the crazy ones are where they ask the same poll and you see how the results have changed as the userbase has gotten older

there's one that's like "would you let your children play violent video games" or something like that, it went from unanimously yes to mixed

Yea I also wonder where did the traffic go. Like one poll in 2009 had 87k results. The same poll in 2012 had 41k results. I wonder what happened from that time period that so many users stopped answering the polls.

people started googling "link to the past walkthrough" and going straight to the guide instead of going to the gamefaqs homepage

this kinda thing happened to most web 1.0 sites

Today I learned reddit considers gamefaqs polls and sexy MLP fan art to be similar posts.
