What the hell happened to this place?

I remember a time when this forum used to be filled with intelligent people, and we'd actually talk about things worth discussing. Now I find it's full of 9 year old kids making topics about why Sonic is blue, or crap like that.

What the hell happened?

God knows, I guess it's just because there is a lack of activity, the only posts you notice are the rubbish ones, as opposed to the good ones.

Notice how the people are almost the same as the ones who posted in other threads.

They have taken over forums, like the COmics Forum, the NC Forum, and a few others...

I just noticed this forum still lacks a mod as well. I'm certain that has a lot to do with this.

I NOMINATE MYSELF MOD.

Do I accept?

Yes.

Done.

Nah, but I would love being a mod here. I don't really participate much in forum activity, though, but that's mainly because it all sucks, as you stated.

>_> I did used to be known as the "Sonic Lord," before.

Why hasn't anybody said "OMG WW is BACK!" yet?

Fine, I have to do everything around here anyway... amateurs...

OMG WW is BACK!

*ahem*

Oh, and yeah, this forum is the pits. Mainly because every Sonic game *except Rush* that has been released of late is trash.

Yeah, I know that you THINK that I'm 9,but I'm not,
and surprisingly, I almost completely agree with galefore.

I sounded so much like a noob just then didn't I.

Actually, Secret Rings rules. But it has a dumb story and name.
And the Sonic for PS3 is aight. But why the hell does Shadow drive vehicles instead of run like back in the days of SA2?
Silver is crappier than I expected him to be.

And I was called "Mario Lord". Feh, we were such losers.

eh, rings was ok, but i actually liked the control scheme of the Adventure titles, where you could control how fast you were going, rather than constantly be moving

Secret Rings is more of a Rail Platformer, which means we have a new Genre. Yet again.

I think it might be cursed. With people like me having run for it over and over again and others never keeping the job for long, if at all, the forum died.

That and there's more powerful Sonic fandom arenas elsewhere. The group here is dilluted and consists of the aformentioned 9-year old kids, some of the grizzled oldbies, and then a thin paste of quasi-Sonic fans.

It doesn't even matter if you wanted to be a mod. the other mods doesn't care enough to even make one for here.

That pretty much describes vgf in a nutshell.

What happened, you may ask?


Everyone who used to go to this forum bailed because seeing this reminded them of that abomination Cream the Rabbit, so out of fear, no one intelligent goes here anymore. *Smites Cream the Rabbit with a Pow Hammer*

Doug, what the hell are you talking about? If any character needs to be nuked off of Planet Freedom, it's actually both Big the Cat and Silver the Hedgehog.
