The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
That's what some people seem worried about at this precise moment.
Let me re-assure you, as a customer of Special Reserves, I feel extremely confident that the forums will not be closed down permanently.
As Snuggly said, Security hasn't actually been anything to worry about from SR's side for the way the accounts were stolen was not to do with hacking.
From a business point of view, many MANY non-customers become customers after joining the boards (from seeing the Gameaday competition for the reviews) and the proceed to buy products through the website.
If it wasn't for these forums (and the old GAD competitions) I probably wouldn't have been a continuous member for the 5+ years I've been registered as a paying customer.
Sure, I'd probably buy the odd item, but wouldn't have bothered with membership, nor would I have stuck to UKgames.com to buy stuff to save the price of a pint on a game.
If it does happen, I'd be very suprised. It wouldn't be beneficial to anyone, except to those who want to cause mayhem for a virtual trophy or a claim to ill-fame.

You love it too, don't you? Want a little infantile mocking headed your way? All you have do is ask. You know you want it.
You two are as bad as each other.
I'm sure he's got a beautiful rear. I called him stupid. He loves it really.
No! He didn't call you a dumbarse did he!?!11111
Damn I'm really shocked! I think you should report him for it right now!

WEll some random god knows who from a forum who says he hates me and who calls me a dumbarse on a forum i dont like... but i dont GIVE a damn anymore so let this thread die.
How old are you two?
That argument read like a spat between two twelve year-olds.

But he can't say I'm a DUMBArse
Well i'm not the one who hates him.. i have nothing against him, i dont care because its only a FORUM.
It's funny because they claimed it was so much better in the old days.
Then they remembered the used to argue with one another.
Then they had a REALLY POOR un-imaginative fight.
If this was what it was like in the old days then I'm not sure I missed that much! :D

Stop bitchslapping each other. No offence to the fairer sex, but you're acting like a couple of girls fighting over who's nails are larger.
I don't care who started it. I don't care what its about.
Just finish it.
It's just not worth getting all angry over someone you've probably never met and probably wont ever meet.
It's bad enough people have had their accounts messed with let alone the forums get this kind of treatment from some of the older regulars.
Now go to your rooms and don't come back unless you're willing to apologise for what you've done. (starts hoovering)
:D
