The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Well, it was actually the fact that the notables all seem to hate this place now. When I came here, it was these guys that were the life and soul of the forums, and made me consider coming here more often, so I did, but recently the forums have been overrun by rubbish. There is far too much Spam and chat going on in topics people would like to be treated with respect. In the past people would post here, and have a laugh, but keep the mindless banter and insults to MSN or for e-mails, but now this forum seems to be a general chat sever, and it is losing the people that made this place special in the first place.
I know this post will be treated like every other regulars concerns and be brushed aside, but just stop to think for a second what it is you are doing here, and whether your chatter would be better kept for MSN or a proper chat server, if it could, then it would be much better to kep it there rather than clutter this forum with what is known as "SPAM". I don;t know if anyone will listen to this or not, and I;m not expecting miracles, but I know that Grix has become disillusioned and fed up with this forum, and that to me is a problem..............
"Ah, but were one mind finds dullness, another finds enlightenment."
That would be because the person doesn't understand truely what has been said, I would suppose.
But then:
"GBA games are cartiges. they are TINY"
"they cost MONEY"
We're really going wrong somewhere.
"Only when we are of one conscious mind can we truly decide what is right and what is wrong."
Nothing is right or wrong, but something is crap and something is good. You can't fart and call it art.
Cretin.

People spout rubbish and make a mess.
So what!
So long as Prime and the Stories archive stays nice and tidy then it doesn't really matter if the chat forum gets spammed a little bit.
The Chat forum was designed to keep spam out of Prime.
The idea of the Chat forum is that there's no restrictions.
If someone posts a spam topic then ignor them and it will sink beneath the heavy load of more popular topics.
If you complain and moan then you just give them something else to babble about.
> You can't fart and call it art.
Ah, you are *so* wrong. It's obviously an art you have yet to master.
Patience, young Thraves. Your time will come.

Cue Stewie voice...
What the *hell* are you smoking?
