Does Anyone Like NeoGAF?

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.
