Well, at least we can now say Kotaku is definitely posting things they found on NeoGAF?

 

[Interfectum]

lol

 

[Hot Coldman]

Wait, what? Do they have permission for this? Do they need permission for it? :lol

 

[LiK]

WTF? lol

 

[GuardianE]

Hahahahhahah.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

This is so weird. Wtf...

edit: and creepy

 

[Wallach]

Wait, what? Do they have permission for this? :lol

It would seem so, actually:

Ask NeoGAF is a republished thread from popular gaming forum NeoGAF reprinted with express permission from the site. NeoGAF started as the forum for video game news site Gaming-Age, but in 2006 became a stand-alone site. It is home to a vibrant and well-versed community of game players, makers and journalists. Hop on over and check it out sometime.

 

[Vard]

What.

 

[Wiseblade]

I feel dirty.

 

[Sophia]

Ummm, okaaaay. lol. >_>

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

Ok, that is good.

 

[Chinner]

haha thats what you get for making posts with effort in them.

 

[Omegasquash]

This could be fun.

 

[Hot Coldman]

It would seem so, actually:

Ah crap, reading comprehension fail. I read that bit, but obviously not well.

 

[FlyingTeacup]

way to generate content with minimal effort.

i have always quite fond of their otaku news, but it's increasing easy for me to stop reading their stuff.

 

[ultron87]

Wait, so they literally just reposted a thread?

Apparently they got "express permission".

 

[strafer]

Shit just got real.

 

[Boney]

it's about ScOULaris

this is just wrong

 

[Alligatorjandro]

GAF are famous

 

[jokkir]

Bahahaha

 

[mingus]

Hop on over and check it out sometime.

When do we start saying "don't go there, I got mad viruses from neogaf"?

 

[panty]

Just no.

 

[Christine]

If they're going to be doing this, this is the right way to do it - attribution, permission, linking back to the original thread, etc.

 

[Hot Coldman]

it's about ScOULaris

this is just wrong

Wait for the inevitable blame space thread repost, bwahahaha

 

[RPGamer92]

Trying to do everything not to be banned I see lol

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Tell them we prefer "GAF > Kotaku" rather than "NeoGAF Asks"

If they're going to be doing this, this is the right way to do it - attribution, permission, linking back to the original thread, etc.

Indeed, and it really takes the teeth (and fun) out of ripping into this.

It is still really weird and lazy though.

 

[Grimm Fandango]

Say it isn't so EviLore.

 

[NewFresh]

Makes me feel dirty

 

[Darklord]

Hahahahaha. Man, someone ran out of ideas to meet their quota this week!

 

[kyo_daikun]

Oh well, GAF has now been tarnished by the evil kotaku, back to gamefaqs guys!

 

[Ninja Kn1ght]

If a gaffer didn't want their posts appearing on Kotaku, would that be an issue? Presumably the content of all of our posts belongs to NeoGAF.

 

[GraveRobberX]

In before "Damn must be a slow gaming news day" or the inevitable "Slowtaku".jpg post(s)

 

[ShaneB]

Does this mean we're all game "journalists" now??

 

[crecente]

I'm a sorta long time member. Well, maybe not relatively speaking. But I don't really post or visit that much over here.

Just wanted to say Hi. I was the one who thought it might be neat to rerun some of NeoGAF's interesting questions on Kotaku. I reached out to EvilLore just to make sure he was OK with it before hand and to run the formatting by him. This is just a little experiment, so if it doesn't work out, or Gaffers hate the idea we can just stop it.

Anyway: Hi!

 

[Mpl90]

NeoGAF: *laughs*

Now is that express written consent or implied oral consent? Evilore, you got some explainin' to do!

 

[Dead Man Typing]

Do we all get a percentage of the ad revenue?

 

[UnluckyKate]

So I am posting on Kotaku right now ?

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I'm sure Evilore appreciates the free publicity. The more lurkers the merrier for him, no?

 

[HiroProtagonist]

smh. I do like how they refer to GAF as "the Internet's gaming forum."

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

LOLOLOLOL hahhahaah seriously that is great if we get the credit for it.

Hey kotaku I have 1 for you:

[Deadly Cyclone]

I'm holding out for more money.

Does this mean we're all game "journalists" now??

We've always been game journalists.

 

[Saint Gregory]

NeoGAF and Kotaku need to just f*** and get it over with, the sexual tension is getting out of hand.

 

[Boken]

We're going to be famous!

 

[MetatronM]

I just saw this over in the weather effects thread.

Hilarious.

 

[we.are.the.armada]

We are all videogames now.

That weather thread was a good thread by the way.

 

[erpg]

Left 4 Dead 2's hurricane is certainly a nice addition. The voice chat filter was a brilliant idea, and I was so confused at the fact that I could barely hear anyone.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

And it's a ScOULaris thread too.

I'm watching you!

 

[Suairyu]

haha thats what you get for making posts with effort in them.

It's actually scary, Chinner. I'm contemplating being more Chinner-like in my posting just so I don't risk ending up on Kotaku.
