I like the equal amount of on topic and off topic stuff. We have moments were we just talk about TBFP (not recently but we do) But I prefer this to the Game Grumps thread.

Maybe less of kicking out more of confining us to community.
I agree.. FnF came out and rule of rose came out and we didn't really talk much about it.
Our ambition knows no bounds. We will unite the country through force, and only then will the people know peace.

When did you guys quit GG if you did anyways? I stopped after they started using end cards and I'm not sure why. Might be because I had been thinking about it for a while and I just said fuck it.

Oh wow. A lot of GAFers don't like these threads. This is pretty surprising. We really did scare off people with our lewd off-topic anime erotica discussions.
If the Game Grumps thread was also moved it'll be even deader.
We will be known as The Great Uniter.
Not just that, also TBF isn't exactly the most well known group even giant bomb isn't known by everyone, but is a bigger community.

Really? People complain about these threads.
I could sit on my perch, and bitch that the Smash threads are full of worthless circlejerking, but I like to hold my tongue.

It's been especially bad lately, dunno why. I guess there's not a lot to discuss about it? Or we're being insane here, per the norm.I agree.. FnF came out and rule of rose came out and we didn't really talk much about it.
Where you getting that from? There was a small handful of comments in the GB OT, but where are you looking?

Honestly, I haven't had the time to watch them. I'm just starting the Mr. Bones thing... I prefer to binge the videos rather than watch them as they come.
A month after Jon left but not for that reason. I actually liked Danny but the overall sense of humor and them being bad at games sometimes stopped being funny to me.
Yeah, I think that's when a lot of people probably started judging us.
You're not wrong though.

The GB threads and that sticky thread when someone mentions us. We're seen as a bunch of IRC weaboos.

they're just jealous they dont know how to be lewd and tasteful at the same time
For me it's mainly that the first video comes out when im in class, and the second one when Im usually doing homework.
Granted I have noticed us falling off of posting video links and talking about the video. Heck we even ignore pat sometimes when he comes in here

When they started doing like 3 games a week and wouldn't finished 90% of them.
So basically near the very beginning.
I never watched them before Jon left but I watched a bit of their Wind Waker LP. I came away from that liking Danny the most of all the grumps.
Tasteful...okay man jk

Well that's on them, not us. Even if people occasionally post goatse.
Same here. The only series I actually watched as they came out was RE4, Dark Souls 2 and Yakuza 4. Everything else I tend to binge watch so I don't often go through the whole waiting game for the next video.
Yeah. There isn't much to talk about it. We talked more during call of cthulu and escape from bug island since those were really quirky and interesting. I personally find rule of rose fascinating and an interesting game.
Not everyone does, so it makes sense.
Yeah we have. i wonder what changed. Nah, Pat gets tons of comments when he comes.

to be fair there isnt much left to say about rule of rose,
damn creepy british kids!!,
was surprised at the lack of FNF talk, i mean it had robots! i love to talk about robots!
Really? I always notice Pat get dog piled with responses whenever he posts something.

Please please come off that perch and join us in the trenches for the great GB/Best Friend war.
not really tho. Flame war would have us victorious.
Youre SOOOOO funny.
I remember a few times with ultimax where he wanted to play and no one responded to him. It doesn't happen a lot but it has happened.

I can't find the time to watch it tonight and as hype as Super Robots are, I'm familiar enough with the genre to just jump into a conversation about them.
I like Danny a lot. His music videos are pretty boss, and Starbomb is an entertaining album.
I think it was around the end of Wind Waker for me. I never unsubbed but I just stopped watching them completely for no real apparent reason. Next time I pull up Youtube I'll probably unsub though to clear up my sub box.

So I'm playing Wii U CoD Black Ops 2.
Nobody told me the Candyman was in here! He's one scary mofo in his horror movies.

Ah ok, I was reading those comments earlier. All in all I think there weren't that many people being (understandably somewhat) judgmental of our first impressions, I'm not too upset. Heck some GB people made an effort to be nice to us, while teasing about the anime thing.
If I'm right I'm pretty sure disliking "anime" is a joke over at GiantBomb.
It was like a month or two prior to Jon leaving. Neither of them felt interested in what was happening and game choices were randomly and idiotic due to people sending them in.
The LPs they chose for themselves at the start were really cool, at least at the time, to me.
If people did that anywhere else they'd be decimated.
lol we kinda deserve that after people started using ahegao avatars. But so what? People who can tolerate that stuff are usually people I would like to talk with (good natured people who don't witch hunt or look down upon others).

That happens a lot for people though. I know every once in a while I'll post a question or something and just get ignored or missed either because y'all are doing something else or just because it gets buried under responses for other things. It just happens.

Oh yeah there's been those handful of times. I think everyone expected somebody else to reply, but nobody did.

Do you think it would be inappropriate to post a podcast thread on gaming side every week?

Yup. Nature of being a member of the IRC WeeaboosThat happens a lot for people though. I know every once in a while I'll post a question or something and just get ignored or missed either because y'all are doing something else or just because it gets buried under responses for other things. It just happens.
I almost want to make that my Thread 6 title suggestion. :lol
We totally could, and it could be on topic, but it don't know if we have the audience for it.
Probably want to ask a mod to clear that, though. Considering all the talk they apparently had over our move.

That's part of what made me tired of them. Especially after Arin blaming the game for not telling him what to do.
Yeah fair enough hah, I can see that being annoying.
Yeah Danny is so great. I think I'm in the minority of people who actually like Ross though. Basically I left liking everyone except Arin

Hell chao, if you're ready to go to war, I'll stand by you.
SBFcast is more on-topic than the Giant Bombcast =_=
Would anyone go there? It'll have to be specifically on topic as a rule. It could be worth a try?
Night.

War? Noooo I even held out an olive branch to the GB thread just now. I just think it would be nice to remind people that Best Friends exists. A lot of podcasts get threads on gaming side so idk why not us?

That has numerous issues we've gone over. Mainly moderation, quality of comments, having the server infrastructure to handle heavy loads, etc.
It would be super interesting, but for now they've decided to spread out to every other media instead. The idea is they come to you instead of having the central hub for them.
(If you missed my edit, my only condition is that we should talk to a mod about it first, but) it'd be a great way to have an on-topic representation.
I've often wanted to discuss the podcast more in-depth, anyway, actually.
No EmCeeGrammer said they can still post the Giant Bombcast thread in gaming so it'd probably be okay. Though people might complain about accidentally clicking on it thinking it's the Smash thread.
I dunno, keeping a forum up and running would just be another thing they would have to keep track of wouldn't it? Seems a bit much.

We can just format the title like "Friendcast DD/MM/YYYY".

They were having a lot more fun. That's a huge part of it.
Man that WW playthrough..... woof
Remember that time they talked about sick angel ladder matches and the DMC manger scene?
