We all discuss the future of gaming here, so when this future arrives, what will we read in these forums? "The great Playstation 3 debate", "why Sega never need to release another console" and "Does anyone remember the X-Box?" could be possible titles of posts! And rather than just leaving text, we could supply audio files, with us speaking our opinions. Then the Gameaday winner would probably be someone that sang a little song. Further down the line we would have video clips, with Gameaday winners, doing a little "Nintendo Rap" and dancing around in baggy trousers, wearing big medalions.....

I think that this was one of the ones that just popped into my head, rather than a well thought out vision of the future. [] []

But your post here was about the future of the forum, not of gaming; although there is a slight convergence of the two ideas in your original train of thought, it was not conveyed fully in your expressiveness. Please be more careful in future.

You know, I don't think that that's my worst post!

I've posted many things that don't receive replies. Sometimes it's when I post something, that just pops into my head, and doesn't make sense, so I can understand a lack of replies to those ones, but when I've actually tried to make a decent point, and it gets ignored, that kinda upsets me. *_^

No, I think it was the mentality of the author at the time. I think the rest of us thought that it might be infectious or something.

You seen the new Eminem video with the deranged fan?
That's what I'm getting at here.

Was it because the thought of a big Meda-lion scared them away?

Roooooaaaaarrrrr!

Did you ever wonder why nobody replied to this post?
