i don't get it. why does it matter what website you go to?

i've only been here for..idk a year and a half or so, so im not really understanding of the history but i know that the two websites go merged. BUt there seems to some hostility comeing from the gamefaqs side. keep in mind this is only from MY personal experiences but i've seen posts such as go away gamespotter" and "you ignorant idiot....of coarse you come from gamespot"

 

if somebody could just explain this to me it would be much appreciated.

 

(i was also skeptical about which board to put it on but i decided on this one so nobody would ***** at me)

Usually most idiotic posts ocme from the GS side, so people have blown that out of proportion and labelled all GSers as idiots. A large majority of trolls from the GS side are just GF users who use GS to bypass restrictions.

Because we can quote, and post images, and have a posting history. Gamefaqs users might have a way to see their posting history, but I haven't found it yet :(

Neanderthals have always been jealous and hated on homo sapiens.  It's just the way things are.

After you get to a certain user level you can see your own posting history on GF.

I'll tell you why!

I've had my past life of being on GF and I can easily tell you why they hate us. We have everything they have to earn from the get-go and more! What we can do in a single day they have to save up for months just to do. You have to be what, level 20 over there just to see your posting history? They hate us because there are more things to do over here and with jealousy comes hate. Icons, videos, posting pictures without having to link it, we can do it all AND more. They despise it.

As for us being idiots, it's pretty clear that half of them over there are no better than us. Have you seen some of there boards? Their reviews? They do the same thing we do around here, yet they refuse to admit it and deny it every time.

They just refuse to see the truth behind the matter.

I've never seen the hostility between the two sites. I do like the way both sites have a levelling up system, Gamespot has it's levels and percentages while GameFaqs has it's Karma. Both I find are cool features. When browsing the Gamefaqs boards I see the same quality posts I see from Gamespot so there's virtually no difference for me.

More features bring along more glitches

GS Glitch count: 475

GF Glitch count: 0

And as for the "Same thing" thing,  Most gaminn-related things are shared between the two sites

but IMO, Gamefaqs is better than Gamespot.  Less harsh rules there =)

Most troll posts come from the GS side. I've been on GFAQs for a much longer while than I've been on GS, so... Basicly, a few morons ruined GS's reputation.

I guess our "super posting levels" aren't high enough.

Any board that restricts and limits posting rights based on something as artifical and rude as "posting levels" makes me sick to my stomach. 

You communicate ideas on forums, and the quality of these ideas can't be measured quantatatively.  The quality of your ideas has no direct relationship with how long, how much, or how hard you post on an online forum.

Less harsh? Err...no. The mods on Gamefaqs actually know how to follow the TOS, and moderations tend to make sense. However, mod abuse is absolutely rampant here. Many things that should be modded are left alone, while other things are needlessly modded.

Dude that drink totally rocks. The back reads 'Do not drink unless you are a "Troll-inator"'. That's why GFAQ's still is cool; Most members know how to debate. Tough, hate is a big word... I'd say... Dislike.
