Are you a Vipera dupe lmao /s

Nah that’s me.


Worst community I’ve ever been apart of? Well, I can’t remember what it was called, but it was a Java programming forum. I was 13 and I just needed help understanding the current multi-threading convention, as it changes with every single update. This was a few years back, before I new the truth about how terrible programming forums were in general.

I tend to dislike communities where questioning mods/staff and bringing discussion about them is considered bad or punishable. Feels like north korea, and i know a few too many communities that are authoritative like this.

Surely GBAtemp would fall under that as well.
the rules said:
https://gbatemp.net/help/terms under the "General Forum Decency" heading.
If you have an issue with a member or moderation decision contact the member in question or a staff member via PM. DO NOT air your grievances publicly in the original topic or otherwise.

It is generally observed that allowing backtalk, questioning and back channel grumbling does not improve matters and as such most places will have something like it.
I would agree many places I have seen are unfair, inconsistent, frequently serve to create an echo chamber and are wildly out of line with notions underpinning things most would otherwise consider fair game but the idea that questioning staff decisions needs to be handled appropriately is nothing new or drastic from where I sit.

LunaticOutpost, because not only do the moderators there ignore the fact people are cheating ways to get certain amounts of views on their threads and attention over others but that users are able to like their own comments for star ranks just to make it seem as though people actually agree with everything being said. It's the most wacky fucked up system I've ever seen by far.

Also I like how many people here voted GBAtemp as the worst community yet donated to their patreon...a love and hate triangle maybe? :creep:

uhhhhhhhhhh ever heard of a little game called "roblox"

Jesus christ, I regret joining that game.
Several filters, a bunch of kids, an easily-abused system that can easily be fixed and while Jailbreak is an overrated and broken game, it's still on #1.
WHY?!
