The Official Psychoanalysis GAF Thread

[Verdigris Murder]

I remember when wasabi peas were a novelty, now they're popular they're just not as cool.

[brob]

wasabi nuts

[Shaka Khan]

Oh my god... Andy's ignore extension for Chrome... it's amazing. The people I dislike have disappeared without a trace. GAF is already so much better.

wasabi nuts

$5 to whomever guesses what I just thought of reading this.

[Verdigris Murder]

Don't worry, just buy yourself something nice.

[Verdigris Murder]

Sounds utterly disgusting.

[Human Snorenado]

The point is that I insulted a mod, not that he's a crackhead.

Booo, I insulted a mod and got perm'd 4 years ago and have never been unbanned.

...actually I don't even know if that's true, I haven't tried to log in to my gaf account in forever.

[KoG]

Not sure if I'd insult a Mod.

I'd sure as hell like to insult some posters though.

[thisismyusername]

Tanned Asian Male nuts? 

[BlackMage]

ah thank god. Manos: Hands of Fate or whatever finally got banned. Dude was annoying!

[parallax]

Not sure if I'd insult a Mod.

I'd sure as hell like to insult some posters though.

I'm sure anyone would love to take a crack at a mod if there were no permaban waiting for them

[Momo]

I'd probably troll Kagari the most since our interests largely overlap and shes not the sharpest pencil in the box.

[parallax]

I don't think I've had the pleasure of encountering kagari on gaf.

[Momo]

JRPG threads

[Cindi Mayweather]

Kagari doesn't post in jrpg threads. She posts in Final Fantasy threads, and even at that, she will post like 3 times a thread and then people will act like she is the queen of Final Fantasy or some shit.

[Tasty]

Yeah, you're far more likely to run into Aeana (<3) in any given JRPG thread than anyone else. Which is cool cause she's cool.

[Shaka Khan]

Kagari doesn't post in jrpg threads. She posts in Final Fantasy threads, and even at that, she will post like 3 times a thread and then people will act like she is the queen of Final Fantasy or some shit.

You mean threads about Final Fantasies that were released between 1997 and 2012.

[Cindi Mayweather]

Ah yes! Specifically for Sony systems! If it's pre-FFVII don't count on Kagari in that thread. The funny thing is that she is the apparently dubbed "biggest Final Fantasy  fan" on that board.

lol

[Tasty]

She also has inside sources at Square who tell her Versus is coming along fine. 

[Human Snorenado]

...why the fuck would someone like that get modded?  Nevermind, amirox is still a bigger mystery I suppose.

[Cindi Mayweather]

She also has inside sources at Square who tell her Versus is coming along fine. 

She may or may not be right about that.

[Momo]

Yeah, you're far more likely to run into Aeana (<3) in any given JRPG thread than anyone else. Which is cool cause she's cool.

I'd rather talk inane drivel with Kagari than speak with Aeana.

[parallax]

Who was the one that was sure that 7th dragon was coming to the us?

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Kagari probably got modded because she is a well known female contributor (although that is a stretch) on the gaming side.  Of course, hopefully there were other women who were asked to take the job before her but turned EviLore down first because Kagari is a terrible poster.

Amir0x probably got modded because he was on the board 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

[Diunx]

But how? he got an extremely high paying government job! surely he didn't have time to argue about vidya all day everyday.

[Momo]

But how? he got an extremely high paying government job! surely he didn't have time to argue about vidya all day everyday.

There is your answer.

Theres a meme in my country about government workers doing fuck all but interneting and making long distance phone calls all day. From personal experience, this is accurate.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

But how? he got an extremely high paying government job! surely he didn't have time to argue about vidya all day everyday.

He works at an army depot.  If by extremely high paying government job you mean $40,000-50,000 a year, then sure.

Fake Edit: I know you were being sarcastic and you're not the first one to call him out on that fact.  The dude is a known bullshitter but to a drug abusing mother beating scumbag, a $40,000 a year government job is pretty nice.

[brob]

if four or more people stand around shooting shit at work someone will inevitably ask if our business was bought out by the government.

always so hilarious.

[tiesto]

Who was the one that was sure that 7th dragon was coming to the us?

Dragona, but in her defence, her source was me, and my source was someone inside SEGA.  As you may or may not know, SEGA changes their plans like socks.  I feel bad about that one, cuz she really depended on my assurance there.

Yeah, that really sucked we never got that game in the US 

[Lan]

I got banned because a shitty mod called me a troll and I question why such a shitty mod would call me a troll. I regret nothing 

[Lan]

She also has inside sources at Square who tell her Versus is coming along fine. 

most people have given up on anything Square. I honestly do not care if Versus comes out or not.

FFXIII-2 ---> looks boring I don't know why people payed so much for crappy download content.

Final Fantasy music game on the 3DS --> Why are people paying a premium for re-run videos of past Final Fantasy games? I also do not like the ugly puppets. Why are people paying SE money for this game, it looks major boring.

All I want from Square Enix is another Deus Ex tbh.

[Tasty]

Of course, hopefully there were other women who were asked to take the job before her but turned EviLore down first because Kagari is a terrible poster.

Red Scarlet.

[Owl-faced Wizard]

You have awful taste so I'm not surprised.

[Takao]

ah thank god. Manos: Hands of Fate or whatever finally got banned. Dude was annoying!

I swear, Manos gets banned like every week so he'll probably be back.

[brawndolicious]

The GAF meet up actually went pretty well. A few people did ask what happened to demi, I told him he posts on here which is a GAF off-shoot forum.

[Momo]

I'll respond to you both at the level of conversation you are comfortable with:

Suck my dick.

[demi]

Aeana has a very big holier than thou attitude toward the genre, but she is very knowledgable.

[Momo]

As for a real answer, in my experience Aeana is incapable of having a human conversation. She's much more interested in pushing her point and in general is dismissive of opinions she does not like/does not agree with. Your own personal experience may vary, but I have zero time to give for bullshit like that.

[brob]

I don't think she's incapable as much as she's realized neogaf isn't a worthwhile place for it. she dispenses her points in a matter of fact way, which is perfectly fine considering the loud n proud ignoramuses that populate rpg/anime/general uguu~ threads.

[Momo]

That may be the case but that makes her a terrible conversation partner on GAF (which is where the majority of my interaction took place). I'd rather talk to Kagari as I said before, because regardless of how silly she is on any given day I at least feel that there was someone on the other side of the conversation thread. I'd probably get along famously with her on the bore though.

[Tasty]

Oh no, I know she does that, she did it with me once when I posted in some JRPG thread about how I don't prefer turn-based systems and she's like "Don't you like Pokemon?" and I was like "That's the exception, not the rule."

Although that may have been someone else, I can't remember.

In any case, I find most of her posts enjoyable, and it is entertaining watching her go tit-for-tat with someone over the finer points of the genre. Also, the FF5 four job thing is a really cool series, even though I'd never participate.

There's absolutely no comparing her to Kagari.

[Momo]

You like watching her post, not talking with her My misgivings surrounding her isnt about the hypothetical value she adds over Kagari, that's not even a question. My sentiment was that I'd "rather knowingly engage in drivel with Kagari than speak with Aeana". I feel talking with Aeana is a waste of time for what I want out of a conversation. 

[Tasty]

Nah, I'd still talk with Aeana since I'm still a JRPG noob and she actually knows what she's talking about, usually.

[demi]

Most of the time... JRPGs can vary on user experience. She says she doesnt like Xenoblade, when pretty much everyone - even in mother land Japan herald it as one of the best ever.

[Purple Filth]

The only thing fun seeing  Aeana do is her being disappointed due to what happened to Dragon Quest with X 

[Rahxephon91]

The only propblem with Arena is that she is incredibly serious about JRPGs and how much she thinks she knows more about them then you. Which it may be true that she knows more then you, but whenever an argument comes up, she doesn't really reinforce her opinion. She plays "i'm the expert here" card. It's annoying. And there just seems to be no humor in her talk of games, so she's not really a voice I like listening to. Duckroll and Bebpo are far more interesting to read. They also have tons of knowledge and drop their opinions in a very non-condescending way. They also seem to be able to understand that these rpg things are kind of stupid and thats kind of fun. I like that. I mean Arena is still a good poster, but she's not a favorite one to read, you know?

As for Kagari, I've already displayed my dislike much to the annoyance of this forum. And while I'm pretty bitter that I think she banned me for what I think are dumb reasons, I'll smack myself before I got into cry mode. I never liked Kagari, because as a poster she never had anything interesting to say. Now I won't say "Rax91 was some briallnt poster"! No I was a pretty dumbshit member as well, but I think at least my opinions were put on gaf in a very genuinene matter. You know I never got that from Kagari, her posts seemed "manufactured" and really never said anything cool. They were just there, maybe there for attention. Maybe there to make herself seem big? Stupid I know, but hey she would always try to be the first to make new news threads, but they would just be "here's a link". At leas say duckroll would add a bit more if he was posting news, and you know a news thread he made would have actual info, it wasnt a race to be first. I don't know, I guess I can't describe it. She does never had much worthwhile things to read. Besides her bias were completely unsubtle. How a clear as day Sony fangirl became a mod gets me.

meh, Y2Kev is a Sony fanboy and EatChildren is a self confessed Nintendo fanboy. Evi clearly doesn't care about fanboy bias when selecting mods.

[Purple Filth]

I don't remember seeing those 2 wearing it on their sleeve though

Eatchildren admitted that he was a Nintendo fanboy in a Nintendo thread, it doesn't get any more wearing on sleeve than that. Also, Y2Kev is a much more visible Sony fanboy than Kagari, Kagari mainly tends to stick to Japanese oriented Sony stuff whilst Y2Kev pretty much absorbs anything that Sony has made and sticks to Sony threads, he even bought the Resistance Vita game! You can't get much more Sony fanboy than that.

[Shaka Khan]

The difference is, both have redeeming qualities as posters and mods that offset their partialness (something they're open about), whether it's humor, sincerity, knowledge or intelligence. On the other hand, I don't think she enjoys any of those traits more than the average poster, and she's rather disingenuous especially about her "choices."

I don't think she's a horrible person, and I think she's an ok poster, but why the hell would anyone trust the judgement of someone like her who's about average on every front?

[Joe Molotov]

But how? he got an extremely high paying government job! surely he didn't have time to argue about vidya all day everyday.

He works at an army depot.  If by extremely high paying government job you mean $40,000-50,000 a year, then sure.

$40,000 buys a lot of Taco Bell, brah.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

The thing that puts Kagari on top of the "shittiest GAF mods" list is her bullshit "insider" connections that she likes to tout.  I don't know if any other GAF mod plays that card but if they do, they're at the top of the list.  The reason why they annoy me is that 99% of the time they are pure bullshit and is just attention whoring at its worst.  Given Johnny Nightfraud, Wii Will Rock U debacle, and how none of the Wii U insidahs came up with any credible E3 2012 predictions, there should be a zero tolerance for that kind of shit.  Now that mods like sp0rsk and Vennt have long since been demodded, she is probably the worst one out there.

[Cindi Mayweather]

AHAHAHA JOHNNY NIGHTTRAIN

can someone link to that gaf thread from like e3 2006 or some shit

ahahahah

She la la loves the attention more than anyone else on the team, while the rest don't give too much shit. Plus she's the only one who tries/tried to exploit her position for personal gain and further her "career." Whether its the exposure of her work, extracting insider info from insider posters, or the hilarious kick starter.

Kev and EatChildren are so much better it's not even funny. Then again, I love both to bits, so I'm a pretty biased homo.

[Verdigris Murder]

Conspiracy.

[Owl-faced Wizard]

I'd rather talk to Kagari as I said before, because regardless of how silly she is on any given day I at least feel that there was someone on the other side of the conversation thread.

Kagari is an empty suit.  She literally has no opinions on any subject other than 'I like Sony and Square-Enix'.  You only felt you were engaged in conversation because you like to hear your own opinions echoing back at you from the other side of the canyon.

[Fifstar]

Wearing it on the sleeve isn't the problem. If you're self aware and can accomodate for that, it's actually a positive thing, everybody is a fanboy to a certain extent.

[KoG]

Now I remember what Mod I'd probably dislike

Dragona

[tiesto]

I don't think she's incapable as much as she's realized neogaf isn't a worthwhile place for it. she dispenses her points in a matter of fact way, which is perfectly fine considering the loud n proud ignoramuses that populate rpg/anime/general uguu~ threads.

I think RPG threads are usually filled with tons of haters who literally have no idea wtf they are talking about and just post to take potshots at the genre... and Aeana is pretty tired of dealing with them and refuting the same points over and over. So that's why she acts that way...

She knows her shit, she's familiar with lots of obscure games I don't know too many people else are into, so I do like talking to her.

Kagari on the other hand... most of the time I don't even notice her posts, she doesn't really add much to the conversation IMO apart from quick pro-Sony quips. Bebpuuuu~ is my favorite of the RPG thread people. Though I miss Ethelred

Most of the time... JRPGs can vary on user experience. She says she doesnt like Xenoblade, when pretty much everyone - even in mother land Japan herald it as one of the best ever.

I was under the impression she liked the game but was kinda sick of the clamor around it (which IMO is well deserved, one of the best RPGs I've played in years).

[Shuri]

Outside of the obvious viral marketing agents or desperate journalists, industry people of importance left gaf a long time ago. It's also so gigantic and public now; why would anyone want to risk their jobs by leaking legit infos? This is rather unfortunate; because it was really interesting when those kind of people would give their insight on things. I don't think Vic Ireland even posts there anymore.
