|
|
Is anyone here with a NeoGAF account willing to start a thread there linking my arcade culture article?
I do have an account there, but I've only made a dozen posts or so, and besides for obvious reasons it would be unwise of me to start the thread myself. I don't want to get caught up in another week-long 10-page thread, basically, let alone get beaten to death, assraped and banned.
But someone else could simply link it and then wash their hands off it...
Anyways, I'd greatly appreciate it if someone did this. |

I know a guy who's become a frequent poster. I'll try to get him to link it, but he has been quiet with me as of the last few days. |

| You'll only be assraped and banned if you do anything dickish after starting a masturbatory thread. Just make it yourself. |

| What is the deal with gaf/neogaf? Seems like a bunch of folks have history there, and I've never heard good things. My only experience with them was seeing those wonderful banned message sigs ("post this on the insert credit forums. Ban lifted: never") I still love those sigs. |

Fuckin' good times. Didn't Legal Step get that 'post this on the insert credit forums' one? It was, like, some original Axe/DPS guys doing this wonderfully deadpan trolling, kind-of trying to come off as ineffectual, but stupid people would fall for it anyway.

I am confused? is GAF and neogaf a pair of interchangeble terms? I always thought GAF was the GaesAreFun.com forums. Are the two connected in any way? _________________

Yeah, sites try these things because it is how they want to do them. I'm not really in favor of trying to circumvent that. |

I have a NeoGAF account, I even signed in just yesterday! I don't know about starting a thread though, I doubt I even have the ability since I don't post there at all. It'd be weird too, trying to do it in a way that didn't seem like blatant advertising (schild? are you there, schild?). _________________

I have over 1000 posts on neogaf.
what the hell is wrong with me.
I think I like that place more than I care to admit. Lately I lurk more than post, though, since, well, every time I open my mouth I'm either ignored or yelled at. _________________

Defending Luke Smith? He's like the crown prince of GAFdom, with Frankie as king. Tim Rogers also is barely ever mentioned. He would need to talk about sales figures a lot more to crack that social circle. |

I had registered an Pikachu account at the GAF years and years ago, and my very first thread (which, incidentally, was also my very first post -- they didn't have any requirements for starting threads back then) was called "Respect the English language, please?".
Two hours and a dozen posts later I was banned.
So sometime last year I registered an account called "adoniszero" in order to be able to search the forums for scans (if you don't have an account you can't use the search tool).
So yeah, I basically would have started an "arcade culture" thread with the adoniszero account -- pretending that I was in no way related with the article's author -- if I wasn't 100% sure that some asshat like legatob would show up and unmask me.
So is no one going to do me this favor? Toups? Anybody?
It will be quite fun!
(Or at least mildly so.) |

Don't worry yourself too much; it's not a big deal.
I am thinking I might ask jiji. He is respected on GAF, as far as I know, he liked the article and he also seems to like me. Perhaps he'll be up for it. |
