It's the mystery box!

It's getting to the point where I want to vomit from the sheer stupidity of some people. |

PotD is bitter, dim and crude. And that's why I like it.

Wait, PotD has turned into a soft blob of artificial happy emotions. With bitter and crude out of the picture, that only leaves dim. |

It is fun to troll there >_> And the "stupid things you did as a kid" topics are always great, mainly due to the stupid people there. |

The whole offshoot board thing really intrigues me because the same thing happened with my board only it was tv.com (which if I'm not mistaken is a partner of GameFAQs in some form). Shitty moderation, retarded threads etc. We pulled a mass exodus to a forum I made. The only reason I started lurking here was because of the sheer similarities I picked up on. I think most of these big-ass corporate owned boards are much the same. Can you abuse the moderate post feature on GameFAQs? Back on TV.com you could basically get somebody banned within a day if you used the post history feature and had an axe to grind. I've only looked at PotD a handful of times and I just really don't get it. It seems too happy and tame for my tastes but maybe that's just based on a bad cross-section of posts. It seems like a toned down /b/ which is just silly. |

Several Regs and Vets have been calling it /b/ lite, and all of the various other forms, for years. Luca did indeed nail it. |

Only if the moderator checking the reported post is a dumbass. Which leaves you with about a 75% chance of success according to a former moderator. On the topic of moderators, apparently the ones on GameFAQs often fight amongst each other over even the most trivial of things. It's happened before that one of them went on a suspending spree, was stopped by a fellow moderator, and then got his account restored with SBAllen (the head honcho) telling the guy to take it easy. Then doing it all over again three days later.
The drama used to be awesome. Drunken rage-fuelled BTB provided great entertainment. (In a way that it is interesting to watch a man flagellate himself.) |

I hate PotD. The people there suck. Everyone's like "BLABHBLABH IS OVERRATED" How can they be overrated if everyone says they're overrated?! No one is saying they're great! THEY'RE ALL JUST OVERRATEDLY OVERRATED. And I hate "HURR POTD WAS BETTER IN 20<SOMETHING>" Are you serious?! I really doubt it's changed. It's always been the same for me. It just takes time to realise. |

I think we can blame all of GameFAQs' problems on the loss of the former board Admin. Things always seem to point there... |

I go to the MTG board and the television board whenever a show I like is in a current run. |

It's something I've picked up recently. I only play at a kitchen table with one person and their cousin, though. It's fun casually but I wouldn't hold up in a competitive setting because I constantly do shit out of order. |

huh I've only played it once when I was with my cousin. He's like a MTG pro and he let me use one of his decks. Of course he's using the superior deck. |

The only difference I've seen on PotD is the shift from fad/meme balance. Back when I joined they mostly used things found on PotD while these days the amount of /b/ stuff greatly outnumbers the others. |
