I would like to say the Game DB... but the winner goes actually to the 30sec pause before posting

This affects me a lot and I find it really annoying that I have to wait for the timer to count down before I am able to post again...

Now waiting for another 30sec before I can post in the Game Character thread.. D:

We have a countdown clock? O:

Most people don't encounter this because I post a bit differently :p

It is very noticable when you are trying to reserve spots in a thread and posting again will have the 'problem with your post'

Do you save your replies and try to post them all one after another?

The lack of ioi

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

When I log in, I go to the lastest topics and open all of the topics that interest me and respond to them if they are interesting

sometimes OPs are short and don't have much reading so I get stopped by this feature

Wouldn't be a problem if he just let the people that actually care for vgchartz handle this website.

The lack of a proper working and fully updated user friendly game database.

The game database, other than that I can't think of anything else.

Rain2 said:
Thing that annoys me most about the site -> Lack of a fully working database

Thing that annoys me most about the community -> The fact that some users feel entitled as if they deserve what they want from game developers

Game database for sure.

-Slow Hardware Figures Updates

-NX Rumor Threads (I'm probably gonna get negative replies because of this)

The Game DB..... (see's everyone else in agreement, nice) xD

I gotta chime in on this one. The game DB used to be really good and useful before 2012. Constantly updated listings, reviews, cheats, etc. I don't think any of you except for maybe NobleTeam360 were here back then. All of the functionality moved to Gamewise, which has a lot of content, but is pretty much a dead site right now (never really caught on tbh). The game listings here are supposed to automatically update from there, but from what I've seen, there are plenty of flaws with that. Not to mention things like game collections not working at all. Looking at the way ioi's running the site now, the DB is probably the last thing on his mind. *shrugs*. It stinks because Gamewise was supposed to be IMDB for games, and it is. It's just that the side is a complete ghost town, and the DB here isn't what it used to be.
