Yes, I'm aware what it means.

Are you aware that blue text is sarcasm?

Are you also aware that this is the random thoughts thread? Your post simply reminded me of that, nothing more. You don't need to be an asshat.

I don't know, but it seems every day now I come onto these forums to be disappointed. I stay here for the few regulars I like, but that number is diminishing as well.

I don't know if I can hold myself off from ranting all over the next "Top #" post that comes along.

Don't be afraid to comment on the crappy threads, Top 100's included. I think the very silent majority is bored / frustrated by them. The community should be policing itself in this regard.

Also - I hope our some of members can start to use the search function to see if a thread already exists about their question / topic. It isn't as important to make a post as to make an informative post. Some threads, like this one, are fine to post goofy / silly / sarcastic threads, that's important too, some levity and all - but the number of just pointless and repetitive threads ultimately hurts the community and causes important members to go looking elsewhere for the gaming information and camaraderie.

I'd rather have the shitty threads here than put up with the gaming communities and most other sites.

I swear, every single time I see a sale thread pop up with something I want... it happens when I'm out of money.

Problem is that a lot of those other gaming community types are starting to leak over into our community.

The more exposure this place gets (and retro gaming) the more it'll become that way. Just how it is. It's certainly nowhere near that level of suckage yet thank goodness.

I don't think it's large enough yet for it, but a VIP forum would be great for if/when this place turns into retro-gamespot forums.

Well they need to stop it. All these people getting into retro keep driving up our prices!

I remember when I bought Panzer Dragoon Zwei for 15 dollars about 4 years ago. Also you could get an NES for like 20 bucks in good condition.

Now, good luck finding PDZ for less than $25 for okay condition and the NES for less than $40 for an okay one.

But you don't become a VIP by just asking. You'll have to go through the three trials.
Since this signature affects old posts, I'm leaving a message here in case anyone searches for my username. This account died in early 2013. I am no longer a fundamentalist.

Don't add to my problems by pretending my past views are still held in the present. I do not have any patience for that. Feel free to ask me what I think now.

One does not simply become VIP!
