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.

Yeah, I tend to do the same thing as well.  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.

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.

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.

yeah because theyre all acting like well-mannered adults over there on 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.

Casue last I checked, we don't have that fucking dick CaseyWagner here, and the mods are way harsher than NeoGAF. 
 
Mods here are the best, except for BoG...he bailed on us.  :(

Yeah, and plus it's probably just their preferred community and they don't want to have to go to a dozen forums everyday.

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.

They stay there because they're a community. We stay here because we're a community.

They don't, it's simply their preferred forum and they still like talking about GB's content. Yeah, someone could be a member on a ton of forums, but it's a lot easier to just pick one and stick around it.

neogaf? is that that website that charges people to get an account? or is that some other site? or am i making this up? and how do you use question marks i still have no idea sometimes?
