Well people have responded; a lot more activity now...I'd imagine it won't last long though.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

@ Viper

 

We already had plenty of wii u is doomed talk. Can we talk about it anymore?

 

**edit***

 

Also see this thread.

 

gamrConnect Forums - Are you a Forum snob?

Add that to the reasons. You will know if you are a forum snob. Like I said, I could name names, but I would be banned.

Oh-ho-ho

We haven't seen anything yet! Brace yourself. Wii nter is coming to U!

It is simple and I have the answer for you all, but you will have to listen and not get angry when I say it.

Last week almost every thread was in the 100's and 200's on up to 500's of posts. I swear to god they were! Just go back a few pages.

We have banned and pushed around the people who are posting. When you take out the people that make up your business you have no customers. I am not saying the mods are wrong to do this, I am just saying that ....no matter what you do in life there will be consequences.
Libroex has been hitting it out of the park as of late with Nintendo threads the last few weeks. Where is he?

School started this week for many.

What happened to our posters? Ninpie vanished and that is 100 posts a day, Man bear all but vanished, Basel does not like to be called a spammer and left, APM = non-existent, Kantor, Carl, etc gone. Big users like Millenium and Yo_john fed up and gone, Mordred and Darth gone again.

What happened to RolStoppable? He is back, but is he?

Controversial members have been weeded out or are not on as much, HappyDolphin has a problem with Vgchart addiction and leaves on a weekly basis as well.

Nothing is going on right now.


Pieces of the puzzle that made the site successful are leaving or not posting like they should be and it takes a while to figure it out. All of this happened all at once. So it has hit the site a bit. Hopefully some will come back and start posting like they should. If not we will have to wait for new new members to take their spot. We were on a roll for a while!

But like I said, this could all just be going on for the start of school. For all any of us knows tomorrow it could be booming again. What do I know? I am only here all day long and night.

Like d21 said; you probably nailed it with this one! There's quite a few prominent members that isn't... all that prominent around here anymore. It's like they've all gone - well, with the exception of you spurge =) there's quite a few left, but there's also quite a few that's left...



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

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

I personally don't stay up at night posting anymore. I also don't post as much during the day because I've been learning to give RL the portion of time it needs. So I'm personally on less, but definitely still here.

So you're saying it's all your fault!

Pretty much

Well, my main reason I'm less active is that I finally bought Left 4 Dead 2 :P And school.


Got quite a few thread ideas in mind, some more interesting than others. We'll see when I get time for them.

The website hasn't been updated in ages. The site admins left a long time ago to work on other websites. VGchartz is a bit like the Wii in that respect: it had a lot of potential but its creators let it die before its true potential could be reached.



Gilgamesh on 31 August 2012

Oh yeh schools starting for pretty much everyone around now, in 2 -3 months it should pick up. We just got to hold down the fort till then.

I'd say it's already a lot better than just 2 hours ago! Early in the USA and people in school in Europe. In around 3 hours, we will reach the peak of the day (or near it).


I blame you for going to medical school. Just get a job at the local Lava production factory and call it a day.

We don't need factories to make our lava, the volcanoes do it for free ;o

yeah, but some ones gotta harvest it right?! It ain't gonna be harvesting itself ya kno'...

Lack of good moderation has killed the community in my eyes. The MS section was killed quite awhile ago. And now the others are also slowing down. Hard to have good discussions in this forum. Rules seem to apply to some but not others.
