I read GameFAQs for a lot of Japan-only titles. The Gundam UC board right now is very helpful.

Yeah. GAF and my own.

I probably have some form of ADD. Addicted to forums.

GAF, shmups.org, gamefaqs and cave-stg on occasion, and I used to read the insomnia forums sometimes before it was for registered users only.

No.  GAF is a shithole wrapped in a wasteland where Amirox gets to be a mod. 

I occasionally read Qt3 forums but get tired of everyone there typing coherent and grammatically correct sentences really quick.

This thread seems awfully familiar...

Certain GAF threads, GameFAQs, Neo-Geo.com, and SRK.com every now and then.  I also frequent my buddy Leguna's tiny little forum, but that doesn't count.

Only thing I hit up regularly besides here is SA. Gamefaqs is useful for stuff nobody cares about anywhere else. Go to Talking Time once in a blue moon too.
Title: Re: do you read other gaming forum other than the bore?

I'm a member of SA, but never post there.  The way threads are organized just feels weird for some reason.

I haven't browsed SA in roughly 3-4 years, but I can't imagine it could be any worse than here, aka The Worst Possible Way To Organize a Forum to Encourage Discussion.  HURR HURR GUYS LET'S HAVE HUGE STUPID CATCH-ALL THREADS SO THAT ANY NEW DISCUSSION GETS LOST IN THE SHUFFLE.

I've discovered that aside from telling people what im playing, I dont feel like having a discussion over who is "right". So fuck it. The Bore gaming forum is plenty- NeoGAF has been like screaming in a hurricane for years now so wtf point is there in that? Plus banned lol.

well, the good thing about sa is that it has these numbers that appear any time you read a thread that show the amount of new posts that have showed up since you read it. so while it has catch all threads, it's easy to catch up.

I can't remember my last word on the subject, as I've been pretty Himu about it, but Triumph is telling the truff: catch all threads are turrible (save for GAF's quarantine thread).

I read gaf news threads but the discussions is like hammering nails into my brain. Also read a small Australian forum of mainly Xdude friends

Nope. I find it's healthier to limit my procrastination to one gaming website.

Yeah, obviously you want to keep the idiots who are "slumming" here for their two week ban confined to one thread to bitch about GAF, but having one thread for movie/music/tv/whatever discussion I feel just stifles new talk on shit.  I know for a fact I don't talk about any of that shit because I have zero desire to wade through a giant ass thread where probably 4/5 of the posts after mine aren't going to be related in any way.

But hey, apparently SHORT BUS: THE FORUM works for everyone else, so whatever.

I'm pretty much Bore exclusive. I will often read/contribute at Gamefaqs when I'm balls deep in a complex, current game. Eg. I hung out on the Dark Souls board when i was playing that hard
