Why can't you just quit?

Quit what? Advertising another board, or GameFAQs entirely? If you mean the former, I did quit, for about 6 months or so. And the latter is really, really unlikely.

Why don't the Mods use that URL instead of this board?

We've been inquiring about that, but haven't gotten anywhere yet. I decided to give it a break for about 6 months, maybe I'll ask them again soon.

So since you're making this topic here, you'd be completely fine if someone went to that board and asking the people there if they want to come here right?

In all actual fact, it has been over six months since I created a topic advertising said board. No one in their right mind would call this "spamming".


Dude, you're entire account is revolved around promoting this stupid board
That doesn't make it any less annoying

*your

And if you'd get your head out of your unmentionables and actually pay attention to reality, you'd realize that I do quite a lot more than just promote the board.

Just a small bump. I promise, I'll only maintain this topic for 2-3 days.

You know, I find it very strange how much of a hard-on the internet generation has for so-called "censorship", when most of what is being complained about isn't in any way comparable to actual censorship.

Let's be clear: "censorship" is supposed to mean the active suppression of facts and/or dissent, usually undertaken to solidify the grasp on power held by some party or autocrat. Censorship frequently involves not just the stifling of discourse and the editing or silencing of troublesome voices, but also violence, intimidation, and sometimes downright murder. It is an action undertaken by totalitarian regimes, it causes hardship, and it impedes progress.

Having a post moderated on GameFAQs isn't censorship - that's just called a ToS violation. It means you broke the rules you agreed to follow when you signed up for this 100% completely free-to-use site. In the same way that if you shouted "piss cock balls fuck" in the middle of a fancy restaurant you would be asked to leave, you are not being censored so much as you are being taken to task for being an asshole and violating the rules of decent human conduct.

Equating internet moderations to censorship is a bit like calling someone who isn't a vegetarian a mass murderer - you're ridiculously blowing the former out of proportion and dis-empowering the label that's supposed to be used for the latter.

Hear, hear!

reported for board invasion.

Actually, this doesn't qualify as board invasion, and the last time I created a topic here, a lead moderator backed me up and said it was perfectly fine.

Stop spamming that shitty board on here. Every time you do this literally no one cares

In all actual fact, it has been over six months since I created a topic advertising said board. No one in their right mind would call this "spamming". Another fact is that, as already mentioned here, we've received several visitors to the board as a direct result of my creating a thread here, who have gone out of their way to personally thank me for doing so.

Also, if you actually didn't care, you wouldn't go to the trouble to create a rude post in this thread, bumping it back to the front page, you'd just ignore it and get on with your life.

...why would anyone want to do that?

You might be surprised to find out that a fair amount of people want to do exactly that. I've received several comments from people saying they've wanted a board like that for years, and several comments saying that people found the board through a post I made here many months ago and thanked me for it.

Hello! You've probably noticed that there are a lot of topics on the GameFAQs Poll of the Day (PotD) board that aren't related to the PotD that can be found on the GameFAQs front page. That's because this board is not topicality-enforced. Thus, it can be difficult to find information about the polls that are featured every day, helped in part by the fact that this board doesn't archive threads.

So, if you're one of those people who would like to talk about the PotD, have I got news for you! There is a community board dedicated to discussing the GameFAQs PotD, and nothing else. It's called Actual Poll of the Day (APotD). We've existed for not quite a year now, and have built up a modest following of users. We'd like to welcome you to come post over there, if the offerings on this board aren't to your liking.

If you have no interest in any of the above, then by all means, feel free to completely ignore this topic. If you're interested, then you can visit the board by clicking this link (which leads to the board rules): https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1324-actual-poll-of-the-day-board/75742112
