This has been kinda brought up a few times, but I've never really seen a thread on it. (Although my memory might be hazy. Don't hurt me Matt.)
So do you guys visit any other forums outside of SH?
I...visit a lot. I used to be a community moderator of Gamespot, and did that for three years. Then...things kind of got shitty there and I can't stand certain people that run that website. I won't get into that, though, lol.
The good thing about Gamespot, though, was that a ton of spinoff boards were created because of it. A group of friends I met there formed a very small, very private board. There's only 100 users, and it's only been open for a year, but my post count of 5000 is VERY low. Top poster has over 20k. You guys think Genga, Hylian and the like are spammers...you have no idea.
I go to another private GS spinoff board as well, but that one's much smaller, and a lot less posts per day. It's a really intelligent community, though, so it's always good for a read.
There's one other public GS spinoff that's crazy insane with traffic and users, but you have to weed through a bunch of shit to find good posts. Still, it's an awesome board.
On top of that, I lurk a few other boards(mainly of webcomics). I'm thinking about paying the fee for the SA boards, as they're just so freakin hilarious.
So how about you guys? Where do you post besides SH, if anywhere? |

I was the #1 highest poster on empiremovies.com for a while (7700+ posts) but I don't post there anymore because all the good members left and most of the people there suck.
I currently post on ign under the user name Anthony5555, I mostly post on the movies board. Really cool place. _________________

do you mean 'concerned' the HL2 comic, cause thats funny stuff.
as far as other forums go, i used to check out the gamefaqs forums before it became the cespool it is now, i still drop by for the daily poll occasionally, and i stopped going to the official guitar hero forum after people started getting retarded about the *tripp code not working for them (which was about 2 pages in). _________________

Man, I come from far and wide when it comes to forums. At this time, I really only use 8-Bit, Gfaqs and Ctrl-Alt-Del forums (and of course SH!).
I used to have a private forum for my Battlefront Clan, the Storm Rangers but when BF2 came out me and the co-leader hated it so the clan basically disbanded. I still try to revive it for other games but it doesn't go to well.
And then there are always forums I go for like a day and just check it out, and then leave. _________________
