I appericate GBATemp

So I've been here at GBATemp for almost 3 years (or is it 4) and I don't think I've really learned to apperciate this place until just a few minutes ago.

I just went on an old forum I use to be apart of and looked through my PMs and Post....Man were the people there rude, unhelpful, inactive, way to strict, and pretty much looked down on those not a part of their "elite"

I actually think I left that place to be here more. The community here is much larger, helpful, friendlier and inviting. I can't think of a time where I've never got the help i needed when I was in need and I actually feel a part of GBAtemp (unlike feeling like an outcast at the other site)

I just want to say that I appreciate all that GBATemp has done for me and I am thankful that I've found this place. It's so awesome and I'm glad to be apart of this community.

Here's to many years to come fellow tempers :grog:

GBAtemp is a great place.
Everywhere else for me is so strict and power mad aswell.
I'm glad that here the mods aren't like 'i'm a mod and i can ban you if i want'

You are right, the other sites I am kinda active on or left pretty much was either because the community sucked or the higher ups were power hungry.
GBAtemp has a nice balance of a good community and human mods. Unlike most sites where I believe the mods are bots now.
I don't think I could be this active on any other site.

That's pretty much how the mods acted to me...Giving me pointless warnings and closing my threads for no reasons what so ever. I could understand my frustration about it back in the day cause I was irritated justed reading my post/PMs yesterday. Also the one thing I couldn't believe is that I has a petty argument with a mod...like WTF! Mods aren't suppose to bicker back and forth with a member like this guy did with me.....It was just unprofessional (or unmod like)

    @BigOnYa well, starting with, idk which emulator should i use for switch, i got a gtx 1650, do you know which one would it better for my pc?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    The switch emulators on pc rely on your CPU mostly, and they only use a single core, so GPU not as important as a good CPU. I don't use switch emulator, but many here do, and willing to help.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 do you want to chime in, don't you use yuzu or ryujinx? Which do you prefer?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Morganna I'd say try them both, and see which work better for your setup, good luck, and have fun!
  • Morganna @ Morganna:
    i tried just yuzu so far, not even played, just open the game to see if it run
