I vote to have my old username back

That could be arranged :P

Regarding the site, a number of factors for sure...

• As some mentioned — the time period. This isn't 2006/7 anymore. The forum structure just doesn't punch the way it once did. 
  
  
• How we distribute sales these days may have turned some folks off (though that was inevitable, VGC gets less credit than it should for even attempting what it did).
   
• When the consoles were closer in numbers was the strongest point for VGC. And that makes sense. These days, Nintendo and Sony are runaway success stories. It's, for all intents and purposes, boring to many people. 

Of course, people have suggested a full overhaul to the anatomy of the site, but that's much easier said than done. But there are still plenty of folks around here, so as long as that is the case, there will always be activity!

Hello. Will you please unlock the thread on the UK riots, it needs a place to be spoken about or can I start a UK and EU politics thread? The argument was between two people who brought their fight over from the US politics thread. No fault of the thread at all. Can it be unlocked or can I start a politics form that isn't devoted to the US?
