"Watched it half drunk at a film festival, the guy next to me passed out during some of the most brutal parts - was pretty amusing at the time. Good film though, loved it. "

" I dont know if its in the rules I mean I didnt feel like reading the entire ToS. But I mean just go to a forum of a brand new game where there are pre-order bonuses involved and there are almost always 20 topics of people giving away codes or trading for them. I know a ton of people giving away extra costume codes for LBP1 for example when it came out, and i guarantee DAII's forums will have some in a week as well. "

 This is terrible logic and I see it far too often. Just because someone else manages to skirt by the mods, it doesn't mean the rules are free to be broken. You said it yourself, the gamefaqs/gamespot forums are huge and you can't expect volunteer mods to catch everything. They just don't want their forums to turn into a place where people are selling shit; it's a fair rule.  "

Uhm it doesnt take much looking to see 30 topics on one page about the same thing so obviously their monitoring is severely lacking. And even if it is against the rules(which im not sure it is) then they need to pick up on how they monitor forums because they obviously are blind if they miss so many blatantly obvious topics. "

 You're so full of shit. 30 topics on one page all dedicated to trading codes? I'd be willing to bet there is usually none and at the most there is no more then 5. And you have to remember how the moderation system there works. Other users flag topics/messages then the mods step in; they probably don't sit there browsing the boards looking for stuff to moderate. They have thousands of boards to moderate and I doubt they're gonna keep an eagle eye on every single post that is made. Maybe you should be angry at other users for marking your post but not someones else's.  "

" Is it in the rules that you can't do that? If so, it doesn't matter how many other people do it and seemingly don't get punished. You still shouldn't do it. "

agreed man, rules are rules "

Haha yeah I mean I prefer GB much more, its just that the user base for game specific forums is much larger at GS/GameFaqs unfortunately.
