- I think the process to join Neogaf, although slow, is a benefit to the site. The threat of being banned carries more weight and I think causes people to be more thoughtful when posting.


How is their banning process?

whoops that should say threat, not thread.

I'm not very familiar with the banning process. What I'm trying to say is that if you are permentely banned from Neogaf, you have to go through the entire signup process if you want to join the discussion again. This can take days to weeks, sometimes months. If you compare that we VGchartz, if you're perma-banned here you can easily create a new account and be posting within minutes.

That's more an issue with VGC's sign up process than a different banning process.

Isn't anything you do against the rules on gaf while still a new member an instant permaban as well though?

From what I've read, yes the mods can be quite tought on new members. I'm not saying I think their banning practices are better, or even good, I was just saying that the sites selectiveness and the sign up process is a benefit to the site as it encourages people to be a bit more civil.
