Forums - Website Topics - The 'Voice of the Community' gives VGchartz 2.0 Review.

To those who do not know me I am the 'Voice of the Community'. Who else should review the new update but the heartbeat of the site Megaman.2., I will be honest and professional in my review. I will leave no stone unturned. Start the kettle, get the biscuits out and enjoy the review. 

When I first saw the new update I was sad, I had gotten so used to the old version that I was sad it was no more. I had spent most of my career as a journalist, editor in chief and a stealth troller with the old version, so you can understand my sadness. My initial thoughts was that I like the new font, the new black colour really looks cool and professional which is hard to combine. The past few days I have noticed very small updates that really adds value to the site. So far i've been impressed.

I've spoken to the community on many occasions to get their thoughts on the new update, many seem to enjoy what it has done in terms of the small updates. But many are still complaining about the font colour many prefer the old version to be integrated with the new updates. This is something the administrators should look into.

Despite some nice updates Megaman.2. is not happy. Why you ask?

I was hoping that VGchartz 2.0 would go into unforeseen territories, and implement something extravagant. What I was hoping for to be implemented was:

  • Trolling Sunday - Give us a day in the week where we can go crazy, trolling without having to fear the hammer is quite frankly priceless. Believe me nobody would leave their homes on sundays, the forums is where the entertainment is at. Trolling sunday would see the new high score go from 10,917 to 38,983 in a matter of minutes.
  • Sales adjustment Monday - The Wii has been on fire no doubt and give credit to Nintendo, but even I would love to see the ps3 or x360 dethrone the Wii in WW sales. That is where Sales adjustment Monday comes in, every monday either the ps3 or x360 is given the the no1 spot on the WW sales beating out the mighty Nintendo DS and Wii in combined sales. This is in itself would cause havock loool, every monday there would be war - I like it!
  • Flamebait News Wednesday - This would  mean releasing news that is not true, This will cause an absolute bloodbath lol. How does it work? A member who was moderator saturday the previous week is also granted the opportunity to post Flamebait news. An example a Sony fanboy posts through the news section that Kingdom of hearts 3 has gone ps3 exclusive, talk about fire! people will get banned lool.
  • Console war Friday - Let the fanboys do battle on Friday how will it work? Every camp (nintendo, sony and Ms) produces their top poster, each camp will do battle to claim the no1 spot. The poster's thread which has the most posts and views is the winner and is granted the privilege of 'Moderator saturday'
  • Moderator saturday - To become a moderator, as I mentioned earlier you must win console war friday. Those who are Moderator Saturday can ban any member they do not like for up to a week, however that hammer will expire on Sunday. So think wisely lool.

Will we see any of my recommendations being implemented, probably not.

In conclusion I must give respect and praise to those who have implemented VGchartz 2.0, the site went from excellent to instant classic. I have the backing of the community when I say much respect. +1

Also special praise reserved for TalonMan and Nordlead they have been working hard behind the scenes keep up the good work.

Closing comment - Is it possible to give a Website an 11? If so, this would be the site that would merit that score. VGchartz 2.0 is a title that exceeds all of the hype that was attached to it.

Megaman.2. out

Nice review. Only you could give a website 11/10 Megaman :)



lol, great post, but I think you need to give some more credit to ioi and his brother




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I dislike the color scheme, but I like the site layout.



Trolling Sunday is the best idea I've ever heard. We should implement it.



I was getting tired of this whole Sony Leader crap, however that is one brilliant post Megaman.

As the sworn enemy of RolStoppable, I can officially claim you Rol-worthy. *salutes*
