We arent being abused, we are just being ignored. Database has moved to Gamewise, which apparently makes more money than VGC. Forums dont have enough dedicated users to warrant a snazzy new update. Bugs wont be ironed out, because again, not enough dedicated users to warrant an update.

We don't get enough dedicated users because we have moderators who do not give put warnings before bans. Pretty pathetic if you ask me. When new users like myself do not have the time to read all the rules you don't ban them without a warning first. It's huge power trip if you ask me. Second complaint where is a mobile interface? I hate using my phone to comment. But why change when you have ads coming in regardless reason why i prefer pay sites.
  • New Users. Because new users have not yet shown a commitment to civil discourse, moderators will look more harshly upon them (and upon prolific rule-breakers) than established users with relatively clear moderation histories. If you are a long-time member of the site, it is easy to tell the difference between a light-hearted, humorous post, and a genuine piece of flamebait. This distinction is far less clear when you are a new user, so we advise caution.

Well it seems I am not the only one anymore.

I don't know what the Game DB is so don't really care.

I like the current form of VGC. There was a thread a while back showing this site years ago and I think the current site is a massive improvement from back then.

Haven't seen many bugs, but they do get fixed. Yeah the homepage was terrible for a while but it works again now doesn't it?

So that is why I disagree with you. Don't know what is not to 'get' there.

Ignorance is bliss for many newer members, although I can't really blame you.

The Game DB is the database we had for everything this site was basically built around. That's how we were able to creat our game collections, contribute to the website in a form other than threads, and keep track of every game releasing. Now that's all taken away. 

There are still bugs. There have been many slowdowns on this site before the most recent one. So no, it's not fixed. There's also problems with posting pictures at times as well as video.

@Others; Do NOT talk about moderations in this thread. My thread is not for that and I will report you if you want to go off into that. The Mod team gets bashed enough, I don't want it to start in here.

I don't know how you can deny that this website is awful, no matter how better it is compared to a few years ago. It has by far the worst web design of all sites I visit. Those ads, it's crazy.

How is that possible? VGC is much more popular. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

I got two warnings before my first ban. You must have said something pretty bad to start with off a ban. If I remember correctly you were calling someone a fanboy.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
