To be honest, it was hard to watch this site for the past 10 months (especially from a position of head mod), for the sole reason that we had, for the most part, lost our lifeblood on what makes this site so unique and important. As much as we could easily coast on the great community and other positive site changes (like the re-merger with gamrReview), that's all we could achieve: coasting. Without the numbers, VGChartz had lost its niche and its purpose and had become "just another site". Every day I saw a growing frustration with an increasingly out of date (in both content and features) site that had lost its passion.
Obviously there was a community of folks who were still passionate about VGC, both in the community and behind the scenes, and that passion and commitment has helped VGC through its current growing pains. it was a huge victory to have Machina back on VGChartz since the merger, and thankfully he and the team have not stopped in their dedication to make this place a thriving site once again.
So a big thanks to ioi for handing over his baby to very capable hands, because I understand what a leap of faith that can be. A big thanks as well to Machina for not giving up on the site and for always pressing to make this site a better place. And a big thanks for everyone who worked to make VGChartz the best it could be over the past 10 months. I know it could be difficult at times, not knowing where this site was heading. But here we are, and we're all in this together. :)
To a new chapter in VGChartz, may it be better than ever. ^_^
