[edit] Cheap Ass Gamer
It's spam Antibubbles 16:50, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep It may be advertising, though I get 98,200 Google hits. [1] It needs to be cleaned up, but that is not a reason to delete it. (Or blank it). [2] Sonic Mew | talk to me 17:41, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
- Note: Apparently there are only 24 unique Google hits though. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:45, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete I could have sworn this has been of AfD before, possibly under a different name. Anyway, I suggest a redirect to Cheapass Games. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:45, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. I cleaned out all of the inline external links. There were around 50 of them in the body of the article.

- Keep This is no different than any other entry describing internet culture (for example, Fark)[3] b0bx13
- Comment I am 99% sure this is a re-creation of material previously voted for deletion. Dpbsmith (talk) 23:01, 19 October 2005 (UTC) Yes, here it is: [[4]], 9 votes for deletion, none for keeping. Deleted 26 September 2005. However, the exact text of the new article is sufficiently different from this one that I don't think it can be validly speedied. It's much better written, but the reasons for deletion have not been addressed.
- Delete, per previous AfD, particularly per Barno, who commented that "Cheapass Games is notable in its field. This unrelated gamers' forum (whose spelling switches between "Cheap Ass Gamer" and "Cheapass Gamer") is not notable in its field." Dpbsmith (talk) 23:07, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
- Weak Delete Alexa 13k and falling, [5]. Unrelated to Cheapass Games. Otherwise nn. ∴ here…♠ 18:13, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
- Weak delete per previous AfD. Don't redirect to unrelated Cheapass Games. Barno 19:56, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Addressing the deletes: Those older entries were likely created by individual users of the message board and should not be taken seriously. This article is now under construction and will be brought up to speed quickly. "Cheap Ass Gamer" is the site's actual name as indicated on the site itself. The management has never used the name "Cheapass Gamer" in any context. A 13,000 Alexa rank could just as easily be 5,000 (and it has) as we all know Alexa is not accurate in these ranges. As a comparison, the above mentioned "Cheapass Games" has an Alexa rank close to 350,000. Thanks, -CD
- Comment However, Cheapass Games is a real-world company that happens to have a website to promote its business. They aren't relying on that site to present a case for notability. -Colin Kimbrell 14:38, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Seems like blatant advertising to me. But I'm new around here so not sure what the policy is with things like this.--Petros471 19:42, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Better after edits, but does not present an adequate case for notability. -Colin Kimbrell 14:38, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
