Author Topic: Sites you should NEVER quote as a source (Read 6257 times)

I just thought that maybe it was time that we made a list of sites that are less than credible to use as sources. That way we can always refer to this thread when some newcomer to this thread when necessary.

I also want to know what other sites out there should we all avoid sourcing.

1. NWR
2. Spong.com

if you guys have anything else to add, I will update this post with that info.

If you can find anything based on reality in Infernal's blog then it deserves to be sourced!

Dunno, nobody can even get a hold of the board owner, we think he just pulled the plug and bailed forever. There's an alternative here, but it's not all that exciting.

nintendo.com

I can't believe nobody has mention it yet, but I would never trust anything that ever comes out of HERE. Apparently is filled with all kinds of half truths and shallow leads, and the guy that keeps updating it obviously has no idea whats going on. It should go the way of Infernals Blog.

edit: Vudu your right, all the more reasoning for what I said above ^^

vudu · « **Reply #21 on:** April 09, 2007, 07:57:08 AM »

I think you meant to link here.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #22 on:** April 09, 2007, 09:46:44 PM »

Oh my bog's back, you guys can quote it as trustworthy source now.

Also don't quote NeoGAF

"DS is gonna instantly fail when PSP launches!"
"The Wii fad will die when Christmas is over!"
"Gundam's gonna save the PS3!"

OH NO I JUST DID!
