There are a few things I'd like to see sneak their way back into the forum. First is, of course, the portal. The content that once frolicked in the portal is now haphazardly jammed into a forum that seems like a nihilistic state. News Posters have dissolved into oblivion only to be replaced with a dam-broken surge of random information. The portal was, at its prime, a very informative little display of amatuer journalism which integrated nicely into my next piece of heyday lost in the fervor of internet trolls and life discussion. This forum was originally intended to be a gaming forum. It has always been a gaming forum in some respect but I feel like the basic idea has fallen and disappeared into some abyss of meaningless posts. What happened to the snappy reporting of new and upcoming games? All game discussion has fallen abjectly into a tiny corner of Zelaron's former glory. Now, don't get me wrong, I certainly do not completely oppose general discussion or frivolous chatter, but I feel that the forum has lost its way. When Sum Yung Guy asked me to post my opinion, it took me a while to remember how it used to be. I still visit from time to time but I just feel like nothing grasps my interest like it used to mainly because of the flood of uncaptivating titles and mostly drivel that plagues the New Posts list. The forum's members in the olden days were not so different from how it seems now as the period of madness apparently has drifted by and the morons have been replaced with what appear to be civilized folk. I think the forum is veering in the right direction and I would agree that if there is to be any council to govern, it should be Grav at the helm. I guess the main feeling I get is that the forum is both crowded and bare. I look over where specific subforums teeming with excited discussions have been replaced by whatever the fuck that NEWEGG thing is. I might have indentified the missing ingredient of today's forum as wit (and perhaps purpose), but this could easily be a gross oversight since I don't have the time to pour over every inch to find the edge.
I was going to say "There's my two cents ", but it looks like I laid down about three dollars. I will check back in to see if I can think of anything else, but I'm sure this little splurge is sufficient.
