And don't forget Expert Sexchange, which tries to get money out of people for the same thing. (Has Google delisted them yet?)

Facepunch forums and Steam forums are pretty bad.  Somethingawful is good.  MSPA and Tvtropes forums are totally geeky.

The best thing about that site is despite all the you must login to view answer response just below a question if you keep scrolling down they are all repeated viewable. This might just be with firefox of course but I still find it amusing.

[Dwarf Fortress] plays like a dizzyingly complex hybrid of Dungeon Keeper and The Sims, if all your little people were manic-depressive alcoholics. - tv tropes

Internet is full of dark disgusting things. But the memory of the official Battlefield 2 forums, 2 months after release (it probably went on, but I read them only for a short time) still gives me the creeps.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

AllIsBrawl is said to be really bad.
Well it is, but I actually found it quite amusing (just been looking around, haven't been a registered member or anything)...

Oh Duke, I feel your pain; as someone who used to post at 4chan and SA, I'm still appalled by the state of the Minecraft forums.

Not that I know from personal experience, but hear through people I know- anything to do with cosplay + furries = flames and DRAMA.

In terms of moderators, wyrdysm. And the people aren't great, either.

For example, the post which got our good SHAD0Wdump banned there was editted by the infamous mod into "I'm a fucking faggot."

Based on people, Minecraft. Duke, why do you moderate those forums?
