Christ people. this is JUST and internet message board, nothing life altering. You don't like the Jr. members posts or threads, THEN DON'T READ THEM.

Remember jackasses, you were Jr. Members at one point so knock off the holier-than-thou mentality.

However the vast majority of non Jr. Members were not idiot Jr. Members like the vast majority of Jr. Members are.

 

[Ecrofirt]

That's because idiot junior members are usually weeded out fairly quickly.

GAF cannibalizes shitty junior members, and only the strong survive.

People don't know good games anymore! The Mother 3 thread only got 22 posts or some shit. BUT OMG MARIO 64 DS! 5 MOTHERFUCKING PAGES ABOUT A GAME THAT'S BEEN OUT SINCE LAST GENERATION! Would I get banned for posting gaming threads in the OT? I'm much rather discuss games with the OT crowd than I would teh gaming newbs.

To preserve tradition from the beginning of the thread; What idots!

 

[AstroLad]

The significant difference between regular members and Junior Members is that regular members actually made it a few posts without getting banned, which makes them an elite minority.

Hey that gave me an idea, how about a gaming board for regular members only?

/only half joking

 

[Sirpopopop]

Hah, I was merely poking fun at myself being a junior member! Also, I've been lurking the OT boards and you can't fool me... rehashing the same arguments is all people do here

Yeah pretty much .

Welcome to the boards.

Now become a Mormon or get out! We need our token Mormon!!!

Whats up with the new member hatefest?

As a recent GAF immigrant, I say phooey. You all were like me once, a new member stuggling to find your way around this cruel and harsh forum, I say pox on you.

Like the great hobo phil once said "I'm pitching my tent here aint nobody gonna stop me"

As long as you don't get banned, you have no worries. It's not a blanket statement that all new members are bad, just a funny observation that we basically don't know what to expect from them. Most forums don't give a shit and anything goes, but most of us are still here and have been for years b/c GA isn't that kind of wasteland.

Sadly, you can't accomplish an uprising without posting, and if you post you hit member status soon enough. On no, Catch-22.

A seasoned GAF veteran, I have a plethora of classic posts under my belt. I don't care about Junior Members, or regular members at that. Small potatoes. Let it be known that I am, indeed, with out a shadow of a doubt, the one, the only, da Illest. I shall not tolerate being lumped together with Junior Members or regular members for that matter. I am in a class of poster that supersedes any and all precedes it. I am the phenom. I am...

Peace.

I think that about sums up the discussion. You can all be at rest now.

And now, lady and gentlemen, with the Washington Redskins firmly in place to continue their streak of absolutely no playoff contention, I think it's time we brought back my friend and yours -- MR. BRUCE CAMPBELL!

For the record, Litigation Manual isn't actually a Junior Member. That's just his tag.

I think the status of membership on this board is overrated. On the other hand some of you on here just like to talk too damn much.

Spunky like a .... diabetes? You're weird. Also, I congratulate you on the return of Mr. Campbell, and am proud of my involvement.

And anytime anyone wants to change my tag that'd be cool. Like, "medical insurance scam" could be funny. Right? Right?

 

[Willco]

Spunky like a .... diabetes? You're weird.

I'm weird? You're the one who said diabetes! And let us not forget about your dead body collection.

HEY! The correct nomenclature is "hobo cemetary", not body collection! Get it right! Also, instead of responding to the response for my plee for a new tag, I will instead post pictures of hobos so it doesn't seem I'm whining.

Oh wait, that last one is literature. Oh.

Perhaps the older members felt threatened by the opening of the boards this year. Before GAF was open to all, it was a pretty tight-knit community. GAF was a fairly good place to get news, seriously discuss games, and perhaps discuss some other things that interested us. You could come to GAF with any game-related question, and chances are, you'd get a straight answer within the hour. Sure, guys were snarky, but nothing like the GAF of today. Now, a lot of us who were here before the floodgates flew open remember the days when a good banning was the highlight of the week, when a Lohan post would get you laughed right out of town. I guess what it comes down to is the fact the boards have lost a little dignity. Not to say that all junior members are contributing to the decline of the board, but there are only a few who really step up and keep GAF from being like every other gaming nuthouse on the net.

Dude, it's Troy. The one on the right. Seriously, you know what I'm talking about, Lit.

 

[Willco]

 

[shantyman]

I didn't mean to demean all jr. members. Hell, with my spelling in the subject I probably acted like one too. However, there are many suspect threads lately that seem designed for one purpose- to stir the shit in the pot.

"Has PSP already won?"

"Will PSP shortages allow Nintendo to remain king despite inferior technology?"

Things like that...

 

[Litigation Manuel]

Dude, it's Troy. The one on the right. Seriously, you know what I'm talking about, Lit.

It is! Holy crap! It's like a vision of the future...er, um, present. And past. What a dirty smelly hippy of a man.

Buddy, complaints about how things were better during _________ phase of GAF's life are as old as GAF itself. The entire meditative MANTRA of GAF is living in the past and complaining about present. God, I remember 2 years ago when Nomoment was declaring "the golden age" of GAF over, and passed the forum off to "Silver Age" members...members like Roald Duke and (I think) White Man...both incredible contributors to our little microcosm .

Hell, I was certainly one to bitch about "how bad things had gotten", and eventually I realized that the most esteemed elder members used to point towards ME as proof of "how bad things had gotten" :lol

Hey, bitching is fun though, that's something we all agree on.

I wasn't complaining, per se. I suppose when you look at it that way, you're right.

I for one welcome our new junior member overlords. Where else am I going to find out what's going on in the seedy underbelly of entertainment?

Your post is somewhat misinformed. This board wasn't "opened" this year, it was made read-only to the public when before it was completely shut out since the ezboard days. You still must register to post, and registration is still by manual approval as it has been since the ezboard days.

Now, I could go on to say how I've been here for fucking forever, but then MAF aka Mr. Has-Been-Around-Since-GA-Wasn't-Yet-"GA" will just walk by and laugh at me. I'm possibly in the oldest 50 members, but he's up in the top 5 or so.

 

[kumanoki]

I stand corrected.

 

[Boogie]

I remember when everyone was doing all of the whining and lamenting for the "golden age", and the "silver age". Good grief, that was annoying. :lol

There's nothing you could possibly say that you haven't already said. Many many times.

This question isn't really related to what you said but I've always wondered why your name was changed to Lermurnator?
