For some reason, if you agree to take the $1000, Gamefaqs is no more ( No spinoff sites either)

yeah
I tried to get away from it a few years ago and it felt great.
Then I had a girl issue, then a contest happened and I have been back since.

there's definitely a number i would agree upon. don't know what it is, but it'd be significantly higher than that

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

also, did we have a topic series like this a while ago? like "how much would you have to be paid to do this" or something? can't remember any particular examples, though

I vaguely remember that series, but I think so. If this question was mentioned, I don't remember it.

Nah. Even ignoring stuff like B8, I use guides and the game message boards too much for a one-time payment of $1000 to get rid of it all. That's really not that much money.

Then again, if GameFAQs disappears it's not like people will just stop compiling info on video games and some other site would become the new hub, whether it be Reddit or an increased focus on Wikias or what have you). But nah.

yeah, but how far does the hypothetical go

can I have an IRC chat with my b8 friends? can I text them or play online games with them? can I see them in real life or are they grayed out? do Tom and Llarian have to divorce because they've both posted on board 8?

(though, even if it were literally just the board, my answer is no - I like the community here)
