Its kinda ironic too, seeing as nazi germany and their lack of coke is the reason we have fanta Was literally coming into this topic to point this out. adjl posted... Yeah, that's a symbol that nobody's really in a rush to reclaim. Debatable. There's a fair few Asians who still use it in its original religious context and get a bit pissy when people complain about it. Sort of a "I think our thousands of years of symbolic meaning outweigh what those German assholes did with it" attitude. It's mostly Westerners who get uptight about it (for obvious reasons). It'll actually be interesting to see what happens with it over the next few centuries, honestly. It's still a raw wound in the West because it's relatively recent, but time has a way of erasing all context and wariness. Or to put it another way, the atrocities of the previous century are always going to sting a lot worse than atrocities from more than a millennium ago. Most people today don't really give much of a shit what the Romans were up to or who they were killing. Or the ancient Greeks. Or... etc etc. I think we're already getting to the point where WWII is barely "real" to most of the younger generations. A few more generations and we might see a shift in how things are perceived overall. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

So where should those users go? You make it sound like the answer is to another site. If they aren't welcomed at those boards according to your anecdote. The problem is whether you care about the perspective of the people who are being displaced, versus the people whose house they're breaking into.

Just reading this all of a sudden made me remember Cheat Code Central. Man, I don't even think that made it through the 00's. I used to use a site called GIA for guides back in college in the 90s. I remember using it to solve some of the puzzles in Riven. That site shutting down is actually what brought me here - I needed to look for a game, GIA had shut down, and I found myself on GameFAQs. CyborgSage00x0 posted... Can't the Way Back Machine site locate a decent amount of old stuff? Yes and no. It mostly depends on what you're looking for. Most web archiving services generally have to go trawling for sites via links, so if a site wasn't strongly linked to it was potentially easy for archivers to miss. On top of which, people who run sites only have to add a single .txt file to their site to prevent archiving: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robots.txt There's definitely a ton of stuff that used to exist that's gone poof (presumably forever) because the Wayback Machine never managed to catch it. Which I know because I've looked for it and it wasn't there. In some cases, you'll ironically get a page or two from a site, but most of the rest of it just isn't there (worst is when you get a menu page complete with tons of links, and literally none of the links work). And then, of course, there's the logic most people never really think about - what happens when the archiving services also shut down? There's no real reason why the Internet Archive is somehow eternal or immune to shutting down. If the money or interest in maintaining it ever runs out, everything they've archived can easily disappear. Same for Wikipedia - most people sort of assume it's there forever now, but there's always the chance that we wake up one day and it's just not there. But ignoring all that, even with archiving, services are still gone. Sure, you can potentially find old sites or posts from 30 years ago (if you can remember the URL or know how to look), When GameFAQs goes, you may be able to track down and reread old posts from the site, but the site itself (as an active entity) will still be gone. At least some of the sites I have nostalgia for that are gone forever were old-school chat sites and MUDs that are just gone forever. Zeus posted... That's what you were saying like a decade ago! Nah. I was already complaining about the site a decade ago, but I was a lot more optimistic about its lifespan and activity then than I am now. Zeus posted... Tempus fugit. Like I'll sometimes mention, a teenager once asked for directions and I started to tell him where something was, only for somebody I was with to interrupt and mention those landmarks I referenced hadn't been around for longer than the kid had been alive. Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. I've definitely noticed I've been having a lot more "Yeah, over there by where the [insert landmark here] used to be" type conversations over the last decade or so. Usually it's when I'm talking to someone who actually knows the places I'm referring to so they get it, but occasionally one will slip out and you suddenly realize that this person you're talking to is going to have no idea where the old 7-11 that burned down 20 years ago was, so it's not going to help them very much for you to mention it. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

Let's be honest, "We know this is unpopular, but we're going to do it anyway and just ignore all negative feedback until you all lose interest" has been official GameFAQs policy for like 20 years now. Nearly every major change was followed by people pointing out why it was a terrible idea and how much they hated it, with the official response generally being "Suck it up or fuck off, we don't care." --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

Maybe I should have elaborated more. I meant those two boards becoming more active. By becoming the new CE I meant being the most active social boards on site to replace the one that went private. Like when LUE went private another public board had to be one that got the traffic of those locked out of LUE. Yeah, that's basically what I meant. "Becoming more active" means new users coming in. If enough new users come in, they start to outnumber and overwhelm the people already there (most of whom have been there for more than a decade). Over time, the board culture would start to shift. Over a long enough time, and with enough CE refugees flooding in, PotD essentially stops being PotD and just becomes CE-Lite (or New-CE). Most PotDers wouldn't see that as a good thing. It's a problem CE refugees (refuCEes?) are going to create no matter where they choose to go, unless they just pick a completely empty dead board as a replacement CE. Flooding into boards with preexisting members/activity/history/culture is just going to kill those boards instead. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

A small tip only signals to them that you're cheap. 100% agree. Which is why... slacker03150 posted... I think this might have been the smallest tip I have ever given. I left 1.50 tip. The smallest tip I've ever left was three pennies and a nickel, deliberately tossed into a coffee cup (that still had a little puddle of coffee in it). It sends a very clear message that you're not just being cheap (or forgot to tip/are foreign if you leave nothing), you're actively delivering a "fuck you" for terrible service and/or attitude. When you're fishing your sticky 8 cents out of a cup you know I didn't just forget you, you know for absolute sure that I outright hated you. That's extremely rare for me, though. I'm usually pretty generous with tips (I've had servers go out of their way to thank me for overtipping), and I'm fairly understanding and forgiving if a server looks incredibly harried or exhausted and wind up making minor mistakes (so much so that I've been out with other people who refuse to tip because they were pissed about something, and I just tipped for them because I felt bad for the server). But I definitely have my limits. Most of the servers I've had issues with had shitty attitudes even before they came to my table the first time, or seemed to not give a single shit about anything resembling customer service. And at a certain point, I stop caring about whether or not you're having a bad day and feel like that justifies your behavior, because it's not (and shouldn't be) my problem. I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've had experiences like that though (and that's over the span of like 30 years or so). --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

At no point have I ever even considered reading Reddit's front page. If I'm on Reddit, it's for a specific sub, not a broad overview of the site. The site as a whole is just too big for a broad overview This is more or less what I always say to people who complain that Reddit is terrible. Obviously, if you're going to the front page, letting the site show you random "hot topics", or otherwise not curating your experience at all it's going to be 100% crap. But if you actively seek out specific subreddits, you can find a ton of them that are either relatively tame or outright polite, where people have interesting and civil conversations, with minimal shitposting and trolling. There are definitely subreddits that enforce draconian levels of groupthink or that downvote the hell out of anything resembling individual thought, and there are definitely subreddits that are like an overflowing river of digital diarrhea, but you can find a lot of great communities if you look hard enough. Reddit's honestly one of the better social media sites right now, as long as you use it right. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

As ridiculous as GFaqs is, when you put it that way, it has been a constant entity in my life. Predates Facebook and outlasted MySpace...but not my AOL.com account! I ignore my AOL accounts for years at a time, and when I do remember to log into them they've usually had all of their email purged due to inactivity and I need to reset them, but they're still there (as far as I know - I've only reactivated one of them in the last 10 years or so). Pretty much every site I used to frequent in the 90s is long gone, and most of the 00s sites as well. Everyone always used to act like "nothing ever goes away once it's online", but stuff purges and vanishes all the time. And with most search engines becoming more and more crap with every passing day, it's getting harder to find even the stuff that is still out there somewhere. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

it'll still be a stain to be used against them for a website to fail within two years of their acquisition, so I think they want to draw it out. make it an inevitable "gamefaqs wasn't going to last forever" thing but a little faster I'd argue the exact opposite. If you shut something down right after acquiring it, you can blame the previous owners for ruining it and say you're just shuttering an asset you never really wanted in the first place, that you just got stuck with as part of a larger deal. The longer you wait after acquiring it, the more it starts to look like you're the one who ran it into the ground, because it looks like you wanted to keep it but failed to run it properly. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

They obviously dont care about the site, and want it to fail. So, why havent they just shut it down already? I think this is the thing. It's not that they want the site to fail, it's more that they just have no idea how to fix it/make it relevant again. But they also don't care all that much, so while they'll make the occasional half-assed change, they're just making things worse.

I'm reading The Once and Future King by T. H. White. It's kind of like Tolkien, where The Hobbit is more lighthearted and aimed at a bit of a younger audience, and then Lord of the Rings winds up being a much more serious and mature story.

I almost feel like they're trying to kill the site... like they're just saying go away so we can shut it down lol. agesboy posted... they bought it as a package deal with cnet so it's not implausible they literally do not care about gamefaqs at all or they want to actively kill it off because there's no foreseeable revenue source for the site They don't really need to drive people off for that. If they wanted to shut the site down they could do it tomorrow and it wouldn't really matter in any meaningful way. They could also easily just shut down every social board and only keep the game boards, or shut down all forum activity and just keep the FAQs (sort of like IMDB did years ago), or otherwise try to keep the site as a monetizable resource without having to deal with all the pesky annoying users. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

Personally, though, I'd be more put off by the aggressive ads than by any off-topic discussion or trolling that might be happening on the game board I was looking at. This site is honestly half the reason I use uBlock, and my understanding is that it's only gotten worse in the years since I swore off browsing it unprotected. I accidentally loaded this site earlier today with NoScript off, and holy shit does it look terrible when it actually functions the way it's supposed to. I can't imagine using the site for any length of time without blocking 99% of the scripting. I stopped allowing the site to load ads like 15 years ago, because I kept getting ads that were either locking/freezing my PC or that were active malware. At which point I decided that if they couldn't be bothered to quality control the ads they were delivering, I couldn't be bothered to give a shit if I was costing them ad revenue by blocking every ad. I've never been given a single reason since to change that stance. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

I'm already pretty much the most harmful a user can be to them: I use the site and its bandwidth, but I block all of the ads and therefore generate no revenue to pay for that. I'm sure they still make something off of the various other browsing data they gather and sell, but I expect I'm still taking more than they make off of me. I'm the same. But we're both still adding to their numbers. When they go to advertisers and say "We have X unique user hits per day" or "We have X amount of activity on the site", that helps determine how much they charge for ads. Blocking ads will translate to how many click-throughs or views any given ad gets (which also affects ad costs), but simply by posting here at all and generating activity we're still contributing to their ability to make money. If you really want to hurt them, not coming here at all hurts worse than being an active user who just uses adblock. Because you're both no longer directly contributing to site activity statistics, but the more people leave, the more it encourages other people to potentially leave because they no longer have anyone else to interact with. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

I'm betting this will be a landslide in favor of Winchester. I'm betting 90% of the people on PotD have never seen MASH and have no idea who either of these people are. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

I haven't played that since the ps2 era. But if you want it for the story, you could try an easier difficulty. Playing on hard mode and finding that it's hard; isn't that the point? They were probably hoping for actual engaging game mechanics, not just bullshit QTEs (and the QTEs in that game were definitely terrible in general). It isn't really fun trying to play Simon Says while a movie is playing in the background that you can't really watch because you're focused on the blinking colors. Especially in a story-heavy game where the devs spend most of their time masturbating over how brilliant they think the story is. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

Yes it does. He killed two people. I'd say that's a lot of people when you should really be killing no people. Two's not even enough to rate as a serial killer or mass murderer. That's just straight up amateur stuff. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |

People get real defensive when trying to justify or deny their addictions Probably because other assholes have a tendency to get really judgmental and preachy about how other people choose to live their lives. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family |
