Good Night Giant Bomb. Did you have fun on your first day?

If this post seems extremely incoherent, I apologize. It's going on midnight here. I thought I'd wrap up Giant Bomb's first day.

It can be described with one word: chaos.

I started the day making several contributions. All of them are still pending.

I posted a bit on the forums from time to time. It seemed like it would be cool at first, but people don't seem to understand how it works, so I wrote an FAQ for the forums along with BoG and cann3dheat. You can see it here.

Now, the forums have dissolved into a bunch of crap. People spamming, posting extremely inappropriate topics, making multiple threads for the same things, etc. And there's no moderation to control it since all of the admin and mods are too busy accepting submissions.

Well, it's been a fun day, but I hope I don't wake up to absolute chaos in the morning. G'night and I hope you can survive the night, Giant Bomb!

Yeah, but to be honest I expected it would be like this from reading the comments on the Giant Bomb blog site. People seemed so excited that they could be the first people to join a new gaming site, and they all seem to think it's "cool" and "alternative" to be here, I guess because it's like the anti-Gamespot and they think joining is a form of rebellion. Also, lots of people seem to think that because everybody is new here, they have a better chance of becoming a moderator. Anyway, people will all calm down eventually. Good job for posting the FAQ.
