By shadow GAF, I mean where do they permabanned remnants of NeoGAF go? I've heard mentions of forums where permabanned members congregate to rip on GAF or something. Do these strange nether-realms exist?

Please don't ban me in order to send me on some crazy quest to find them myself. I was just curious.

Edit: You don't need to link these places or anything.

OPA-ages is the absolute worst of the GAF washouts. Don't go there, just know that it exists.

I felt dumb for trying to read a thread posted there once.

there is a forum that looks identical to this one where some banned gaf members and juniors who have waited years for activation post. idk if it is allowed to be linked though.

He who looks for banned members should look to it that he himself does not become banned. And when you gaze long into bishoptl the bishoptl also gazes into you.

If you've been around for awhile, are remotely recognizable, have been banned a few times, yet still remain...you'd be surprised what googling your username produces. I'll note that there are some really bitter d-bags out there without the slightest hint of humor left in them.

Regardless, why would you want to know?

There're 2 forums I know of, one already mentioned in the second post but I've never really read much on that site, the other I visited for a bit but it has problems with my ISP so I can't go there anymore, but in general they're just smaller forums for some people to talk about games and other stuff, not sure if I'm allowed to link them, and I'd rather not.

It's a misconception that all permabanned people go there to "rip" on gaf, there are some people who just left, etc and there are people who just wants a place to talk about stuff with people they know on gaf.

I was just curious, that's pretty much the only reason. Whenever I notice a post bemoaning someone being banned, I get curious as to where they go, whether there is a GAF-Lite Purgatory for them.

I don't think there's a place where they all go tbh.

I've seen Gaf members on other forums though like beyond3d and such because they uses the same usernames :lol, but some of them aren't banned.
