| ioi said: Which bugs, which tools, which clustered mess? As far as I'm concerned, it is business as normal on VGChartz. We have weekly data, we have regular sales articles, we have forums. I have posted numerous threads in the last few months asking for lists of issues / improvements and most have come back with nothing so I'm keen to learn what the "bugs" are that you mention? In terms of tools, a couple of months ago we added a bunch of the analysis tools back to the site (under the tools menu):
Are there any other specific tools you feel are missing? Finally, how is the database a clustered mess? As has been mentioned previously, the ability to follow and rate particular games has now been removed (since this has now been superceded by Gamewise) but your old collections still remain. Basic game entries and data now feed through from Gamewise - when a date is added there it will update on VGChartz - makes far more sense than trying to manage two databases at once. Other than that, I don't see an issue here? So yes, in terms of development / admin support then things are no different to how they have ever been. As has been explained in the past, we have been gradually streamlining and simplifying VGChartz back to a sales-focused site as it was back in 2006-2008 before we began expanding and "bloating" the site as many felt with new features - so a lot of non-sales functionality has now gone elsewhere as was the plan. But to answer your original question no, nobody has been abandoned. |
1: This user's post has been removed. Makes life miserable for everyone, and is supposedly a hyper simple fix if someone just opened up the code and flipped an option somewhere. Makes my job harder, i know that.
2: I haven't been able to add break lines in my sig for years, so i can separate the sig section from the bottom "tag" section.
3: User's ability to post in locked threads.
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
