You must have not been here. Jeff Gerstmann was let go due to rating a game what it deserved, Gamespot bought advertising and since the company got mad at gamespot for giving a low score on the site that posts their ads, but fired jeff!

That isn't accurate. He was more likely fired for the sloppy video review which was pulled, re-edited and put back up. The review itself remain unchanged.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]Nothing special about it....it's a cesspool and that's how they want it to be. The forums are taken over by grade school kids. spazzx625
Yeah, the forums are really bad...but the main idea of the actual site is cool. I only do forums....so I compare their OT with this OT. Any site that allows users to post porn is amateur in my opinion.
If I were to take a guess I'd say the "no rules" is an attempt to steal GS users. But all they will get are the immature ones that think swearing and posting porn is funny.
Of course, the fact that the imposter that took my name isn't banned for posting porn does affect my decision greatly.

But the user wasn't banned for breaking one of the two rules.

But, yeah, dude was fired for a BS reason.
Video review for what game and how was it sloppy?
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. It wasn't sloppy. Jeff just bashed the game and in the end he claimed that it definately wasn't worth a purchase. People are speculating that since ads for the game were all over Gamespot the week it was reviewed that he was fired because Gamespot was bribed into giving Kane & Lynch a good review. However, it would seem only logical that Gamespot would tell this to Jeff before he reviewed it which would have kept everything under wraps. Or, Jeff decided he was too much of a rebel. But anyway you cut it, it is all just speculation.

Bingo!
I'll only visit their site for the video content and their reviews. I ain't getting close to those forums yet.

He still should have been banned...Why, it sounds pretty funny.It was disgusting.....did you see it? I had the misfortune. Nope, haven't gone there yet. The no rules sounds good.
[QUOTE="polishkid99"]whats with all the talk about gianbomb.com?...its just another game website whats so special about it?...TheFlush
Jeff Gerstmann, Ryan Davis, Brad Shoemaker and other original gamespot reviewers are what is special about it. Yeah but the site suks/ Long live gamespot!

He still should have been banned...Why, it sounds pretty funny. It really wasn't. He posted the worst stuff. Meh. I've been on another certain we/b/site you might have been on. I've seen it all D:

Yes. That's the idea exactly. I avoided that website for exactly the same reason. :PThat website is hilarious i'm not gonna lie. I like gamespot OT, but the rules just drive me nuts.

Somethings are a bit iffy...but for the most it's not hard to follow the rules. Considering my post amount...I haven't exactly been over modded......I don't think. Least not if what others say on here is true.

Least not if what others say on here is true. I get modded all the time. You cant insult someone on this forum, you can't call someone an idiot. When someone makes some racist thread (far more offensive than the word moron) I can't just say 'your a moron'.
