Most forums on the Internet hate GAF, I've found. Most forums are a complete fucking mess, of course. *shrugs*

I don't get the obsession that spin-off GAF forums and non-GAF forums have with GAF. It's just... a forum? Sure, there's some industry people like Frankie posting, but CliffyB used to post at SomethingAwful back in the day. ZOMG SA IS A TERRIBLE FORUM AND WE NEED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE POSTING AT A SPIN-OFF FOR BANNED SA PEOPLE AND RAGERAGERAGEHATEHATEHATEWHYYOUSOSTUPIDAN.
Oh, wait. SA does have a spin-off forum!

Only ban I kinda experienced was EazyB, and then, I was still a lurker without awaiting his activation.
Basicly, he shopped the head of a Bungie developer on the statue of Sadam because EazyB thought he did a horrible job on Halo 3's matchmaking.

LosDaddie said:Definitely not. Himuro's ban wasn't funny at all. It was a display of how sad of a life he lives. The guy got angry about a girl flaunting her titties. :lol That right there is a sign of a guy who gets no pussy.
No, what was funny was reading the White Knights coming to someone as pathetic as Himuro's defense....and in multiple threads. How do you defend someone throwing a temper tantrum over a female's titties? :lol
Let him be miserable with all the other banned GAFers at EB, or wherever they sulk at now. Good riddance
Hope you enjoyed Lunaclover posting nude portraits of herself. If you didn't then you must get no pussy yourself. :lol

So I looked up e-vil-bore and found that thread and if anything just make fun of certain gaf topics and discuss other matters in other threads. And it has a lot of the good people gaf used to have, himu, wrath, segata, fistful, etc.
Its not for me since gaf is enough for my forum time, but doesn't look too bad.
EDIT: I quoted the wrong guy lol! I guess that doesn't need a quote anyway.

I am sorry but I am going to have to disagree with you. I do agree that he did not handle the situation correctly at all but if someone keeps posting about their tits over and over it becomes a sort of attention seeking problem, and he had the right to call her out for that. The way he went about it was awful though, and deserved a ban. As for complaining about a girl always posting about her titties, he seems like someone who would get more pussy than a guy who eagerly awaits the next time she mentions her titties on a forum, and defends her doing that. If you get pussy in real life, you don't need some girl on an internet forum striving for attention all the time. The people who supported it were the actual guys getting no pussy.
I don't know the members name but there was a recent junior member that was Persian that argued that a genocide against Arabs would be beneficial for the world and that he wouldn't mind starting it. He kept posting over and over about it in a thread and each post became sicker and sicker. He tried backtracking about saying he needed medication but it was too late.

That makes no sense. :lol There's quite a bit difference between not liking some nude pics, and throwing a temper tantrum about a lady flaunting her titties.

I've only checked there a couple times by following some links here on GAF, and that place was...er I dunno...kinda lame & sad. But yeah, GAF is more than enough for me.

:lol :lol Only sexually frustrated guys, like Himuro, complain about girls flaunting their titties. If you're getting pussy on the regular, you're used to certain girls acting that way because, ya know, there are a lot of females who use their assets like that. It's quite normal for (some) ladies to do so, and not something to get upset over.

I miss Dragona. Punishing casual misogyny was one of the things that makes this place feel more civilized than most forums.

News flash: Koshiba isn't going to have sex with you for defending her honor from the Himu barbarian. She had a host of mental problems and used this forum to stroke her ego, and you guys fell for it like flies. I have nothing against her, and instead shake my head about the white knights who STILL seem to think she'll invite them to Florida for a free lapdance.
She was attractive, sure. But most people were more attracted to the idea of taking advantage of a hot nerd with emotional problems.

For some of us, it was more about Himu being a dick than Koshiba being a chick. My missus is hotter than Koshiba (to me), lives 3000 miles closer and will happily dance for me. Doesn't stop me thinking Himu was out of order for talking to her like that.PhoenixDark said:
Crazy thing is, I'm sure I liked the guy before those posts, I remember thinking he'd been hacked at the time, like it was totally out of character. Now whenever his name comes up, all I can think is 'petty little frustrated troll'. Sad stuff.

I don't miss Dragona a single bit and I would scream and beg if she suddenly appeared from the ether.
Holy crap I forgot about greatness Gone. there was an ... interesting poster.

PhoenixDark said:
She must've been more active before my time because the Him-ban-thread was the first I had heard of her. And I didn't see any defending of her in that thread. There was actually White Knighting for Himuro there, and the Black Culture thread
This thread is amazing. I click on all these old threads linked and I see tonnes and tonnes of familiar names greyed out. People like Manabyte, I never knew were banned.
Also quite sad to see Segato go like that. It's really true that the quality of postings on GAF has gone downhill and the decline may have even accelerated somewhat in the last few years. These days, anything negative said in any kind of console exclusive thread would automatically be deried as "trolling" by the usual sheeps even though some of those posts do contain valid points worth discussing. The problem is, due to the size of the forum, a lot of members are either genuinely juvenile due to age or are just generally immature and too narrow-minded to consider someone else's perspective. There is a serious lack of critical thinking and objective reasoning in many threads and there are just too few mods to handle the massive amount of posts GAF gets.
Oh well, at least the admins/mods do make a pretty good distinction between what's considered "trolling" and what's not.

While we understood what he meant, the most of us didn't want him going down like that. It was just so random, even though we knew he didn't see GAF the same way after being inactive for a while.LosDaddie said:
It was just a quick way out for him to be elsewhere.

oh my god. the white knight bullshit is one of my most hated things about this forum. sometimes guys are the fucking assholes, and sometimes other guys will point it out with trying to be a fucking white knight.PhoenixDark said:
even if koshiba were using this forum to flatter herself, so fucking what, there were obviously a handful of posters that were happy to help her out whenever she posted a pic. and the funny thing is that the pic that himuro got pissed about was actually perfectly RELEVANT.

Haha, Eazy's actually a friend of mine IRL. The best part was he got an alt account a while ago called Lake Minnetonka where he pretended to be a little Mexican boy who played Halo with his cousins for a while.Tha Robbertster said:

Interesting thing I've noticed is that seen she left, I haven't seen any woman driver threads with a big sexism-fest going on, like what Dragona had to clean up many a time in the past. I've seen some with joking comments about them, but never outright misogyny.
Methinks a lot of the OT just enjoyed living on the edge.

Himu snapped after being tired of her constantly advertising her fake boobs and showing off for nerds. I'm not going to jump on him, he was making a point - highly exaggerated yes, but still valid to this day. He sacrificed himself to tell us something about ourselves.
Koshiba's pic in that thread was perfectly relevant sure, but I'm not going to jump on Himu for pointing out what many of us had been thinking.
