Yet another GAF thread - I still haven't got over it :( (No spergfits allowed)

Following E3 on twitter > following E3 on GAF.

I had a ton of fun making jokes and dicking around with Beezy last year.

how do you follow e3 on twitter? any particular things you follow?

Just other gamers and we tweet while watching the conferences, it's a lot of fun.

Oh. It's been tradition to use irc for me

This is what happens when spergs throw themselves into group situations without the proper social tools.

stump is the best poster GAF has got, I can't even understand how someone compared him to Opiate. Stump writes long textdump posts but he's actually smart and says things that are worth reading. Opiate just rehashes things in a way that makes dumb people think he's smart.

Don't feel sad for me. I'm a guy of health, and I don't ever plan to experience such debauchery and "fun." Fun is something I enjoy when I'm in my true frame of mind, not when I'm under the influence. I don't want anything ever messing up my thought process. Subjecting yourself to alcohol and smoking at such an age is foolish, even if its more tame such as the party you mention. Besides, fun isn't always good. Lots of bad things are fun.

I wasn't socially uncomfortable, I was just smart.

We don't have to take our clothes off

Um, they're right though. Most other sites, regardless of size, attend and do a bit of reporting and coverage. Afaik, Tyler has been going there only to take pictures with industry people lol.

90% of trade shows is people taking pictures with each other and going to strip clubs on advertising budgets.  they're for networking.  The guy who runs GAF has as much a place there as any of the socially deformed game journalists who "cover" the event (aka collect swag bags and take sweaty pics with booth babes) for major sites.  Besides, GAF really is a nexus of enthusiasts, for better or worse.  To exclude its owner will be taken as a perceived slight by a lot of people on the site, it's just bad PR.

Obviously, his... let's call them arguments for lack of a better word... weren't exactly pro-Android.
He's the kind of fanboy who actually spends money on competing devices in order to lend pseudo-credibility to his shitting on them.

On the other hand, E3 isn't exactly strict with those.  I remember seeing 14 year old Patrick Klepek rolling around with his press pass when the whole shebang is supposed to be 18 & up.

And why aren't the minors under arrest too?!? And everyone who's viewed it and done nothing?

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=112778716&postcount=499

How many 15 years old do you know have access to the space needed to throw a birthday party that big. Gotta be 20-30 kids there. (20-30 isn't big for college though)

And how many 15 years old can ask their parents. "Hey I'm going to throw a birthday party, so please don't check up on me. Thx"

So unless all these kids snuck away, and had a birthday party in the woods, stole alcohol and cigar, weeds, etc.

I'm pretty sure no responsible parents would let their kids party like this. So either these kids aren't 15. (Which is my original assumption) or they really are 15, and most likely the parents who hosted this "birthday party" are shitty parents.

I know I won't let my kids drink, smoke cigar, and crap like this under my supervision.

I like how some people on here has the mentality, just because other generations have been doing it for decades, mean its acceptable.

Also, this guy is out of working order:

Sorry, but I watch these people having so much fun in their teens/early 20's and can't help but wish I'd experienced it. It's a part of growing up and becoming a sexual person, and learning to be comfortable in your own skin.

I am stunted in that regard. I've never been comfortable in my own skin. I am just one of life's losers; social anxiety destroying any chance of a normal, healthy social and sex life. The sad thing is the seeds were sown from such an early age - when I finally realised how badly things were going wrong it was too late (early 20's). People were already excluding me, and saying things like 'I bet you've never been to a party'. I was well on the path to loserdom.

Now it's set in stone, and I am a 28 year old virgin who's woefully un equipped to deal with life, or succeed socially. But what can I do? 'Be more positive' isn't going to work, I don't think.

How are bedsheets, which you can launder, worse than the mattress which all sorts of sweat, cum and other fluids will seep into and that you can't throw in the laundry?

As for the servers dying under load, that been happening a whole lot lately? We handled Beast Souls without a hitch. Teams of consultants couldn't do squat to optimize us any further, nor is it a hardware issue (increasing hardware resources significantly multiple times did nothing), but I have a friend who pretty much built the back end of Facebook and he went in and found some hidden issues and cleaned up our code base with custom solutions, so we should be in really good shape now, 2-4x efficiency and without the process bottlenecks that would cause the site to crash. I've been prepping us for E3 2014 for months after what happened last time around.

that second one, lol.

Evilore did report on his E3 experience last year, I specifically remember he was interested in the Witcher and talked about it on the site, and possibly when he was on Giant Bomb. It makes sense for us as posters not to qualify, but Evilore is a person who has access to thousands of people who are extremely interested in what he, personally, has to say. Giving him a pass to E3 is much different than some random poster. He might not run his own regular news site but he certainly reports on his experiences/thoughts about things in a global forum.

In all fairness, that's the truth. Thousands is definitely an exaggeration, but he has 6k followers on twatter

So they can be updated when the site is back online I assume.

i have a friend, who is nobody of note in the grand scheme of things, with about 70k followers on twitter. don't know how that worked

edit: 73k followers, following 1,800.

No, because he is a serial adulterer who openly brags about it and she is a woman who is vindictive enough to sue her ex-husband for 4 billion Swiss francs.

I knew a dude around that age who raw dogged his mattress, and between the chain smoking and all the sweat it had turned a brownish yellow color. Basically just absorbed his filth like a giant tampon. Truly foul shit. I wanted to burn it but it would probably cover the town in a smog for days.

following someone on twitter is by no means the same thing as wanting to hear what they have to say.

It isn't? I only follow people I like

[benjipwns]

I only follow people or things I like but I don't really read 90% of the tweets. Maybe only one or two people do I stop to read every tweet instead of skimming through my feed.

Though I have a bad habit of leaving things I don't want to follow anymore in my feed because I'll get to removing them later which never comes because I don't check twitter enough to remember until the next time I do.
