I think you do need to "tear down" to "rebuild" -- I don't think Fandom will destroy GameFaqs. I think they are going to update it, modernize it, and begin appealing a new, younger, more mainstream audience. Pretty much what this site use to be around 2010-2013.

Will it work. IDK. But I do recognize the effort, and am along for the ride.
Shut the fuck up

I'm signing up to discord. I really didn't want to because I prefer the forum style over chats (and prefer gamefaqs in general), but we have no choice at this point.
I'd join a discord server for our lost board. Wouldn't be too hard to DM folks with the invite.

What good is feedback when we've seen first hand they'll just look at it and say "fuck you, i do what I want"?

I think quite a few of the current mods care about the state of things and are expressing that. I don't think that they will be listened to though since Allen couldn't convince these same admins they were making bad decisions.

That's assuming that he doesn't want Fandom to turn this into a soulless husk.

After reading his postings, I would not bet on that.

I quite enjoyed the sex board, but you occasionally got a really disturbing topic on thereand if you were to go to the archival posts from 5+ years ago there were alot of topics made by people who openly, and willingly declared themselves to be incelsusually within the topic title itself.

So if Fandom is trying to rid the platform of stuff like that, then it was justified. I would have preferred they just added a purge stipulation to it like what CE has, so nothing remains up for long.

But I mean, sometime last year we had this dude posting 2,000 word essays back to back as replies in a topic about anime body pillows and they were beyond disturbing.

Anyone who remembers the topic Im referencing probably supports the no hornyposting rule to some extent.

Its not about literal children who might be using the services, its about normies not all that familiar with internet culture.

Any paid user aquisition funnel is going to be dipping deep into mainstream society on account of that ad spend largely coming from social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

Therefore, you want the end of that funnel to lead to an atmosphere thats welcoming and easy to engage withas oppose to one that makes you shudder, and want to take a shower.

So because weird people sometimes make weird topics whole boards deserve to be shutdown

In this case everywhere you go should be banned because youre the creator of the horrid reddit gamefaqs crew

Stero, let me put it to you this way.

Why should anyone join your new board? What reason does anyone have for going out of their way and spending their free time there? You've not only cut and run once, but anyone on the sexuality board knows that you often have a (rather tiresome) one track mind. On a board about sexuality, you almost exclusively talked about incels.

But more to the point, what guarantee do we have that Fandom won't shut the board down? They've already closed multiple social boards without warning. Kind of hard to trust the survivability of any of them right now.

I mean, who even had trouble with the religion board?
He shills for nft's. I mean actually shilling too. I remember he was bragging about it on c.e. before but that was a while ago.. I remember he use to always show up on mistresspaige topics when she was revealing photos of herself( like an idiot) simping for her. Probably shills for Fandom too. He was kinda a douchebag. Spent most of his time bragging about his personal life

Not sticking up for him per se, but I simply find it unlikely he had an impact

Didn't know about the subreddit. Is there any proof that this actually changed anything? Fandom seemed set on this course anyway.

If he did have an actual impact, I will admit I am wrong. I would find that surprising is all.

You have also just seemed out to get him. I do find him annoying at times, but I still give the benefit of the doubt for each interaction. Just how I am.

That's a shame if he really did that. I have seen him make a couple comments about not just hiding behind the label, and acting like life will never improve because of it. But that's all I have seen.

The worst I have experienced personally was my ex wife telling me that all our communication issues were 100% my fault because I am neurodivergent and she is not. Just shitty.

I have no alts, nor have I ever.
I didn't want this site to die (as it existed before all this shit ...now I guess there's not much point left to it), and I'm pissed they closed Politics and all these other boards and instituted these stupid not-rules (rules would actually be posted).
Im happy they closed politics. That board needed to die. Way too many people trying to start flame wars over political discussions. The last thing we need is the political ideologies of groups of people who never leave their own homes. Gamers and politics doesn't go together.

When it comes to politics, the only difference between the politics board and CE is that most of the blatant shitposters and trolls can't get back into CE. The big topics about politics that blow up on here are otherwise nigh identical.

They'd should've just put karma limits on the politics board like people'd been asking them to for fucking years instead of forcing us to come here and then putting karma limits here.
