The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I and many other people are fine with the fun posts about random things as they have some thought put into them and are planned just to entertain and not annoy...
BUT... Some people are just starting countless numbers of pointless topics in the hope that they are going to win a GAD. I hate to break it to you but you won't, a GAD win has to be entertaining and should actually have some thought to it. (I'm talking to you Farcks!) So posting countless numbers of posts and new topics won't result in you getting a game, you will just get banned...
There is also a sudden rise in the number of 'Gamecube is great' posts with nothing more than a sentence or two saying, 'the gamecube is the best games console ever ' (gazza guy)
I'm writing for a number of people here who actualy want a topic that they have thought about and taken time writing to be read and not to be flushed to the bottom of the forums by loads of stupid posts.
So next time you post, just think about whether it will be a benefit to the forums or will it just result in loads of people hurling abuse at you for writing a one lined post with no content.
Oh I really hope this wins me a GAD! I took ages on it! :c)

No ones saying you are. Its just the newbies who come on here and post countless console wars threads, or reasons why a certain console sucks. Stay away from posting crap like that and you'll be safe from nasty comments from people.

Plus its fun.

That's awful
Newbies shouldn't be made of. They nearly always become regulars and settle down, or, like the majority, they will eventually get bored and leave. So calm down, let the newbies do as they want, they'll soon learn the norms and values of the SR forums
