![]() ![]() If we add in some of RI's history, then we will need it for CE, LUE, the couch, the role playing board, PoTD, etc. For the most part people reading this article who are not GameFAQs members will want to know more about the boards as they are today than the entire reader's digest version of one particulat board's history. I think we need to keep the amount of board history to a minimum. I think this would be the best way to display them on the list, if only because popularity is liable to change over time and the date of their creation will forever remain constant. There has always been a "Big Three" of sorts when it comes to the GameFAQs message boards: CE was created first, then RI, and finally LUE. 71.0.144.234 05:47, 2 August 2005 (UTC) Reply Īs for the order of the boards, I personally believe they should be organized by their seniority rather than their popularity.

While there was certainly some extraneous information in there, I personally believe some of what was taken away ought to be put back again. There was pertinent information in the (admittedly long-winded) summary of Random Insanity which applied to the evolution of the GameFAQs message boards as a whole - for instance, the contributions RI made to roleplaying on GameFAQs and the Internet with Gaw's Laws as well as the RICE Wars, which led to the advent of the board invasion clause in the ToS. ![]() Perhaps the social board should be listed in order of their popularity rather than have CE near the top claiming to be the 3rd most popular.
