Maybe the real NeoGAF was the friends we made along the way...

[benjipwns]

So what's Gromph's role in all of this?

To make sure the site stays up. IIRC, he's the lone one who actually gets paid for his GAF job. (Not a salary or anything but I think he'd get money from Evilore to use for site needs plus as a thanks.) I don't think he ever posted other than about site issues, and maybe a couple times in a community thread for a side interest.

Guys, I think I got it. Evilore is obviously concerned about climate change, so he thought sharing the shower would contribute towards responsible water consumption

That reminds me, maybe taking down the forum for long periods and getting rid of all the moderators is how he finally figured out his pledge to have the site adhere to the Paris Accords.

Guys, I think I got it. Evilore is obviously concerned about climate change, so he thought sharing the shower would contribute towards responsible water consumption

And he shut down the site to save power.

So many looking for a new GAF. Such trash. For serious game discussion, I go to Something Awful. For the lulz I go to 4chan. Get on my level newbs

This could be a replacement for GAF.  Not because you guys want it but because you don't.  The OT threads here are on point minus the crushing authoritarian modship of GAF.

God damnit

fuck the nerd loser who thought getting into a chicks shower naked was a good first move
fuck the dumb bitch who dates that same guy and then 10 years later decides it wasn't just a stupid embarrassing mistake it was actual horrible sexual assault and he deserves a death sentence
fuck neogaf and the internet in general for thinking anybody at all with a differing opinion is either 100% a nazi or college intellectual
fuck the mods and admin over there who thought the best way to handle the situation was error 503 server maintenance
fuck thebore.com, nobody wants to actually use this site.
fuck my self for writing this whiny ass bitch post.


I just want to check the community forums and have my news aggregated for me

stupid fucking pedophiles

With GAF gone, the defacto best news aggregation site is SIFTD Games. Funny how things change. In the "SIFTD is in trouble" thread people said they couldn't see the point of the site with GAF. Lore even publicly tore into Shane about the site. Well who's laughing now, fuckers?

Oh my God, I forgot about that.  He gave some patronizing spiel about how to run a successful gaming site.

I figured Durante would be fleeing from GAF's remains since he was clearly chafing against the status quo before it died.

Wondering if demi can pay the bills with 10x increased traffic etc.

If this becomes an issue I'd hope donations were considered. Could spare some dollars to help keep a decent community afloat.

Just curious, and tell me if it's wrong to ask...

But are you the gaffer who used to work for a bank and posted about BOM's and such? Had a Stella (FF Versus13) avatar from what I recall? The name seems similar, but maybe it's just me getting confused.

[PogiJones]

I just wanna say, as a moderate conservative, I'm really happy to see a lot of left-leaning people here. It makes for much more dynamic discussion.

A lot of other anti-GAF sites (e.g. VOAT) are purely alt-right and super racist, as well as authoritative. Here, it seems to be a melting pot where people have to face opposing views and no one gets banned for it.

Good first impression so far.

[colinp]

THINGS I WILL NOT MISS FROM GAF:

- PUBG saltmines and whining
- shitty PS4 exclusive game winning GOTY over 10x better multiplatform games (happens every year - this year with the BOREFEST Horizon: Last Yawn)
- sonyfags running the place for circa 15 years
- praising Dark Souls 2 which is dumpster GARBAGE
- whole forum jacking off to some pedo-japanese game on Vita/ 3DS selling 80k copies LTD like it is some unheard of success
- "Switch port when?"
- Iwata bjs

Tons of other stuff. I rarely opened the Off Topic there as it was 99% centered on UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. You didn't even qualify to the WORLD CUP, losers.

THINGS I WILL MISS FROM GAF:

- More_Badass indie gaming/ iOS gaming threads. They were the best thing on the gaming side.
- all Souls threads in the Community section especially Bloodborne/ Dark Souls 3

Totally agree re iOS gaming thread- not going to miss MB’s holier than thou atttidude though.

Robin avatar is the same for that user that was bitching about the South Park game in the review thread while admitting that didn't had intention to play it to begin with.

That doesn't sound particularly well thought out.  Like the name and slogan both allude to the fact that the owner seriously fucked up and is letting the site die.  Without that context it is super ambiguous  and honestly sounds like some kind of progressive think tank

No, I'm "classic liberal" I guess.

They are only following mob behavior mentality. I don't think they really know why I'm the outcast. Their idea of me is a cartoon in their head.

Feels weird not having GAF, I have been so many years starting my day with it.

[etiolate]

I said that it's reasonable to think that Seth Rich was likely the leaker that supplied wikileaks the DNC emails. I never bought that he was killed in a political hit. So there's no conspiracy belief there. I just looked at the evidence and what the publisher of the leaks hinted at and concluded it was most likely a local download leaked by Seth Rich. (Who was a big Bernie supporter.)

That this is put forth as conspiracy theory and that I think Hilary killed Seth Rich is precisely because your a putz for mob behavior. It's nothing but misrepresentation.

For noobs here: The trade-off of the bore being relaxed is that its stuck deep in the peanut gallery, so if you make a reasonable serious point outside of the flow of thought then you engage cartoon mode. They aren't capable of real talk here.

why did i scroll through all that to issue likes

was it because zomgee was seriously lacking in them despite his properly identifying them as actual currency?

no, it was because this is the #ResetEra where everything old and terrible is popular AND MANDATORY, so use a proper pronoun when making an account you piece of shit so i don't have to cover my eyes

Imagine a world where TLOU2 launch day happens and there is no GAF.

imagine a world where Mario Odyssey comes out, and no neogaf to praise/hate/port-beg for it... wait

[etiolate]

Hot take: there will be another gaf thread because the gaf off-shoot effort will be a hilarious tire fire

[benjipwns]

also, they should get Peter Daou involved in this new forum instead of GAF cast-offs, gaming media for the 65.8 million!

think of the improved discourse when people couldn't post improper opinions about games or certain console platforms because an authentication code check would own their asses

and that's all assuming the post accidentally gets through the moderation queue first, so much time would be saved from having to read the hateful opinions on games i haven't played but love and made an OT for
