Turkish, trolling is bannable on GAF same as here. Just letting you know (especially since you're still a Junior on GAF).

I think both sites have great communities, although NeoGAF is much larger so it has more traffic and a wider range of discussion. Of course I wish the admins on VGC were a bit more involved in the community and conversed more with the users.

lol I left June 2011 and came back in May 2012 people had no threads to post in until I came back, it's the only explanation :P

We still had some of your everlasting threads with us.

lol calling some of his NSFW Discussion threads everlasting is an understatement 

 

Not all of his threads are NSFW.

The drop in activity seems to coincide with the creation of my account.
I scared everyone away with my avatar.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

I stayed around, but I post a lot less after the shitty formatting change. A lot of my posts get lost and the only ones that dn't have to be Quick Replies.

Would that be the shitty formatting change of 2009, 2010 or 2011? 

Every new format brings complaints that the site has been broken, so you'll have to be more specific.

I agree.  It's nice to see the admins mingling with their userbase sometimes.

This site will undoubtedly be revived along with the new generation.

Sales are just not as important as it used to be, specially so late this gen. This statement alone is reinforced with the OP graph.



Yay!!!

man-bear-pig on 12 August 2012

Sales discussion has been more interesting lately...the last couple of 'Globel Up!' threads have had ~200 posts each, which is a huge increase from the ~30 posts they were receiving in the last few months. I guess it's because the next gen is officially underway!



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

And the increase is just quickening. The last bump on the graph can largely be attributed to the Wii U launch, but it's a nice bump nonetheless.

The VGChartz population is now half of what it was at its peak, but twice of what it was at the bottom.

In other words, good news!

Well, thank you Nintendo and Wii U for that :D



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Eh, what this made me remember was that VGChartz was full of fanboyism and console war mentality. So with the PS4 and new Xbox, we should see that again.
