FYI, I'm having the "notification drop down menu doesn't load" issue mentioned in the above posts.
 
The messenger drop down menu loads fine, however.

If you check your notifications using the above link and deleting maybe 1 page of your notifications. It should fix the continuous loading notification bar.

Some information was passed on to me that the "alt account" that harassed Traken was not an alt made by aircobra, but meant to look like it was aircobra to get him a perma ban. Might be worth looking into...

There was another alt account created by "Dave/Pepsiman/IATCG alts" to impersonate him after the ban but Aircobra did make an alt account himself. I'm not sure which one PMed Traken but I'll pass this info to him.

Contrary to popular opinion, I only bothered with that for a month or so two years ago. The community and mods roundly agreed that no conversation was off topic unless the OP says so, so I dropped it. I just scroll past stuff that doesn't interest me.

I still think its wildly inappropriate to talk about your health problems, family deaths, or other personal issues on a public forum thread specifically designated for game deals on a particular platform, but I just scroll past them quickly so I don't have to think about some stranger I'll never meet's suffering. I have enough problems dealing with the suffering and misery I see at my job, I don't need more exposure to that when I'm looking to save money on escapism.

For big deal threads like this one, off topic discussions are okay as long as it doesn't go on for multiple pages, taking away the main purpose of the thread. Personal issues should remain private but we don't have any problems with it being discussed as a one off.

We normally don't address bans against other members but I would like to clarify aircobra's ban. He wasn't banned due to Zantra editing his post. Aircobra has been on our radar for being disrespectful to other CAG members. His ban by Traken was initially a temporary one for about 2 weeks so he can chill out. He apparently made an alt account and PMed something to Traken which I assume means it's a permanent ban right now.

As for Zantra, I placed his account on silence for a week so he can take a break from posting after reviewing the community reports. I feel like he is getting bullied for the way he post but also at the same time his posts has been disruptive to the community.

It's not in stock.

It was available for a couple of minutes before I posted. Took me awhile to log back on CAG and submit post. Check again at x:40 - x:50 depending on your time zone. No guarantees, Best Buy could be done for the night.
