Toast's a nice guy. He's just a bit busy and probably doesn't really know how to interact with CE yet.

I suspect that SBAllen did indeed resign. Though it probably had to do with being dragged into working on a bunch of Fandom stuff he didn't care about more than general burnout.

I can't speak to what others might have said. My personal advice to him was to take it slow and learn the culture before stepping in.

Can Lead Moderators also put people into purgatory, or only admins?

Because now I'm imagining DToast sitting behind a huge desk, and SBAllen and Error walking in every hour with a huge stack of suspended accounts waiting for the admin decision.

On a serious note, this is telling, given the changes already made after the Fandom acquisition. And while you can perform your PR to make all these things sound fine, I imagine there's more going on behind closed doors.

We're probably headed towards some truly controversial changes to the site.

Yeah, we should all be ready for the site to get a lot worse.

I'll probably just hang out at the game boards exclusively again. I left CE for a couple years and only came back because I got bored at work during the pandemic. Now I spend my entire work days on CE instead of working. I should have never come back lol.

The boards will likely stick around, they're the site's biggest draw, but we're most likely going to be getting a lot of terrible r*ddit-style revamps coming. Without a legacy voice like Allen the Fandom people aren't going to understand that the people who use gamefaqs want it to be a last vestige of web 1.0 message boards.

Get ready for CE and pretty much all other Social and Community boards to be 86'd.

The gaming boards will likely remain due to them being an archive of information, but I can see them at least being set to a read-only state, and the Q&A pages being how people get help going forward.

What has likely happened imo is SBAllen automated the process to auto-purgatory things, by default, if Toast can't get to it.

AI has taken us so far, from the days of the forums start in 1999.

Upvotes would be fine as long as topics stay chronological by default instead of threads within topics sorted by popular.

SBAllen demoted? Well I voted for him (literally!)

I still think there should be a board called "The Pasture" where all us old mods go to live out our days under a flag of the old CjayC regime.

Yea, I absolutely loathe Reddit's threaded style. Sometimes there's a topic about a discussion that I'm interested in that I'll follow every now and then. I want to read all of the new posts. I hate having to scan through each thread to see which thread had the new post.

Allen probably got sick of all of us and decided to not have to deal with this shit anymore.

Or he retired.

Or he got a nice severance package in exchange for staying on a little longer to help with whatever transition.

I know it's a longshot but I hope we eventually get more communication about this site's plans. There's a balance to be struck with too much communication (mostly self sabotage from lack of experience) and too little. I'd like to think everyone knows this but... It's still rare.


It'll be more hilariously awful things like closing 261, where they just spring bullshit on us without any notice and then scramble to word some nonsense statement after the fact.
