony didn't announce any new games during the stream.
By n8 dogg Go To PostThink it would be nice if some shit stayed in its lane, if you know what I mean? Like, we don't need 471 Trump threads a day when that shit can be done in communities and can be done in the Politics thread.I agree with this. If nobody does I'll make a Trump Shit |OT| to cut the cheap off the pages. A lot of the time if felt like the most minor thing would get its own thread. While normally it would be big news for any other peraon, this is trump we're talking about and his bullshit is endless.
But for things like 'Justice League' or a new album or some shit, that feels like it should be somethign new.
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI'd love to make a GT Sports thread, but I'm probably one of 5 people playing in this forum.
Make it, fam. You don't have to make it all nutty and detailed like how they did in GAF. Start it up. I'll be picking mine up today

that was my career once but i switched because i didn't like it anymore.
By NexusCell Go To PostI'm just stuck wondering where all the Comic-GAF peeps went to. Managed to get into the FGC-GAF and I'm still in the BDO-GAF discord at leastsome of us are here (like me and jc). rest is either twitter or discord. I can get an invite for you if you want in. I let everyone know this is a good site if they want to join a new forum
By Angelus Errare Go To PostMans made a tweet saying NeoGAF stands with the Paris Accords. Like the ego you gotta have

Unless he chokes on a cheeto and dies, I'm tired of seeing a million Trump threads. The guy is a vile sack of shit, we know. We should only have them when a call to action is require (i.e. peaceful march or calls)
By reilo Go To PostIt wasn't just me though, none of this wouldn't have been possible without Sharp's expertise in writing the amazingly performant database infrastructure.We need to get programming GAF here. I'm a student again so I'd be useless.

Edit: that just reminded me I know of GAF dev on github I'll reach out.

By IrishNinja Go To Posti really can't fuck with twitter today, the amount of shitheel gg's celebrating this is the worst. evilore really alamo drafthouse'd a solid spot.
ive found the yakuza GAF discord so that's cool, just need to find gaf-hop, jazz-hop, retro-GAF & the BCT and that's like 90% of what i liked
every time ive tried to get into it, that's been my experience, full stop
It's the bnet off topics forums circa 2007.
Shitheads get made fun of but it's definitely not a good place for deep conversation. It's shallow and empty.
By John Rabbit Go To PostAngelus Errare being here means I'm probably staying.
But you're supposed to hate him..
By Red Blaster Go To Postwait reallyYeah, I think he even had a big post about it pinned on Off-Topic for a few weeks. It was ridiculous.
lmao
Can someone explain discord to me? Seems like Skype/slack, not sure how that's replacing a message board
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostMake it, fam. You don't have to make it all nutty and detailed like how they did in GAF. Start it up. I'll be picking mine up todayI'll make one in the afternoon!
It's already 3am here
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI hope Slaent stands with the Geneva Convention.It just gets in the way of small business owners
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI hope Slaent stands with the Geneva Convention.
Clearly not,
I mean have you seen the way we treat Lawbreakers?
