I post over at the old EGM board and 1Up.com under the same username.
I guess this is okay if you don't blatantly advertise.
I post at Nintendo Insider and WEForums, and that's about it. A site called TENDONET too, but I'm thinking of not going back there.
planetgamecube.com/forum user here, it's the only other forum i frequent, i started using Game Informer's forums when they first launched, but they are on par with gamefaqs in their n00bery, so i said NUP and kept my posting to PGC only, i'll see how this forum plays out too ;p

I used to post at N-Philes, but I got banned for having Christina Aguilera in my avatar.

N-philes for sure. FROGTHATCANFLY too.. Zig's forum, a guy from N-philes created his own alternative forum.
N-philes has banned people just because they work at other fansites. They are trying to pretend they are the only good Nintendo fansite, and they do this by bashing the other ones.

What are you talking about? Me and Miggs work for GCA and get along there fine - so there goes that theory. And I think GCA members are wayyyyy too defensive about site rivalry. N-Philes rocks yo daddy.
N-philes banned a bunch of people from GCA and Nintendo Insider before becase they questioned an excuse ethan made for not having content.
I only post here. I used to post at VGNZ but this forum is much better so I won't waste my time there.

We should do that same to them. They flamed us for working for GCA and eventually found a stupid reason to ban, but the REAL reason for the banning is that we work for GCA.

Yes and GCA has never done stupid banning decisions.

I used to post at Team Falcon Online, and NintendoNow, but I'm currently banned from those power hungry places.
I frequently post here at GCA, Gaming Evolved, Zero Vision Online, and Gaming XS.
I'm a veteran of many of those boards, as well as TendoNet, and Xbox Evolved (Yes, they're back up, only their domain name is different, click my sig for details).
I used to post at Nphiles, but I don't post much there, everyone sucks there, except for my friends.
I won't provide links to them....but that's that.

I only post at GCA all other forums suck IMO.
Ive tried a few other places n-philes, pgc, and a few zelda websites, but the only place i've ever really frequented other than here was ign before they went Uber Homo and decided to make the forums insider only.
I had just hit 600 posts and got 3 stars at ign when they went insider only. :(
For me 600 posts is a lot cuz even here i've never had over 200.

That would be bad. GCA is better than N-philes and should act more professionally.
I've been a member at AXA (www.animalxing.com) since 25th Aug 2002. I've also joined AXA's sister site Harvest Moon forums (hmforums.megadoomer.com) which were opened on the 11th of this month.

Are you not listening? Me and Miggs are still there, they know we work for GCA - it's just when you guys made a stink and tried to "show up" n-philes by pointing out why you think they suck that everyone around you turned on you including the moderators after they were tired of arguing about WHY they suck.
I think you guys need to probably grow up a little.
There are way better ways to diffuse a situation than go into someone else's house, throw rocks at their windows, insult their guests and not expect retribution.

Listen what N-Philes did was their own thing, we wontbe a bunch of wimps here, we are open to any and all people as long as they follow the rules!

Is GCA known for being wimpy? Where did that come from?

Sorry about that, I didn't know. No, the post is fine. I was just alerting people not to blatantly advertise such as linking and asking people to register. The post is good.
I did not deserve to be banned from N-Philes the first time. The other 48757 times was fine with me. The first time I was banned was because I said the site didn't have a good layout and needed better writers. I thought the thread was for opinions, not sucking up. lol
Nevertheless, N-Philes is not GCA and thus we shouldn't be talking about them much, and especially not more than one page.

Righty-O!
Um.. unless you look at the thread title.. then.. you kinda have to talk about them :(

Well, its good that they are a big site, I mean damn.....they are close to half a million....HALF A MILLION posts.....
But.....the reason I say they suck, is because their mods are lazy, and not enough admins or super mods to babysit the kids on the site....I remember a lot of chaos went on at the forums for the longest time....and a lot of people got banned, and started to have hatred....etc, etc, etc....I don't need to explain....but you can see my point...
Hey, I'm just expressing my feelings....
I'm not a bad person that you think I am, Liberal...its just that Philes just don't listen to the requests, and discussions on how to improve the site...especially when it comes to the forums.....
There's about 3,000 members, do you think you can handle the members by having a lot of moderators and little to ZERO super moderators onsite? And not too many administrators to be watching the forums for ya? No....You can't handle the forums, alone, you need more than enough help to get the forums in smooth flow.
NintendoNow has a lot of Admins and Super Mods, and a few normal moderators to help keep track of 2,000 members....they have their weaknesses, though....Their corruption in moderation.
Carlos, are you banned on NintendoNow's forums?

So you've been banned at three separate forums?

Only a few:
This one
VGNZ (just signed up a minute ago)
GamerFeed
Hyperactive (aussie forum)
IGN Boards
Besides, VGNZ and this one I haven't visited the other ones for a while.

IGNCube has the best boards in my opinion, always hundreds of users on and every second there is a new response or post. Of course you have to pay to get on those boards, but it is so worth it.

Now, what ever happened to your "competitive" attitude, Sean?
Its good that you have friends there....but what happened to your competitive spirit? :confused:

Correct....TFO, NNow, and WiredGamers....
If Dustin's now defunct GamersEvolved was alive, that'd be four.

Carlos I'm sure they were all for very silly reasons. Hey there's no sarcasm smileys!
Sean is one of the most competitive, hard-working site owners I know of. Competition does not equal immaturity.
N-philes. I almost have 8,000 posts there. The reason I like it so much is because everything there is perfect...as much as I hate the bland layout, it's very easy to read, unlike this forum ::cough::. Plus the avatars are bigger than postage stamps [/lame]
