Do you believe the "trolls" are gone from Gamefaqs?
Vote
Do you think that's true? 67. GameFAQs (1995) Famous for its message boards almost as much as for its countless user-made game guides, GameFAQs was one of the first petri dishes of internet culture. Many a meme and young troll were spawned from the crevices of its Life, Universe and Everything (LUE) social board, which first prompted heavy moderating and eventually a complete ban for newer members. Though GameFaqs still exists today, most people have seemingly moved on, even the trolls. https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2020/09/100-websites-that-shaped-the-internet-as-we-know-it/ --- The Users have Spoken.

Yeah GameFAQs definitely has not kept up with the times. I love it here, but yeah it's definitely stuck in some very old design.

Are trolls ever gone from any presence on the internet?

GameFAQs has died for the same reason many sites have died. Internet users tend to prefer "all in one" sites like Reddit or Facebook to connect to similar interests. Video walkthroughs on YouTube have likely done their share of damage to GameFAQs, too.
I feel like the internet feels smaller than ever now, despite being larger than ever. It's strange. --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiCtAUrZbUk -- Defeating the Running Man of Ocarina of Time in a race since 01/17/2009. -- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Id argue trolls are more likely to stick around for longer.

Yes.
No one actually wants to troll this website anymore. Especially when so many that remain have their feelings hurt too easily. (Especially the Nintendo zealots.) Actual trolls don't want such easy prey. Plus, the word has lost all meaning when this website has basically reduced it to mean "anyone who disagrees with me". --- I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will fight to the death for my right to fight you to the death. -Stephen Colbert ...

lol, Gizmodo is talking about other sites becoming irrelevant? XD Most wikis suck for information still. They're either not detailed enough or make it too complex to reach the proper pages if you need a guide since they don't know how to do links correctly. Reddit just sucks because of how the commenting works. You'd never be able to see every comment on a page because of the formatting. --- Gamertag: Kegfarms, BF code: 2033480226, Treasure Cruise code 318,374,355, Steam: Kegfarms ... Copied to Clipboard!

Not to mention that the claim about Gamefaqs being "dead" is silly, considering it still attracts a large amount of traffic -- far more than countless other sites Less than 10% of what it had just 10 years ago. --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiCtAUrZbUk -- Defeating the Running Man of Ocarina of Time in a race since 01/17/2009. -- ...

Less than 10% of what it had just 10 years ago. Which is still many times more than many other active sites get. It's kind of a weird standard that something can stay small its entire existence and be regarded as completely healthy yet something else that gets a brief surge in popularity over a decade ago and has been a smaller, but still large size can be seen as dead. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

Maybe if they didnt mod you for saying anything the individual mod disagrees with/agrees with the human who voluntarily read/replied/marked you/picked sides etc.
