Somehow i doubt goatporn would attract many new subscribers, though buttocks would pay for membership for a site like that.

How about a spam porn site, just lines and lines of posts all with blitz's name on them. Be like dangling crack in front of an addict.

Well I wouldn't be opposed to it staying open of course, that depends on Rude's wallet. I have far too many memories in the database I'd like to look back to someday, heh.

I realise we've shifted domains in the past but perhaps a more radical approach is needed. Earlier I only just noticed that the site's forum index has been snipped down dramatically.

How about we all choose a game thats on the horizon?

We'd obviously keep the offtopic going strong but all contribute to finding and posting information about a particular game or genre.

Is there any games anyone here thinks has the potential to base this forum/site on? A game thats obviously not out yet?

Post em up guys.

consoles run the world now

outside of starcraft 2...there is no games that deserve mentioning when compared to the consoles.

strvs · 03-07-2008, 06:35 PM

we could go ahead and choose a game randomly, but will anyone be dedicated to it? does anyone have time to run a game website? write articles, reviews, get the latest news? i certainly don't..

we should just advertise as an offtopic forum.. maybe have some sort of front page where we can write funny articles and post funny pictures and show our penises

I can perhaps get people to want to come and post here

but hey...why would ya want people whoa ssociate with me to come here?

I know a whackload of online peeps...some are a little messed up...but most would contribute well...but i don'tknow if I could get them here...they already have a community...which ahs like 50 people online at most moments.

i think the only game that we had the chance to go and focus on was medal of honor airborne, but EA cocked that up with their shitty support for online.

and i dont see any big potential fps games coming out soon either on pc or consoles so we are screwed in that aspect.

migth aswell just ressurrect aa.com and start playing mohaa again.

edit; actually there is left 4 dead out in september, and that should be a pretty intense game and very community based with itsa maps and mods. could call the place rightfordead.com

elstatec · 03-07-2008, 07:46 PM

but was also thinking, communities are more likely to exist if they start from the beginning.

no ones going to join a new community if there are already 40 users with 5000+ posts that have been here since 2002.

its flawed anyway we try

how about we grab maple and start a WoW forum?

thats true, consoles are the shit now, and will be for a long time. consoles will be the next entertainment system, everything in one box. turn this forum into a console themed place and i bet alot of people would start cumming here.

its because everyone grew up and found out about money, jobs and pussy. Everyone evolved from twatty douche teen to, balls wound tight 20 somethings who have college work, jobs(except for gerv) and art trying to get laid.

it is what it is

True.

In that case, I think allowing mature content on here may bring a lot more. Not sick stuff...ah I dunno, I'm out of ideas

Hey guys sorry about my tardiness.

The site is here for all of you, BS passed it on to me or I asked BS to pass it on so I could keep it alive for all of you.

No ones going to hurt my feelings if they want the site gone, everything will be backed up and saved. Everyone knows where and or how to get in touch with me.

As for the site, other then the vB license and theme (one or two I forgot) it does not cost me anything to host.- and some of you donated to help cover part of that cost.
It's on the same server as my personal site and FPSadmin, so as long as FPSadmin is around and the sponsors help cover that cost these forums will be here.

Just for the facts, other then news I don't post much in the forums over there (FPSadmin) either. - just don't have the time.

I had high hopes for the site but like Gerv mentioned EA helped drive that idea into the ground rather quickly.

BS still has not transfered the AA.com domain to me, even after I paid for an additional year for him but I know he had some issues with the domain company.

Other then Porn, sorry guys. it's your call.

Then there is the archive idea, close the site but keep it open for anyone to search it.
