@theMcNasty: Why did you feel the need to bump a 10 month old thread just to ask if IGN has forums?

Well, any original poster can use this thread to work out how much the forums have improved already.

IGN has forums. They're only confusing if you're a retard.

Its a greatly organize site. Though it takes getting used to how everything is set up. As its much different than other places. I know it took me awhile at first to get used to the set up. Now that I have though, it is great!

While I should lock this thread for massive bumping(makes jokes at your will now), I will leave it alone.  Just a note to everyone.  Bumping very old threads will result in a warning against.  As previously said, I will let this infraction slide, but any more from here on out will be dealt with appropiately.

Bumping very old threads is counted under spamming.  We talked about it before, but it was some time ago and it was never implemented into the Guidelines.  Basically it was an unwritten rule of sorts.  That is whay I am saying it again now.  It will be put in a newly revises Forum Guidelines.

How is it spamming if it's relevant? Wouldn't making a duplicate topic for the same purpose be spamming?

Yeah, and would the Mods rather duplicate threads being made instead of digging up old ones?  It may not apply in this thread so much, but if somebody has something relevant to add, then I don't see a probably with it.

It's hard to label it under a group, but since most bumps are usually spam, it has just been thrown under it.  Creating a duplicate thread would only be spamming if the similar thread in roughly new.  If you are duplicating a very old thread, it does not count as spamming.

Guys, this thread is TEN MONTHS OLD. This was created in the very first week of Giant Bomb's initial opening.

Stop posting in it.
