They used to have "groups," which combined a forum and a listserv, and I was a longtime member of one. They tended to be extremely niche, like if we had a splinter forum that only talked about how to market homebrew NES games and nothing else. But Yahoo divested themselves of it, and most moved to places like groups.io. Which was nice because that site could take the archived posts and keep them searchable (basically the polar opposite of what GoCollect did to NA.)

The few I was a member of were devoted to a specific game - none of them were very big but the people in them were really really into the game.

I found it funny and made my own comment which was basically a repeat of another made too. It was sad that Mario was so big that when kirby sucked him up the secretary didn't realize the change. I got put in facebook jail for a WEEK over it for bullying Mario fat shaming him and Kirby. For serious. Their bots are raging stupid, as is their human arbitrators, as I put it to human review and it was upheld. The stupid leading/coding the stupid. The group admin and mods even wrote them to lift it, they got denied too by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Family Dollar/Dollar General rivalry is pretty infamous, but there have been others over the years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
