I had stumbled into the video game forum quite on accident today and was bombarded with some of the most unreadable text I'd ever seen. For this, I nominate the video game forum as the biggest waste of bandwidth on Dakka. What about you guys? What section do you think is the worst and why?

RAW vs. RAI doth dwell hereth... in this place of apathy and misdirection... of your soul... and mind... but not without a great lunge doth this monster deem you fit to receive such knowledge... for know you not of the consequences of such actions... and things...

Dunno really, they all seem to serve a purpose, even if that is just to keep the internet bogies seperate, and in turn keeping all of us safe... from ourselves.

You know a thread is made of pure win when the thread in one forum is lambasting the uselessness of another forum


-"Wait a minute.....who is that Frazz is talking to in the gallery? Hmmm something is going on here.....Oh.... it seems there is some dispute over video taping of some sort......Frazz is really upset now..........wait a minute......whats he go there.......is it? Can it be?....Frazz has just unleashed his hidden weiner dog from his mini bag, while quoting shakespeares "Let slip the dogs the war!!" GG

I rarely lol at stuff I read, but this did it for me. Thank you sir. Although it might have been the word "lambasting" as much as anything else. I love that word.

Scathing is far too graphic don't you think? It's like a verbal raping.

I lol'd, so hard!

I'm not saying the forum itself shouldn't exist, I'm saying its content shouldn't exist.

I would say the DCM Forum is the most useless on Dakka, I mean come on, why have a forum where only privileged people can read it? Besides, it is not like I have access to it to even know what evils lurk in there. Oh, wait, I DO have access to it and I do know that it does have some great evils in it. Can I change my vote to, um, say, err, Dakka Polls, yeah, that will work!?

You're kidding. Chain Fiction is home to the wonderful Ask Teh Space Emporer column.

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.
