By Huw_Dawson Go To PostI'll spam at the various FGC peeps on Twitter once the proper GAF replacement is up and it is clear where that new replacement is. Either Resetage or here or some other place.
Not some random zetaboard clone.
im in the Street Fighter V GAF discord....im going through the server list....what do you need, if i can get in....I'll help you
By Storm Chamber Go To PostBruh…you made an account the same day you got banned and posted in that very thread for the same reasons you're outlining in this post.Ouch.
How much self-awareness do ya'll lack? lmao
By Sblargh Go To PostIt is a bit hard to get in the "make a thread" mindset. I never did an OT on GAF. It was just a fact of life that they existed somehow.True dat Hahaha. I think it will be easier in time when there's nothing else to discuss here. We're just going past the shock stage.
Chiming in here as a previous Gaffer, sucks but hey when you get shit like that levelled at you your business suffers. I'm just happy I've been able to stumble on Slaent as this website is a dream in comparison to pretty much every other gaming site I've been on. Now all we need is AusSlaent and we are gravy.
By Altazor12 Go To Posta month from now, on GAF 2.0:
"My girlfriend left me for another guy and I'm devastated"
Another thread at the same time
"Girl saw me naked, whined about it on facebook, now I lost my job :("
By Altazor12 Go To Postthe "lack of social awareness" and the "why the fuck are you not going to a doctor now?" ones were always hilarious.The dude that walked out before an interview because he showed up an hour early and at ten till he was still waiting was great too. Except for the fact the dude needed a job and shit on them when they called him to ask where he was for his interview.
Like the one with the guy who quit his job after 2.5 hours.

Exactly.
Or the guy who walked out of waiting for an interview because they "made him wait too long."
EDIT: Beaten. Yeah, that was a laugh.

Honestly I'd be fine just getting in the SFV GAF Discord so I can at least see where the FGC heads are going.
Maybe the new site will allow FGC Weekly threads to come back.
I’m really curious to see if our accounts and posts will be preserved. At the very least if NeoGAF comes back I’d like to be given the option to permanently delete my account.

I'll try to bring such threads to this new site.
By Storm Chamber Go To PostBruh…you made an account the same day you got banned and posted in that very thread for the same reasons you're outlining in this post.Nigga I know what I was doin, while you was dippin in and out of the BCT and trollin back to the Bore
How much self-awareness do ya'll lack? lmao
I posted cause I wanted to vent and I ain't been back since, but whatevas it cool
By CoolestSpot Go To PostThere's a lot to take in here. I'm gonna go take my vanilla ass in the corner and just watch this.
lmao this is the best response.
By CoolestSpot Go To PostI'll try to bring such threads to this new site.Oh gawd lol..
GAF is likely toast unless Evilore makes the decision to transfer ownership of the business to Grompf so the database can be mined.
Assume GAF is dead for good. Like tears in rain.

By Addi Go To PostAnother thread at the same time
"Girl saw me naked, whined about it on facebook, now I lost my job :("
"Girl saw me naked, I got an erection, and she started to suck on it... and I didn't know what to do, so I ran away and came here to post about it on GAF. What should I do?"
By Altazor12 Go To Postthe "lack of social awareness" and the "why the fuck are you not going to a doctor now?" ones were always hilarious.He quit the job his mom struggled to get him because she was tired of having him around in the house.
Like the one with the guy who quit his job after 2.5 hours.
And then he made a thread thinking he was going to be praised for it. Yeah, gaf was alright sometimes.

By EarthBound64 Go To PostExactly.

LMAO, I forgot about that one but now that both of you mentioned it... fucking lol

My thoughts as well.

sent you the link Dawson....bring them home!
The visual design of this site is cool but feature-wise it is missing quite a few things to be a community oriented forum. Conversations are hard to start and grow without stuff like a subscription page, notifications, and other common forum features.
One thing we'll never see again in all of it's humor were the various "basic hygiene" threads. They were always eye opening on just how dirty some folks lived.
Give it time, this forum was built from scratch by one person and is still very much a work in progress.

By Angelus Errare Go To PostAlso the official name of that GAF replacement will be called "ResetEra".
By Fenderputty Go To PostYuck lol
Oh goddammit dude
Yuck is right
By inky Go To PostHe quit the job his mom struggled to get him because she was tired of having him around in the house.
And then he made a thread thinking he was going to be praised for it. Yeah, gaf was alright sometimes.
That was always the best part - the continued cognitive dissonance / complete lack of awareness of the people posting, who posted it thinking that they did the right thing, or were in the right, or that it was a legitimate issue, etc.
By Jencks Go To PostWho could forget the "A RIMJOB FOR GOOD MEASURE?" thread. Shit was legendary.
That and "fancy seeing some more pictures of people's dicks?" made me laugh for minutes
How can you have a discord with god knows how many people and have a consensus on the name "ResetEra"
Man it’s at least good to know that some of GAFs more crazy moments were archived somewhere. AlexMogil ambien thread, ashodin stringing along everyone meeting some girl from a dating site to find out it was him all along. RawNuts confrontation with his scumbag friend. Ah, the memories.
By Papercuts Go To PostHow can you have a discord with god knows how many people and have a consensus on the name "ResetEra"
Muting people who disagree?
By viciousds Go To Postnah, best thread by far

Some say one can still detect the waves throughout the cosmos.
By LionPride Go To PostNigga I know what I was doin, while you was dippin in and out of the BCT and trollin back to the BoreSee, see, it's cool when I do it fellas.
I posted cause I wanted to vent and I ain't been back since, but whatevas it cool

BCT was low-key best OT. And yes, I'm a white male lurking in BCT. It was Gaf's hidden treasure.
the guy who said he was a trucker and lost track of his wife and child only to be told to go to the police and then detective gaf found out he made it all up
By Angelus Errare Go To PostOne thing we'll never see again in all of it's humor were the various "basic hygiene" threads. They were always eye opening on just how dirty some folks lived.Like the guy not understanding why someone would want room service in his hotel, then explaining that you don't really need to change your sheets often, once a month is kind of a lot?
Give it time, this forum was built from scratch by one person and is still very much a work in progress.
Yeah, there were some people that made me glad I only "knew" them from online, wouldn't want to have to work with some of those people.
They should call it GEF, Gaming Era Forum, and there would be endless discussions on whether it's pronounced Gueff or Jeff.
Anyone heard from kirblar or God's Beard or Angry Grimace? Need to know where MagicGAF lands.
What a disaster :(
What a disaster :(
By DY_nasty Go To PostYal can leave the bore stuff alone. Its done, really.
If you think that community is for you or want to give it a shot, by all means go check it out.
But pages talking about it isn't worth it imo
I know it's for me...I've been on there for like 11 years now. It has some good people. I will never get the hate for other communities, but whatever.

Jiff
By Shadownet Go To PostSo is it pronounce Slant? Or Sla-ent?Ampers
Do we call people slanters?

What a disaster :(
By Violet_0 Go To Postgone, it's only me now and you need to learn to deal with itI didn't post much, but I'm here too.
By noquarter Go To PostI didn't post much, but I'm here too.
We can fix that.
So, apparently I was one of the few Gaffers that didn't know a former mod was semi-recently charged with child pornography and GAF was scrubbing threads/posts related to the incident off the forum. WTF
A videogame forum definitely has young kids there and a fucking former mod had access to private DMs, conversations, etc. And Fvilore and the rest of the mods kept this quiet from the community? Fuck all of them.
