The only other forums I use are talkclassical and Gamespot.
Gamespot has sucked for years. It's mostly just 12 year old Americans posting old memes from five years ago. The forums they have for specific games are merged with gamefaqs, which also sucks. Discussions are routinely juvenile and rude. The mods are arseholes, very much like DS when I used to use it, with zero sense of humour and people receive brownie points on their profile, the more they hit the report button. All swear words and even the word 'gay' is banned.
Talkclassical has gone downhill in the sense that you just get lots of novices/newbies coming posting threads like "I'm looking for a dark depressing piece of music that sounds like Carl Orff" or "suggest some classical music to a metal fan" and then leaving, never to post again.

No matter that they act like senile 12-year-olds on the Today programme website - smoking illegal fags to look tough and cool. No matter that Amis coins truly abominable terms like 'the age of horrorism' and when criticised tells people to 'fuck off'. Surely we all chuckle at the strenuous ennui of his salon drawl. Didn't he once accidentally sneer his face off?
