Which forums suck and why
The following is a list of forums that really suck and if you dissagre than feel free to share your feelings with the "add comment" button.





EDIT 9-28-05: All my newer journal enteries seem to have disappeared, so you should know that this journal entery was made Dec. 8th LAST YEAR.

EDIT 12-2-05: What do you know? It happened again! xd







GENRAL DISCUSSION:
Almost the most polluted forum on gaia. It has moderaters that almost NEVER get on and very few people care what others post about in there. spending just a minute in GD will proove me. There are all sorts of meaningless trolling threads and sex threads in there you would not believe.


EXTENDED DISCUSSION:
In this forum you get to argue with people who think they're right and you have no way of prooving them wrong. Of course that's the exact way they feel about you because it goes for you to! This is a meaningless forum whos threads never get anywhere and all it spreads is hatered.


VIDEOGAME DISCUSSION:
Have you ever noticed that in this forum almost all the threads are "game X is better than game Y" type threads? very little discussion about a videogame goes on without hoards of assholes putting it down.


CHATTERBOX:
The fastest forum on gaia. Most of it are bump topics whos creators don't even know what "bump" means (It means Bring Up My Post). and any meaningful disscussion that goes on here is immediatly pushed off the front page by bump topics. Much talk that belongs in other forums goes on here; mainly avatar and videogame threads.


STUDIO XD:
lets just face it, it's great that they made gaia and all, but who wants to talk about them, and who even knows where to start?


TEST FORUM:
It's great that there's a forum devoted to testing so you wouldn't clog up the forums with meaningless chatter, but couldn't this just be gotten rid of and all threads here moved to the chatterbox?


THE MARKETPLACE SUB-FORUM:
no disscussion goes on here at all.... enough said.

i think that you forgot about the UDON Comics forum. it's usually COMPLETELY dead in there.

THE MARKETPLACE SUB-FORUM:
Is a good place for buying and selling things if you want items as part of a deal rather than just gold. Not all forums need discussion.

Heh... I think that CB is vastly under-rated. Most topics here are Bump topics or other meaningless topics, but that is only because many of the more "intelligent" people have fled CB for other forums.

CB has the GREATEST potential of any forum; you can post ANY kind of thread there within the ToS. Not only that, but the thread creator has great control over the thread by being able to delete posts in that thread.

Because of CB's association with "spam," most "conversation" here is idiotic or non-existant. However, it really does have the greatest potential to produce good threads (and thanks to the topic-creator's power of deletion, those topics CAN be free of spam).

Much as I love the GCD...it too can suck. There's a lot of elitism and rudeness there sometimes.
