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

At first when I joined a week ago I was here for a game, just the idea made me high.But now I realize it's not just about winning games it's about having great discussions.

I think in some ways the Gameaday and Filmaday competitions have failed in improving the site. Fine, there are loads of new members, but many of these people come along simply to win a prize rather than just enjoy the forums for what they, and post interesting topics, think about them, and continue to contribute afterwards.

I know some people will think it's a bit much, me, a newbie myelf, saying this, but I have been around since January, and I have seen the quality decrease, just like all the real, long-term regular regulars.

Someone might say:

"Stop complaining and make the FOG better yourself, unless you are incapable"

However, I shall remain indifferent to the situation - er-no, why don't you read my Budweiser post? I thought that was quite readable. It's over in Gedi Prime FOG>

Brilliant! As usual the careful and intuitive production that Freeola puts into everything it sets out to do, I am delighted.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
