I once heard that in the early days VGchartz had no fanboys and only one troll. It was a paradise for those unaware of the console wars in the outside world. The only rule was to not feed the troll. On the launch of a new console the troll tricked a simple happy forum member into feeding it and darkness descended on VGchartz. The age of innocence was over the axis of evil fanboys and trolls attacked from all angles. The mods fought back and only with years of hard fought battles were the forces of evil pushed back into minority and the forums made safe again for children to play. Though we still hear tales of a troll threads and a fanboy flame attacks most stories are exaggerated and VGchartz remains mostly peaceful.
Well, that's what I heard happened. I wasn't here back then. |
No. There are more trolls then now but everything was take easy because the guys just laugh and used a lot of sarcarm in thread... the epic gifs was lol epic... the dommed, fail, undertacked, etc are a lot more used than now.
There are no innocence in darth ages... the moderation and users was less senssitive... but of course there are a lot of bans too... some users with ban records (Leo-J?) lol.
I'm almost the same now and my first ban happened in 2010... so you can have a ideia how the VGC changed.
Edit - The crow... oh the crows... every thread was gifs or guys saying to others how they eat crows with prediction or anything the the users said and not happened... eat crow was a meme here.

No, long before that. In the before times.
