VGForum... Sounds horrible...

Unfortunately ioi holds the keys to the kingdom, the kingdom being the sales numbers that have given the site its important niche until this past year.

Machina, Torillian, and the rest of the staff have been doing all they can to keep the site as up to date as possible, merging gamrReview back into VGChartz to give the site a more current news feed (and count me among those who praise the work done by the writing staff. Putting them and their work in the same breath as the other issues VGChartz faces is extremely unfair). That, and we're solely dependent on volunteer coders with extremely limited time like Truck and Tachi to help bring this site up to date.

It's abundantly clear that there's a plethora of folks who love this site and want to see it be the best it can be, and that includes forum goers who choose to make this site their home. Unfortunately, we're all locked out of the kitchen, and we're just getting by with scraps.

I have faith in all those I've mentioned previously, and I know they will do all they can to ensure that VGC can flourish, but until VGChartz is Video Game Chartz, we can only do so much to sustain the site.

Vgchartz are kicking themselves in the foot, late data means no one is checking here for news anymore, cant be promoted on n4g etc.

Less data, less people eventually. The only people who will stay here are the active forum'ers and even they will slowly go away

I think yes, no numbers, slow news and moderators aline with companys like sony or others break the balance and the impartiality, this are the reasons vgchrtz is going to crash.

Ok thank you for the clarification. In all fairness it should of stopped after my second post that explained what I meant.

Let's just move on.

The community, the conversation, the clever argument posted in discussion is on another level to other site I have tried which have "constant trolling" and a lot of very stupid post (N4G for example). I haven't try GAF yet, so cannot really talk about it. I miss the numbers but the discussion are still as good and amazon is keeping things interesting. Now if amazon were to post 4 straight month wrong then I will start missing the numbers

Ah, I see. I understand,  and that's definitely valid.  I think it may have been more clear if you worded it to say "coming from someone who hasn't expressed interest in contributing to the site" instead.

Either way, as you said, it's purely academic at this point lol.

Problems With Moderation. If you have a problem with a moderator or a moderation, send the moderator who issued your moderation a private message (Rule 11 applies to PMs as well as posts, wall posts, and any other moderator-related conversation), and if you are still dissatisfied, send a private message to the Lead Moderators.

• Do not post these issues in the forums, outside of moderator-sanctioned threads, or on the moderator's wall - doing so will result in moderation action against you.

This is the second time this has been posted. There won't be a third folks. If you have a question or complaint, either PM the moderator who issued your moderation or a head moderator (Veknoid, Axum, or Carl). Thanks. :)

I like vgchartz better without all those annoying sales data, Now we get good threads about the NX instead of the usual '' weekly sale of whatever day that started the week'' and all the shitty sales whores have left the site.
