Pretty much says it all for me. Nothing special about it. Lots of one word posts and profanity like any other video game site.

Intrinsic said: Whats there not t like... hell I think the fact that there is even a thread here asking if they are liked or not just goes to show how big of a deal they apparently are. Personally, I feel any forum can be like NeoGaf. All you have to do is have really good mods. and find ways to verify peoples accounts to prevent account spamming after bans. Dunno why most forums don't think of this, if you want a forum to be successful, then have extremely strict mods. If not, the forum will self destruct. |
For the latter point, i think we tend to do a good job (if you want strict mods, my other forum home-away-from-home, TVTropes, makes us look quite tame and toothless with how quickly and mercilessly they pounce on off-topic posts and personal attacks). Some degree of variation is natural
I do really wish the bold was true, however. Some... persistent users really just can't be stopped, and instead have to be perpetually fought, hydra-style.

You can't blame them, VGZchartz is litterly just guessing the numbers. Of course, they are logical guesses, but nothing proffesional. A few weeks ago they had Spiderman for the XBone on 40k sales, while it wasn't even launched. |
Extrapolating from whatever data you have isn't unprofessional. On the contrary, it's probably the most professional thing to do. Even NPD does that. Of course if there's not enough retailers cooperating with you, the data is going to have bigger error margin. I must admit, though, that this Spiderman case sounds pretty bad. :D
