Actually I was but then decided not to. |
I totally agree with them too.. i became VGChartz member much earlier than joining Neogaf.. but now i barely visit VGChartz and even much less comment here.. I feel the owner of the site has taken a wrong direction..
this site doesnt look like a place of serious discussion from the get go.. you feel you have come to a music or some hip hop site.. i so much loved the VGC 1. it was simple and portrayed the strength of the website. right now VGC is following the Sony policy where they dont know what they want from their device. Is it news more important or sales figures or forums or articles or ads at the end..
and i think in designing their web sites they have lost their focus on forums and numbers also. certainly its true for me. almost every yr they have a new design which i find worse then the previous one, sales data is late.. their forecast are usually a bit biased. and forums are quite a bit slow now..
Anyway this is my reason for leaving this site. on neogaf its simple, good moderation.. u wont find 10 threads on one news item. they organize it n manage it a lot better than here in my view. and lot of people bring some new info, news or have a good opinion..
Anyway i voiced my concerns once a long time ago when the moderator asked for the views on new design..
