#GBAtemp.TA needs to be more well known. Pretty much dead there.
We don't like the fact that channel is associated with GBAtemp.net. Actually, many of us don't like that it exists.

There's plenty of places on the internet where you can go to chat with no rules - but not on GBAtemp.
It gives the network somewhat of a bad name.

e: OHH #gbatemp.net

e2-3: still efnet? Wouldn't want people to get the channel confused with another channel that has 'gbatemp' in the title. It's just silly to put it on efnet and claim no connection to the other *temp channels in the same breath. There are going to be plenty of people joining the wrong channel on accident and ya'll know it.

irc (for a message board) is usually just a drama factory anyway. Good luck with this one guys.

Did anyone else notice that the Rules & User Guide page contains rules, but no user guide?
I wrote a guide and linked to it on the Rules page. You can get to it here. I checked through it and it seems OK to me, can anyone see any problems? Please let me know if there's something I missed.

Very nice, thank you. I do think the link to the user guide in the IRC rules page should be bigger and bolder, but at least it's there.

Is there any way to get to the IRC rules page from the portal? I don't see a link anywhere but this topic.

We broke the record.

If anyone wants channel stats, or a breakdown of what happens in that channel, look here: http://awesome.f-everything.net/gbatemp.irc.html

I'm surprised that no one has replied to me yet.

Sounds like you're just trying to start shit with that comment...maybe thats why.

On topic: #gbatemp.net should be like a daycare, you're only allowed so many members per op present >_>

edit: I expected it pretty much. I vote that Spikey be de-opped for a while (or a long time). He can't handle power in IRC. He doesn't deserve it.

How would you know?
If you expected to be banned then maybe you can't handle being on the channel, it is a privilege not a right.

He is a power abuser, it is to be expected.

What HB has stated is a fact. Are you already asking to end #gbatemp.net?

    @ColdBlitz, i forgot breath of the wild released for the Wii u

    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
