as a canadian leftist i have no idea what grimlyn is talking about. Trudeau is more or less as leftist a leader as you can get, and though he's hated by the conservative alberta that I live in, leftists don't hate him.

You haven't heard anything on the complaints of pipelines, Saudi arms dealing, reneging on electoral reform, or about SNC Lavalin? At most from the further left you get acceptance about weed legalization but Trudeau's far from the leftist dream. Trudeau wasn't even the first choice in 2015, but the NDP just cratered from the niqab debate and ABC voters had to shift their bets to the LPC norm. although if you're in Alberta I guess your frame of reference for "canadian leftist" could be quite far off, which isn't a criticism mind you --- GuessMyUserName's account's very own account ...

yeah I covered this in the last topic but brownface is really only offensive to white people who don't understand the actual implications of racism to they act hyper offended by everything just to be safe. Or in this specific case it's "offensive" to right wing people who want to act superior to the left.

Our social boards also encompasses everything, except for adult material. This site was bigger than Reddit until 2009 or so, before we went full leftist. who exactly comes to gfaqs for our social boards? That didn't already come here for something gaming related. Reddit you can start using for something completely unrelated to gaming, go "hey i want to talk about games" and then still use reddit. GFAQs is not getting any influx of users like that. But you know, continue living in your fantasy world where GFAQs and Reddit are comparable. --- "First thing that crosses my mind: I didn't get any GameFAQs Karma yesterday."

LUE, Current Events, and Random Insanity all used to get such users and were often generating a ton of offsite traffic. The media social boards (TV, movies, whatever) periodically did the same. LUE has been closed for what, 15 years now? Also this is just not true in the slightest. Those boards maybe kept users that stopped being interested in games as much, but they were -never- the draws of this site. No one randomly stumbled onto GFAQs for non-gaming reasons. Not in any significant number anyway. --- "First thing that crosses my mind: I didn't get any GameFAQs Karma yesterday." Math Murderer after getting his appendix removed. ... Copied to Clipboard!

No one randomly stumbled onto GFAQs for non-gaming reasons. I did! I was looking for anime pictures and I randomly found some blog linking to a discussion on the Paranormal/Conspiracy board about government oppression and such. That's how I first got interested in the site. (But I stayed because of gaming discussion on the Square-Enix and other RPG boards) ChaosTonyV4 posted... Reddits format fucking sucks.

I agree that GameFAQs isn't exactly an utopia. But fuck, man, Reddit is such a steaming pile nowadays. It could be enjoyable in its earlier days, but it's really become a dumpster fire. The site's setup makes it especially prone to bots, astroturfing and vote manipulation. The moderators and admins are a different breed in terms of narcissism and power-tripping. And the vast majority of users, especially on the default/popular subs, come across as dumber than dog shit and proud of it. (There's also a weird self-loathing streak alongside the anti-intellectualism.) All of these problems ramped up considerably as Reddit become more mainstream, mainly from 2016 onward. The common counterargument is to tailor the site how you see fit and filter out the rubbish subs. This helps, but honestly, I feel like many of Reddit's worst characteristics have seeped into even the smaller subreddits. I still get use out of the "strictly functional" subreddits like /r/vinyldeals, but there's no way I'd participate in the actual communities at this point. Not shitting on your opinion specifically - more power to ya - but those are my two cents on Reddit itself. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. ... Copied to Clipboard!
