In the past few weeks we have noticed that FM has gone for good, also now Sniper has gone and today we see that the FOG's best poster has gone.
Also M16 announced his leaving, and he was a great like the others.


Only a a number of us really understand where these people are coming from, back in November last year THE FOG was amazing, every day I would look forward to reading peoples comments, people who loved to talk about gaming and not for the winning purpose, I came as a newbie back then and was amazed at the quality of the topics... since then everyday I have seen a decrease in the quality and the numbers have grown way to high.

The only way I can see a way through this is that SR make a forum specially for the ones Grix mentioned, as those are the people that made the FOG great.

We don't want to win games, we just want to talk about gaming, so SR give Grix and others what they deserve. a forum for the greats, because if you didn't have them, there would be no forums.

Otherwise I can see many others disappering. (including the likes of Edgy, ssxpro, pb etc...)
Thanks

'The Special Forum' how about that? Everyone can call it the FOG but it will be special?

Not with the introductory idea, it might also increase the quality of posts as users in the FOG will want to become a part of the new forum.....

To keep bloody weirdo's away from this site, you could get people to give their emails to get a special password to get their acounts working!
now they can go away.

But isn't that phasing newer regulars out? They may have valid points and try their best just like regulars who have been here for a long time.
