i want to be cool, i am purple you know
i am iconic, for some reason :o
my avatar has cum drooling off his lip, lol
-
No posting limit is cool, and we can say the F WORD. Also watched Shaun of the Dead again on Thursday, good movie lol!
-
I cried when they shot the mom. ;_;
-
I dunno... I just joined 'cus Willco told me to... so I know it must be cool already! <3 Will~
These smileys kind of suck though. =x
-
Its free dont bitch!
-
:D
I don't even know what you said, MAF. I think smilies will be cloudwalking and I's next project.
-
I leave it to you brave troopers. Im just here to bring justice to the wastelands.
-
I can change the smileys extrememly easily. Willco, pick some everyone will like!
-
I guess ones not so creepy, eh?
-
:lol
-
Yeah, we should probably make that work as an emoticon. Sorry, Bacon! Growing pains and all.
-
Bitches love smileys. ::)
-
Bitches love smileys. ::)
And she quotes Boondocks!
-
Ditching the racism rule maybe? Everybody loves racism :-X
-
WhiteFu, there's a difference betwee blue comedy and hate speech. Here you go:
ACCEPTABLE: "Oh those zany muslims!"
BANNABLE: "Fuck those sandniggers!"
If you absolutely need to post the former, then OA is the place for you, but for a lot of people, that isn't the most comfortable place to post. I don't think we're trying to be OA or want to even try. Just enjoy yourself. Post about videogames and wrestling and whatever you want.

Yes, there are no evilbores lol am i rite?

lolz u am rite

Fuck
No censors ftw
-
So we can post EGM scans?
-
I appreciate the tag, shadowy stranger! ;D
-
Swearing but lack of pron=meh.
But it's the american way after all.
-
You're welcome, Shake!
I don't see why not, Bacon. Until I hear otherwise, I can only assume with my lack of knowledge on the legal system that such scans are qualified under fair use.
-
;)
And what's this about me being TBS' white lovechild?! >:(
-
I don't think it will. Seems stupid. What made this happen?
-
Swearing but lack of pron=meh.
Lack of pron is good. No one wants to see your viking cock.
-
hmm can we give impressions of pirated games?

For the original question: When Does This Forum Get Cool?
It doesn't get cool, it didnt start cool. How well a forum does is largely dictated by its community. If you guys are lame and post lame topics, it will never be cool. There is no amount of moderation in the world I could impose that could save it from the community at large creating a giant shit pile and rolling around in it.
The best we can do is try to let good people in. If we fail, and its possible we already have, this forum will suck.
-
i think you fucking suck
-
dont strain yourself
-
Forum will get cool in like an hour.
-

Okay, but what freedoms do we have to be cool? GAF has the dickheaded elitists and fanboys that feel great bullshitting around. OA has the freedom to say what you want so if somebody is being an elitist or fanbody you can tell him to go fuck himself and anything. What can't we do that we would normally do at other forums?
-
I think the best description is that its GAF without the restrictions, but OA without the obscene bullshit and racism. If you want to go full out and deal with that shit, by all means, go ahead.
-
I agree Willco. There's a thread for rules at the top, but my moderation rules which do follow the overall rules are simple:
No blatant racism
Pedophelia and Furries are NOT cool and will not be entertained.
You can say what you want about the moderation. You can call me a dumbfuck, you can say my taste in anything is complete shit, but the instant it affects the experience of other members, the situation will be moderated. (ie thread spamming, things like that)
Porn pics arent allowed. You can find porn on google, google is better at finding you porn.
Personal Attacks are not allowed. No, you can still call someone fuckhead and tell them to shut their traps, but the instant you are assaulting anything beyond this forum the situation will be moderated.
You cannot bash GAF or OA here, period. That's not what this place is for.
Sure this place will probably never get bigger than GAF, and may just be on par with OA, but this was never about grand plans. Its about having a place we can say the word FUCK and not worried about sponsors who spam us with SHOULD NICK GET HALF or JOKE A DAY beating up the admin and forcing censor.
-
Okay, but I never liked GAF and OA is simple because of that.
-
Well, this already seems fucking distinguished mentally-challenged. Willco & MAF's new forum? Yeah, seems shite.
LOL at you knuckledraggers getting ran off of GAf. bububu "it's a private forum" :D
-
Am Nintendo: I understand that, and you do get the freedom to pick where youre going to be, but I dont think extremes are the way to run a forum that allows interesting discussion.
-

Welcome aboard! And - hey - for the record, I'm unbanned there. I did miss you, Corny.
-
Racism is only funny/cute when you're a overprivileged dumbfuck teenboy male. As an adult, I know that if I want my patience for unbridled and self-absorbed stupidity tested, I can go hang out at the day care.
-
Saint Cornelius! C'mere, you fat, self-loathing, unemployable poseur and gimme a hug! I've missed you!
-
Willco, you're under the same lil' leash that you used to tease other fuckers for being under at GAf - thus the new forum!
"evilbore" is crazy lame though, can't you dumb dorks come up with something better? internet personalities, unite!
Drinky: unemployable? ???
-
Unemployable! :o
-
Well it was either evilbore or Whiteman's suggestion of TouchMyTooter which I didnt like at all.
-

It's not an extreme child.

The actual racists shut up so they don't seem racist. Occasionally somebody says a slur to make themselves look stupid. Nobody tries to deharmonize anything when they say something racist.
-
stop me if you've heard this one before
but you should ban white man
-
Jesus, I'd rather listen to Reirom's non-sequitors than Drinky's. Suck my unemployable johnson, Doug!
-
ok, i'm here. this forum just got cool, trigger. ;)
wow, OAer's get a little news-bit reminding us of how conniving we are. hahah, it's like Israel all over again. :'(
-
Willco, you're under the same lil' leash that you used to tease other fuckers for being under at GAf - thus the new forum!
Hey, it was either this or going to the gym, and I opted for the more strenuous choice.
-
Non-sequiturs, Mister. Don't stretch yourself to compete with the best, dawg!
Now let's be the best of friends and I'll teach you a thing or two :-*
-
OA is totally an extreme, dont be a stupid.
-
MY two honest problems: Lack of fast reply is lame. Loading a whole new page to reply equals 1990's.
Better smilies please.
-
Viz, we're working on the smilies. We'll have them fixed soon. Fast reply is a neat addition to OA, but I'm not sure how we'll implement that here. I'll ask cloudwalking. These kind of comments and suggestions should be directed to her FAQ at the top of the forum.
-
OA is totally an extreme, dont be a stupid.
Morally, yes. Not anymore then GAF. People don't have an act that they only follow on OA. You think people feel affection towards racism?
-
So if they don't have sympathies towards it, why do they indulge in it?
Really, do we NEED to hear shrill little libertarian freshmen shouting "distinguished black fellow" and giggling into the backs of their hammy white hands?
-
I dont need to hear it, and thanks to this forum won't have to.
-

I think to make themselves look stupid or if they're actually racist to occasionally make the other guy look stupid but they usually don't argue about politics or anything people might actually consider worth argueing. I don't want racism back. I want personal attacks back. If somebody listens to Tool then you want to insult him.

Nobody is stopping you from saying, "Fuck Tool you butt humper, Tool is only listened to be pig fuckers!"
We will stop you from saying, "Hey [enter poster's real name], I'm going to travel to you [real address] and fuck your mom's skull and pee in your father's mouth you asshole. I'll fucking cram a Tool CD up your ass and light you on fire!"
One is clearly over the line.
-
I love it when someone makes a new forum, and just to reiterate a few of the suggestions already made, FastReply and More Smiles = your forum gets cool B)
-
You can make personal attacks as long as they're relevant to the matter at hand. On the other hand, I imagine that if you start pursuing someone -- like, say, Jotaro -- across multiple threads and turning each conversation into a discussion about him you'll find your mouth pressed to moderator ass real quick-like. The rest of us shouldn't have to endure petty forum vendettas.
-
I want the OA smilies. We MUST have hippolol. MUST.
-
You can call me a dumbfuck,
Dumbfuck.
-
In light of Clerks 2, are we still considering porchmonkey as a racial slur?
-
I'd love to be a porch monkey. If it wasn't raining, I'd be one right now.

Okay, but you're providing a lot of material. I don't want to attack somebody's vanity, I want to attackt they're pride. I'll try though.
-
Last I checked, vanity *is* pride. If this is the caliber of attack we'll be seeing from you -- ill-conceived and humorless -- then you're not gonna be long for this business.
-
I want the OA smilies. We MUST have hippolol. MUST.
I hate hippolol. >:(
-
Whats wrong with hippolol?
-
CG: Fuck you, sugar tits. Hippolol is sublime. It's the Internet codified in under 90K.
-

People feel vanity without accomplishing something and feel pride after accomplishing something. Even for an asshole you bitch a lot.
-
The creepiest smilie is the smiling face, because people on forums are rarely candidly happy when they use it. It does not feel natural.
Like I remember Gigmonger and Hans using it to freak people out... lol
-
I want the OA smilies. We MUST have hippolol. MUST.
You like something I created? :'(
-
luciverse... want to create a variant for us?
-
Variant? I did not draw it. I found it on the cover of an obsure christmas album.

Okay. Do you think that's what I meant?
-
I don't want to have anyone violate any evilbore ToS rules, so please, be gentle - but why the mass exodus of beloved GAffer personalities to this place?
-
am nintenho, I have no idea what you meant -- I'm assuming that English is your nth (where n is a sufficiently large integer) language and that you're actually talking about some potato dish or the best way to shove a whole bag of crack rock up your anus. I'm just rollin' with the flow, duder.
Cornelius, my man, we came here for the same reason you fled squealing to Opa-Age(s) back in the day -- we all either got banned or were frustrated with the moderation (or both) at That Other Forum. Is this some sort of Opa-style rhetorical question, or are you setting us up for one of your patented meta-rants about internet hypocrisy again?
-
Holy fuck, four posts in and I'm already getting my threads moved? Thanks but no thanks. Have fun in your little sandbox, and please, demi, spend as much time here as possible and not at OA :-*
-
Don't leave; we're supposed to be pals. :'(
-

You have no idea what I'm talking about even though I explained my definitions to you? See why I want to make personal attacks brainfart?
-
People also apparently feel vanity after accomplishing something, according to the dictionary. But who are we to let definitions get in the way of our dumbfuckery? Far be it from me to stop the uneducated from pushing the snowball of illiteracy through our little Internet sewage pit.
-
I suggest a Mel Gibson sugar tits smiley.
-

you complain everywhere you go, wah wah wah, soooo i'll do the best thing and make you complain more
:D
-
BTW, hicks, you can turn on "quick reply" by going into your profile, clicking on "Look and Layout Preferences" and turning it on.
-
I'm liking this place. Seems that it's off to a good start, and I really hope that it becomes successful.
Sorry my post has a distinct lack of bitching, but I didn't see a praise thread.
[edit] Haha, thanks for the tag, Willco.
-
I am honestly going to try and keep modding as hands off as possible, aside from any obvious pushes against our rules.
-
Also, FYI, we're working on a front end that should be neat and smilies will be fixed this week. And Drinky discovered that, which shows you how new we are at the software.
-
Well this should be an interesting place to come to thats for sure. And all my favorite people are here so yeah its all good in the hood.
-

Obviously I didin't know that. I thought vanity was just a parnoia of nothing. Who are you trying to win anything for? This is a stupid bitching. Have you no shame? I'm some crack rock shoving teenboy and you try insulting me instead of giving a response on any normal plane?
-
I thought you dug the personal attacks? ???
-
1) Ban Jotaro.
2) Will this be just like GAF where Drinky says whatever he wants and blatantly violates the rules and then bans anybody who speaks against him? :P
-
I banned a total of four people when I was a moderator at GAF, not one of which was an Opa-Ages regular. I banned for racism and thread-spanning personal vendettas.
Admittedly, I set a fuckload of you doofuses up to respond with the sort of shit I knew set off the other mods, but hey: you knew the rules! Don't be so fuckin' predictable and we'll get along peaches.
Jotaro rocks. He's a sly dog and he rules Opa-Ages with his sarcastical(sp) wit.
ALSO I AM NOT A MOD HERE NOR SHALL I EVER BE
-
I thought you dug the personal attacks? ???
Yeah, if the person pisses you off and you're sure he's said something stupid.
-
In light of Clerks 2, are we still considering porchmonkey as a racial slur?
Yeah, WTF is with that? I've been using the term for years.... I guess that explains the odd looks :-\
-

Thanks Drinky, I'm going to add this to the FAQ.
-
Rooter:
1.) I will not ban jotaro, he has done nothing wrong. Him being here isnt luck, he was allowed in.
2.) Right now I am one of the few mods here, and you can even call me a dumbfuck or whatever. I dont require you to agree with me, just fucking shut up if you cant get your way.
-
MrAngryFace is a dumb fuck.
ImsorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorry :-[
-
lulz you motherfucker, lulz
-
But honestly if the moderation is kept to an agreeable minimum this could be the greatest forum in the history of the internets...
ButwhoamIkidding? :'(
-
I fucking died for your sins and stood multiple lapidations while carrying your cross, and then rose with an incandescent aureole as a result. Now it's the motherfucking judgment day for all the heathens.
-
Shake: Trust me man, im REALLY lazy about moderation
-
Shake, if you have a problem about moderators, then look at our ToS. We allow you to elect new ones if need be every year. That's pretty fair.
-
Shake: Trust me man, im REALLY lazy about moderation
*dances*
Laziness doesn't even matter, its just when you've got some assholes who think because they have moderation powers they have to run the forum like its Nazi-fucking-Germany.
I think you know what I'm talking about :-X
-
Oh, I went through that phase a long time ago, but it wasnt so much Nazi Germany as it was umm...that scene from Rambo III where the guy gets blown up with the exploding arrow
Additionally, I wont be giving people reasons to elect a new MAF next year :p
-
MAF WILL WASH YOUR WINDOWS
MAF WILL DO YOUR HOMEWORK
MAF WILL KISS BABIES
MAF WILL COOK YOU DINNER
MAF WILL FUCK YOUR WIFE
MAF WILL LOWER TAXES
VOTE FOR MAF!!!
-
Dude, I cant even cook ME dinner.
-
Just order out.
I just ordered some Chinese and it was CRAZY DELICIOUS... and only $8.00!
-
I already posted this on OA, but I really think this place has potential.
cool as ice administration = check
fairly lenient rules = check
some of the best posters from GA and OA = check
At least OA and Evilbore can co-exist, for me anyway.
So, is that neo-whatever place dead yet?
-
Well, before elections, the forum votes for an extension or not and I doubt anyone will shoot down MAF. And besides, if he is forced to run against someone, MAF will continue to be a vocal, central person to the forum and have a special spot on the footsteps of the heavens.
I'm not going to put his avatar on fucking mugs to pay for my Steam account and ban him, that's for sure.
-
Unfortunately NeoGAF has fallen off of the map in terms of entertainment value. I don't check the gaming forums, but I hear they've gone to shit too.
What a shame :-\
-
Well as long as you dont ban me then use me to hock merchandise I can live with everything else.
Error: I recognize OA is doing its own thing, just like we are, and I dont feel like wasting energy attacking the sentient monster that is GAF. A fool is a man who thinks he runs that place.
-
Well as long as you dont ban me then use me to hock merchandise I can live with everything else.
I've wanted to buy the MAF shirt for so long, but have refused to give money to those savages.
Of course, to WasabiKing that's called cheap and allows for my handle/tag to be changed without my knowledge. That's an abuse of power if I've ever seen one! >:(
-
Hey, Wasabi's good people. :)
-
Yeah, Wasabi is good peoples.
If he could harness his amazing powers for good, instead of evil. He is like Darth Vader. He is bound to throw that Emperor sonofabitch down the storm drain one day.
-
Ok guys we're getting into dangerous territory. Lets drop the GAF talk, and just for the record, Wasabi is not the problem and he's a good guy.
-
He treats me like shit. Let him apologize for raping my profile and then we can talk ;)
-
I fucking died for your sins and stood multiple lapidations while carrying your cross, and then rose with an incandescent aureole as a result. Now it's the motherfucking judgment day for all the heathens.
i vote we ban jotaro if he keeps posting this tripe
why even take the time to post that shit
-
i never understood why so many people on the other board got to hate MrAngryFace so much over the years, personally I really don't
when you dislike posters, the best way not to get affected by that disliking is not to get worked up over him/her insignificant actions, why's that no one understands that ignorance is the best way to avoid getting worked up? And how hard is it really to avoid feeding the circle jerks of hatred with even more trolls?
most cocky teeny boppers on that other forum are absolutely unsupportable anyway, so if they get riled up by his trolls well they deserve to be :P
-
Ok, I changed the FAQ a bit. If you have any questions, look there first.
-
I think cloudwalking does more work than willco and myself combined lol
-
For the record I think this forum is pretty cool.
But then again, I'M A TOTAL TOOL ;)
-
I suggest banning mondain now before he makes a thread about stalking female blockbuster workers like he did on OA. ::)
He's OA's biggest joke.
-
I think cloudwalking does more work than willco and myself combined lol
Well, I don't mind putting in some time to help you guys. Besides, I am the queen of multi-tasking. While typing this, I am playing an MMORPG, eating a snack, talking on the phone, talking on IM, and doing a headstand. Fact.
-

Her tag is apt.
-
Shake for mod!
-
Shake for mod!
Hell no.
The e-universe would collapse from the sheer magnitude of it!!!
-
It's easy to hate what MAF and Willco says, but it's easy to respect how they fucking say it.
That's why I'm here, because they kick ass, even though I disagree with what they have to say.
Plus Shake invited me, and he's good peoples.
-
*blush*
-
If you guys start kissing...
-
What, are you going to start taping us MrDirtyFace? :-*
-
MEMBERS FIRST COINS LAST! LOOLZLLZ IM MOD
-
Laziness doesn't even matter, its just when you've got some assholes who think because they have moderation powers they have to run the forum like its Nazi-fucking-Germany.
I think you know what I'm talking about :-X
Well fuck you too.
-
We weren't talking about YOU Mike. Maybe if Master Shake said:
LIKE SOME PEOPE WHO MAKE COMIC STRIPS ABOUT POKER.
Then that would have been about you.
-

-
ALSO I AM NOT A MOD HERE NOR SHALL I EVER BE
Good, because quite frankly you fucking suck. :-\
-
I love this place why all the bitching?

Make love, not war.
