i went there and saw 3 separate threads for Giantbomb content. WTF? why cant they come over here and post on these forums? they're in love with the editorial content but cant come here and post? im new here so i dont know the recent history but did they have a fight with giantbomb or something?
a regular bombcast one - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=415223
a quick look one - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=349917
a even a general giantbomb discussion thread - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=392431
edit - someone from here posted the thread over there and they replied -
Why does Neogaf hate Giantbomb's community ??
This topic is locked from further discussion.
" ...too many kids here. Too be honest, I don't know why I spend more time here than GAF. "excuse me sir? as a 15 year old, i resent that remark.
NeoGaf is insular. Almost exclusionary. I wouldn't be surprised if most of their members didn't bother going elsewhere. Eh. I'm no different. I pick a website and stick with it until I finally get sick of it. Started with Neo-Geo.com and worked my way around.
Theres nothing wrong with discussing the same content in a different social context. Would it be weird to talk about GB content in real life? Absolutely not. I know it sounds weird, but the same rule applies here.
" ...too many kids here. Too be honest, I don't know why I spend more time here than GAF. "Then go over and stay over, we don't want you.

I dunno, from what I have seen posting around on GAF is that most people are fine with the Giantbombers and love everything the 4 guys at Giantbomb do.
Did you see the GT5 thread on NeoGAF? They were pissed shitless at the Quick Look, and said it was a joke that's how GB represented the game." Yeah, I tend to do the same thing as well.

" @WickedCobra03 said:But is that a case of "we hate giantbomb" or "we hate what giantbomb did"? Because it could be that latter if they just expected more. RebelFM fucking rattled GT5 to the ground. A lot of places took GT5 to task. They might be taking exception because they think GB is better than that. You gotta at least like someone to be disappointed in them. Otherwise you never thought that much to begin with." Yeah, I tend to do the same thing as well.

" @President_Barackbar said:*Spits milk all over his keyboard*" Then go over and stay over, we don't want you. "...561 people say otherwise. "
Wait, wait, wait. I'm not suggesting that you leave (I take no issue with you), but did you really just use your follower count as a rebuttal to his suggestion that you leave?
There were so many perfectly acceptable responses, and yet that's the route you decided to take.
*Sigh*
yeah because theyre all acting like well-mannered adults over there on gaf." ...too many kids here. Too be honest, I don't know why I spend more time here than GAF. "
i havent logged in there in forever so im sure my account is gone. i still visit it all the time for info. its just that some people there have a good sense of humor, the rest are so restricted to the internet as a social life that their humor is absolutely sad and annoying. they drop internet memes like its a job.
Cause these forums reek of mods that don't have strict enough rules. Why do sites always have to be either too moderated or not moderated enough? Something in the middle please.
" @KaosAngel: I'm talking about all video game forums, maybe I'm a bit use to simply chilling in smaller community forums, GB has grown a bit much since it's launch in 2008 :( "No way, still a tight community. End up seeing the same users everyday. I think that's why I pick GB over GAF, despite the idiots...those idiots are my family. Also, CaseyWagner got his ass fucking banned her twice. I hate that douche so much.
since you posted there, they're now all calling out people from here. lol, this is some cross dimensional internet conflict" Oh hey, it's the Bombcast thread I made. "
" ...too many kids here. Too be honest, I don't know why I spend more time here than GAF. "Still attention whoring I see.
Seriously if anyone on the internet is "hating" other sites their community they need to go outside and play, silly people.

You're both right. Fuck GAF!" @firehawk12 said:
Typical NeoGAF bullshit. Why don't you stop shitting up our thread and go back to where you came, troll? "" @iAmJohn said:
