I would not want to mention GAF here, but I feel like I must after reading their thread on us. So for those on GAF that are reading this and lurking in the shadows:
I find it incredibly funny that such a behemoth of a forum has moderators that so freely allow their users to shit on this place, when the staff here has shown that they would rather people don't bash other forums. IconEra is small, it will most likely never be nearly as big as GAF, and yet you seem to feel like we're some sort of threat.
Additionally, I love how people characterize this forum as some sort of Sony heaven when all discussions have been allowed, for all platforms, and even
@VFX_Veteran is responsible for his own section.
I would have expected mods there to have intervened and stopped that sad thread, but at the end of the day their owner was begging for gold membership and meltdown threads are a gold farm, so it's only understandable that said owner keeps them open and encourages discussion via the usual suspects and smurf accounts.
Sorry, rant over, and if the staff feels this post is unacceptable please remove it.
