Ok, this may sound like old news, but today I just realized the war between b3tans, farkers and people from SA. In fact, fark ripped a Ps contest off of SA and b3tans complain about everyone. I recal boorite telling us to join fark and skagg being from b3ta (wooyay!), so right now I just wanna know where everyone stands on this.

farkers are from www.fark.com
and SA is www.somethingawful.com (which charges money for accounts hmph!)

As far as I can tell, there is a friendly rivalry between Fark and SA. (I don't know anything about b3ta.) Some farkers are also members of SA and both sites share the same kind of sense of humor. They may trade barbs, but it's all in good fun. It's only those that don't get the joke that take the "war" seriously.

yeah i saw it...lol

I actuly only like fark for the news feature... the comments really tick me off cause they're not all neat and organized the way this place is... But then again neither is beta.

b3tans are not really the kind of people who complain about everything

have you seen the number of wooyays they dish out, its ludicrous

the people who kick up a fuss there are the new people who leave quickly anyways

the core group are the most high spirited positive encouraging people ever grouped into one place on the net

but then im biased
