My vote goes for GF1.

I have long believed that a "clean slate" would provide multiple benifits to AA.

With a new design and content you can expect to see traffic surge, and not all of that traffic will be noobs guys. Either way, where we not all unknowlagable at some point?

You will see the elimination of the ban lists and a more open and free gaming community. This will make huge changes in the "attacks" AA has come to accept. While you will never be rid of personal differences, a positive outlook and forgivness can do wonders.

The marketing benifits speak for themselves.

It is true you may loose some of the first AAers to either laziness or bitterness, but I think that the new comers will more than make up for those who have little to contribute or are here for the purose of conversation.
** Thats not a cheap shot, so don't take it as one. This site is much more than an off-topic section guys, and most of the visiters to this site are looking for info, mods, maps, or news. Most could care less about Brittneys new boyfriend.**

As an individual that has spent most of my time in the Art section, I can assure you that if you need something you need only ask BS. I cannot think of anyone with skills that I personally know who would not be willing to help.

While this site has become quite an institution and carries with it a rich and interesting history, that in no way should suggest that it is incapible of change or advancement.

Perosnally I say stay AA.com, as bad as I am, and a few others, all the "noobs" and spammer will ruin all the friendships we have made, like the one I and STATIC have. Oh well, I guess everything comes to an end. annoy:
