Suchmoon, lets be fair, bitgeek has a valid point. Lots of GAW circle jerk accusiations there, and lots of anti-Gaw circle jerk here. Each site has a high noise to signal ratio, but eh, I find both to be informative.
I have to disagree.
The "anti-GAW circlejerk" exists on any forum not heavily censored by GAW.
On this forum/other forums you're allowed to have any opinion no matter how disagreeable, but on hashtalk if it's not circlejerking, you're silenced. It's almost like a cult over there (although I must admit the extreme fanaticism has largely died down in the past few weeks)
People are now being banned from hashtalk without even being downvoted. (simply for pointing out zenpool payouts have dropped)
