The Worst Online Communities

[InsaneMaggot]

Any manga or anime related forums. Seriously, it's not even funny. I like manga and anime, but looking at my cat-eared, pocki-eating,"BANKAI"-screaming peers, AND THEN have to listen about "manga is not only for kids lol!" in the same breath as "i don't like adult manga about blood or sexies :<"(not talking hentai here) while touting bleach or naruto as a masterpiece, which have a death theme going on, makes me facepalm everyday.

The Half-Life 2: Episode Two forums have gotten pretty stale due to the lack of Episode Three info and the TF2 forums are a battleground of "THIS GUN IS OP, HURR!" or "THIS GUN IS UNDERPOWERED, HURRR!" and the like.

Worst though would probably be a CoD community, due to all those god damn brats.

Oh, and on the note of the first paragraph, what the fuck is it with all this My Little Pony bullshit? I see GUYS who have MLP avatars! Ponies are for 8-year-old girls! D-:<

I-I don't even...are you a troll? Have you not been on the internet for the past...ever?

Just look here: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/subcultures/my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic

I'm not a troll, I just hate ponies and I hate all this pony crap that's going on everywhere. I stopped going to the Sonic F channel (they make spoofs of Sonic X cartoons) because they were going to make more MLP parodies! Fuck that! >:-(

"Boo Hoo,somebody likes something I don't so I'm gonna complain until they admit that I'm right!"
You know what,I got three words for you:

Just cause you hate something doesn't mean you have to be an ass and parade your hatred around town.

Edit:Damn,I forgot to be on topic. Worse non-4chan community I've seen has to be Bioware,just from some of the pictures I've seen I can tell that it isn't right there.

 

[Shock and Awe]

Bioware forums.

Oh, dear lord Bioware forums. Just... wow.

Most entitled fans of anything ever.

I would have to disagree on that, yeah the fans feel very entitled but they never get to bad over there.

I'm a 19-year-old straight male and I love it. Never seen a single episode but the art style is charming.

anyway, I'm going to go with a little local website called ABCgames.sk The community spends most of the time describing the sexual intercourse between other members and their parents or describing how they played a stealth game that hasn't come out yet on a DVD player in their cars, farting to distract enemies.

You can't spell "Ignorant" without IGN.

Bioware forums.

Read other posts on here to prove just how wrong you are. That Tali sweat one...

OT: I tried HoN the other day for the first time, and I don't think I've ever seen myself get trash talked that much after saying only one word.

deviantArt can be really scary. I rarely ever read comments and posts on that site. I'll just stick to looking at pretty pictures, thanks.

Oh god, deviantArt. I deleted my account on that site. Don't get me wrong, it is a swell place, at least for people who want to get trolled while their art isn't being viewed.

 

[Traun]

After people started donating to a for-profit organization so that they can send their representative and market themselves at an event I pretty much lost all respect toward you guys.

I believe this thread is about online communities, not administration. At least... I don't think Yahtzee's little vacation had anything to do with the community. It wasn't my idea.

edit: crazy, yeah, guy who posted below me. That post alone warrants installing a +1 button to this forum.

I'm not blaming those who asked for money. I'm blaming those who gave it to them.

 

[Corporal Yakob]

I'm too scared to venture outside of the Escapist!

That said, there are a worrying amount of Neo-Nazis on DA.....

 

[rancher of monsters]

I'd say the The Escapist.

*Sad face* But we're so loving!

OT: Cracked by far, "OMG I already knew all this so this article is shit!" Well maybe everyone doesn't hold the same knowledge that you do. But God forbid every article isn't perfectly tailored for your interest.

IMDb can be pretty bad... the layout is also very sloppy. Might improve if they fix that.

I know and have you seen the score for Equilibrium? 7.7/10?! That movie was terrible...<.<

OT: I dunno I don't really spend much time on other forums tbh...

I dont see how the sweat thing is entitled. Creepy and unhealthy but not entitled. Now minecraft, thats an entitled community. "wahhhh Notch is slower than the whole modding community".

Yeah - while the complaining over there can be a bit much, overall the community is pretty pleasant. While a thesis on Tali's sweat might be a bit ick, it's not like the places where people are just vicious and tear each other to shreds. And that's coming from someone who tends to avoid forums like the plague until they've shown themselves to be civilized.

 

[RetardedKitty]

1. DotA
2. HoN
3. LoL
4. Polish Counter Strike
5. World of Warcraft

and yes highest is the worst.

 

[krection]

Call of Duty... enough has been said.

 

[synulia]

Bioware fans. They debate how Tali's sweat would taste, among many other creepy, creepy things.

Fighting games have pretty terrible online comunitys, You get alot more Rage messages than any other type of game.

I concur. I think that the mistake that a lot of fighting game sites make is that the people they tend to put into moderator positions are the people who know the most about the game(s) not the people who know how to best manage an online community. Also most of those sites have seen a significant up-tick in the number of registrants due to the recent boom in fighting games and let's just say that the olde guard isn't usually too happy with or welcoming of anyone who registered at these sites in 2009 or later.

 

[Baneat]

WoW , CoD and Halo are bad.

And MLP

...loljk

Press the red button, do that and you won't ever be bothered by ponies again. Go on, under my avatar, the button, press it...

But you don't have a pony avatar. That really doesn't make any sense.

Besides, it's a waste a of report, since the mods don't seem to share my same dislike.

 

[Rad Party God]

MOBA/Dota-like communities are the scourge of humanity.

Christ, Inception getting an 8.9?!?!? That movie was a good action flick, but just a good action flick, and it sure as hell wasn't better than Casablanca, Taxi Driver, or Seven Samurai.
