I remember when any random Poll of the Day would get vote totals well in the six figure range.


IIRC that was because of the first character battle final (which i think was Mario vs Cloud) and people were scouring all over the internet telling people to go to GameFAQs and vote for one of them to win. It was like an intergalactic Sony vs Nintendo war.

Too serious now. Too many political topics. Not enough interesting, fun discussion about hypotheticals or anecdotes. There used to be a lot of fun fads too. Man fan, the dog was later destroyed, etc. Even the stories were probably fake were fun. You had at least one of those everyday. Also, the place is kind of a ghost town relatively speaking. CE in the early 2010s was like rush hour every day. Post your topic, and if no one sees it, it'll be on the next page within minutes.

Were political topics ever allowed on system/game boards? Doesnt seem like the case now. I mostly ignore political topics because its just whining back and forth. Most topics I see on social boards are political topics and rate this girls ass topics. Its slightly hard to find interesting topics or maybe I dont look hard enough/spend enough time here.

This is my main problem. The user base aged up, so everybody's all crotchety now. It went from being a place of fun shit posting escapism, to venting about the shit i come here to get away from.

You can always go post on ngg. It's very similar to CE it just has topicality.

It was Link vs Cloud, my dude, and Link stomps every time. Mario is like a mid/late-rounder but no finalist. Kinda like my main guy Mega.

I remember when secret boards were a thing, where you could find thriving social communities on random ass Atari or NES game boards. There would be like scavenger hunts to find certain boards as well.

How dare you forget about L-Block's 2007 championship win. He even beat Link.

What can gamefaqs do to bring at least half of the people back? Or is it all downhill from here.

I'm not really an expert, but it would probably take something drastic that would never happen in order to make this place a bigger spot again.

Hardcore advertising and some kind of sponsoring with game companies.

Shit that would never happen unless some billionaire with a passion for this site bought it and decided to show it some love.

I remember way back when a moderator on this site got tricked into sending a video blowing a kiss to one of the KOS crew. I remember he was half naked, obese as fuck, blowing a kiss and saying "Love you" to a catfish lol

It may have been a regular user but my memory is stuck thinking it was a mod.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Someone posted a topic claiming to have in game footage of ganondorf. Everyone already kind of figured he was going to be in but he wasn't officially announced yet and this was hot on the coat tails of prime Rick rolling and Nintendo aggressively removing leaks from YouTube. The link posted was to an obscure video streaming website which was ostensibly to get around the copyright claims.

It was a video alright but it wasn't ganondorf or Rick astley.
