I kind of lurk on both, but I was just curious if people would migrate back to NeoGAF while ResetEra is down for their update.

How about the comments in the Youtube video for that?How bout that Gundam music

No for me. Used to visit there for game news/general news because of the speed new threads are posted, but that gradually faded away over the last year.
Never had an account. I can barely keep myself unbanned here.
Friends don't let friends Resetera.
How bout that Gundam music
I frequent both places, lot of good folks at both sites but I like the culture here more.
I will say that the mods here are top notch and visiting other places makes me appreciate the mods we currently have here. They stay behind the scenes and keep things going smoothly and allow good discourse as long as it doesn’t get it out of hand, but when things do get heated they give fair warnings and are slow to pull the trigger unless absolutely necessary.
Good job GAF admin/mods/techs!
Same. I lurk here more these days, though.I post on both, but never really left Gaf. I just enjoy having two places to go now .
.It's feels the other is always a step behind neogaf regarding site improvements.

The answer is good people stay and contribute. I know you didn’t ask me, but that’s the answer.Real talk N NeoGAF EviLore -- How do we get user activity back up to pre-RE levels? Is there a hope in hell of this ever happening again? Are activity trends still seeing positive inflection?
The most valuable part of GAF was the insanely high user activity that turned this site into the best real-time breaking news aggregator I had ever seen. I learned about some of the most important stories of the past decade within MINUTES of it happening - well before CNN would break the news. Now RE has the users and the excellent user activity, but the alt-left moderation makes the site an unusable echo chamber.
Look on the first page of RE off-topic. Half of the threads show the latest post "a moment ago" (i.e. <1 min). Now look at GAF. It's still like a graveyard.
I don't have the answers. I know some will say "I like the slower pace these days!" but that's not true for the vast majority of people. Activity > content >> activity >>> content >>>> etc.. Maybe there needs to be some kind of mass sign-up drive. Or some kind of incentive system to get people to post more/create more threads. Hopefully smart people than me have better ideas.
