Do you spend your time on any other forums?

Sometimes I spend time on politico's comment section. Once in a great while I post comments at the WSJ.

The thing I have to remember is that online political debates are not poster-specific instances. They are open worlds with constantly respawning enemies.

Few things are more frustrating than finally "winning" the argument against a conservative only to have some new poster randomly appear and spout the first line of the conservative argument from ten pages back and seeing 29 people recommend his comment.
 
I don't understand why that particular forum can't be mentioned here at this point....its name has changed and the podcast gets posted here all the time.

Assuming we're talking about the same place, that particular forum is actually far less tolerant of flagrantly NSFW content than GAF is, unless labeled as such and hidden behind a hyperlink.

That's because it has a dedicated NSFW thread and most people are browsing the forum from work.

Anyway, besides here and...there, I also occasionally browse and post on 1up, GameFAQs, and my buddy, the infamous perma-banned Leguna's personal forum. I have a Something Awful account but never tend to go there.
 
I used to be one of the most frequent posters on IGN. Then they redesigned the board, didn't listen to any user feedback whatsoever, and I simply stopped giving a damn about that attitude and stopped going there. Now when I go in to see what it's like, the entire boards are just rapidly dying. Most of the specific forums have posts from 09 on the first page, the vestibule(which was there fastest board) is slowing down, everyone is abusing alt accounts because the moderation system was terrible, etc.

Gaf only for me now.
 
I once posted on Team Xbox. Damn, talk about a forum that went downhill. Their OT was once a pretty fun place to hang out with hundreds of great personalities. Now it's like everyone there is functionally retarded.

It looks like a forum full of ex-forum celebs from GAF where they think they're outrageous for being banned from GAF.

Nah, most of them don't even care, except for a small few who are mad about a ban and waiting for it to be up so they can go back, and are quite happy where they are.
 
Not lately. I go to ParadoxPlaza now and then for some EU3 but thats about it.

Used to frequent quite a few forums.
 
I was on Genmay for about 5-6 years, but it is now a shadow of its former self.

I also read a few Tennessee Vols message boards and of course reddit.
 
This is my main forum and the only one I post in but I also visit onemanga, conceptart and sherdog. I've been a member of the others for many years and only have like 5 posts in all of them combined. Love you Gaf

So why's the GAF thread over there so big? Cry babies.
Click to expand...

They're two faced as well, they relentlessly bitch about GAF members like Devo and Andrex behind their backs and when they join up they act as if nothing happened at all and that they're best buds. Also, their admin is a jerk who needs to lose weight.
 
I used to be on the Penny Arcade forums a lot, but the redesign has kind of turned me off.

Lately I've been lurking a lot on conceptart.org and zbrushcentral.

And I also follow a few different automotive forums like teamspeed,6speedonline, and m5board.
 
Redflagdeals.com - canada's version of fatwallet/cheapassgamer

Realgm.com - for my raptors and blue jays fix

Sherdog.com - every now and then but that board is filled with retards for the most part

Bimmerpost x3 forum - just bought this car a couple months ago

GAF comprises 80% of my forum time

Holy shit, totally forgot about txb, that used to be at the top of my list
 
How does anyone have time to regularly post on any other forum? I barely have time for GAF. If it weren't for the mobile app, I'd probably only post a couple of times every other month.

Haha, they actually linked to your post. What a bunch of nerds.

So they're talking about this thread, and this thread is talking about that thread?

Caught in each others' gravitational pull, it's only so long before there's a collision.

If the two other off-shoots weren't so dead they'd probably talk about this and that thread as well.

Forum singularity.
