Ah, vocês estão dizendo que no OT teria mais visibilidade. Bom, não tenho argumentos para refutar ou concordar. Por um lado, a aba do OT é a padrão e, teoricamente, mais pessoas veriam o tópico. Por outro lado, a aba do OT é para notícias e, portanto, tem uma rotatividade de tópicos muito grande; ou seja, este tópico (BrazilGAF) seria facilmente jogado para a segunda, ou terceira página.

Além disso, a aba community existe por um motivo. É lá que ficam, ou deveriam ficar, todos os tópicos "oficiais" (inclusive, o BrazilGAF OT). Imagine se todos usassem este argumento, de "visibilidade", para que seus tópicos OT ficassem na aba padrão? Ia ser um confusão generalizada. O que vale para um, deveria valer para todos. Mas isso contraria o nosso "jeitinho brasileiro", né?

Mas... é apenas minha opinião.

That's nice and everything but you are being naive, no community has liked going to "community" because threads always die there, like my poor, beloved creepy image thread, only the huge communities keep their threads from dying.

Yeah it should be there but there is no reason to actively pursue it, mods don't do it for small communities like this one anyway, unless some junior fucks thing up
I'm kidding :p,

tl:dr let the mods do their thing, enjoy the threads!

You can make most genres sound like pure shit if you post terrible music.

I can find terrible hip-hop songs too. Doesn't mean the genre is garbage.

I don't see anything blatently wrong with the songs I posted.

The music I posted is just a funny funk I wasn't choosing a bad music. The other one you quoted was a parody. I listened to the music you posted and they sound very different than the ones that are played in my region, usually it's something like this http://youtube.com/watch?v=fjX57QNG1c8

I'm not talking all funk carioca is bad, it produced good songs like this one http://youtube.com/watch?v=MXU4Ph9zZWQ

Blimey, I listened to this song when I was little (7? 8?)! It came on a CD called "Rap Brasil".

The song didn't age well, if you allow me to be this polite.

Oh man, the little me listened to so much crap.

As long you weren't twerking at age 8 to funk, all is fine.

That's alright. I agree with some in the thread that it hasn't aged well. Much like some of the 80s and early 90s hip-hop.

But man there were so many black people living in the favelas in that video. Wikipedia says that only 7.6% of Brasil is black (less than half of America's black population). I expected a bit more diversity there.

It is a little bit more complicated than that because Brazilians are a pretty mixed people.

There are people who don't consider themselfs black that would instantly put in the black group if they went to the USA

I read a book for my class in which it stated that the concept of race varies widely depending where you go. It used Brazil as an example. It stated that you "work your way up to whiteness". Basically the higher your status (i.e. position or salary) the "whiter" you are.

Not in a way that your skin color changes but more so that if you are wealthy or middle class people see you as white.

That's what the book said at least. I found it odd.

This is the usual funk carioca that the "funkeiros" listen to where I live.

It's a complicated thing in Brazil, I think many don't identifies themselves as black but as brown and because we're so mixed it tends to generate these statistics.

Nah it was about him and I was indeed kidding.

I feel dirty using bad words, I don't know how that came to be D: (too much "carioques" in my head probably).

I was kidding otherwise I would have said something before Ezalc did, I was just joining the pile on. I won't do it again.

The whole rankism thing is a joke here on GAF. Anybody who seriously does it has actually been banned or at least juniored again. You don't have to take it so hard, he meant nothing by it.

What's done is done. Just move on and let's continue to talk about how awful funk carioca is.

Eu até acho interessantes os quadrinhos da Marvel, e até pensei em acompanhar uma vez, mas sinceramente eu fiquei meio perdido, não sabia nem por onde começar, já existe um trilhão de revistas e se eu quisesse entender tudo ia ter que gastar muito, então vou continuar com o video-game como hobby mesmo, já é caro o suficiente. Hahaha

Mangás, aye - acompanho um punhado de séries. Tudo online, porque as coisas que eu leio ou são muito extensas (tipo Naruto, Toriko) ou não saíram por aqui, que eu saiba (tipo JoJo, Vinland Saga).

Fora a de MLP, acompanho nenhuma hq - eu sempre lia as dos meus amigos, daí eventualmente eles pararam de comprar e eu fiquei sem material.

This is beautiful.

I find it nice that this ENEM was more related to what students (supposedly) learn at school - back in my time, it was a bunch of graphs and text interpretation and maybe a math question to put some more numbers on the test. Made the entire ensino médio look pointless.

Almost searched for the test to take a look, but then decided to play some games instead.

Eu também estava nessa de não saber por onde começar, aí quando começou os novos 52 pouco menos de 2 anos atrás resolvi assinar o pacote da DC, e até agora não me arrependi!

Superman Grandes Astros é indispensável. Disparado a melhor história dele. "Superman Terra Um" e "Superman Origem Secreta" também são ótimos.

I just remembered my city forces our buses to play classic music (I think it still does at least). Honestly I don't think it works that well, because basically people just turn their volume even louder. :lol It has been quite a long time since I used a bus though, so maybe it worked overtime...

Pessoal vocês costumam visitar algum site de notícias de games nacional? Estou aceitando recomendações
não me venham com o gamevicio D:
normalmente eu acesso o Gamesfoda o Arena IG e eventualmente o Kotaku BR.

Eu sinceramente nem uso sites brazukas pra games, na verdade nem estrangeiros eu uso muito, tudo chega antes aqui no GAF. Mas pelo o que eu vi o Kotaku BR é "decentezinho".

Cara, o problema é que eu sou "completionist" (aquele momento que você não sabe se a palavra existe, e muito menos a tradução pro português, lol). Basicamente, me irrita ter coisas incompletas, tipo começar uma série pela segunda temporada, ou começar algo e nunca terminar. Me irrita mesmo. Então me conhecendo, eu achei melhor deixar pra lá mesmo. É melhor assim. :p

GamesFoda ?

I use Gaf and "that banned site that you go for nintendo news" for news =P
It is hard for any news that interests me to escape those 2 sites

Never heard of GamesFoda before either. Going by the name I thought it was going to be one of those gaming sites, but it actually looks cool, and the more ironic/satirical approach is kind of funny imo.
