You guys have been slacking! I mean, Gaming World as a whole. I remember a time, long ago, when this site used to do amazing things.
First off, it used to be that Gaming World reviewed games and demos. Luckily people like grep are around now to review/preview a pile of stuff, but really Gaming World should be chalk full of reviews and previews!
Secondlyest, what ever happened to a little something I started called Mail Bag? Where is the GW WIKI? Where hath Bartek Gniado gone? Where is the massive database of resources that used to be hosted here?
I really did not come here to complain. It does seem the site is doing good and there are some great people surfacing. There was a time when I was fairly worried about the future of Gaming World, but I have to say that, much to my surprise, Gaming World is still alive and kicking.
You might be seeing a lot more of me around. Or maybe not.
Cheers to all my old mates, and here's to some new ones, right? :)

It's really not.
-
Well, GW outgrew Rm2k and the shitty adolescent humor you're describing. It will be a fully functional site in time though.
-
It's alive, that's true.
-
yeah we basically grew up and realized we didn't care about half of that stuff anymore
-

Is there a topic somewhere that outlines GW's future plans and what the target audience of this site is et?. It seems clear that a lot of people (including myself actually) are confused about the status of this website. Nothing has changed since the day the new layout on the main page came into affect like 5 months ago or so. what the fuck is going on??

Yeah I understand that. Things were halted because me and ASE both had to switch focus to real life priorities and we've had literally 0 time for computer-related projects, but we do have a clear goal in mind that will be realized in the upcoming months.
Also I like the WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??? because GW's been completely dead for like two years and it's not like you're missing out on something important right now.

welcome back to belross
where is that man

he was just here. i swear it!

Out of all the posts I read, this one most accurately described my feelings as well. All the site really needs is content. The users and target audience will materialize if the content is there... I mean, how many of you were around for the original RPGMaker.net days and the first split where Gaming World even came about? I've witnessed the birth (and death) of several communities.
GW is a long way from dead, however, if there is no concerted effort to make plans and contribute valuable content for the future, then you may have to break out life support. :)

i didn't read anything in this topic !! where is belross
-
heeeeere i aaaaam to save the daaaaay
-
sorry fellas, i cant stay
trerrorism sleeps for NO 1

I will be very surprised the day gw becomes a fully functional site, but that would be nice.
-
In all honesty, the site seemed perfectly fine like 7 years ago in 2003. The main page worked great and had lots of content, yeah there were some bugs, but nothing crippling. It was a huge mistake to scrap that system and try starting from scratch, and something which I think really affected the community. Better to have a functioning, if imperfect, main site, than NO MAIN SITE AT ALL EVER AGAIN FOREVER ARGH.
-
Are you going to beat us?
-
Belross keep us safe from terrorism abroad.
-
i've never cared about the main site all i care about is i used to be able to check the forums 5 times a day and there'd always be a fair few new posts.
-
hello belross. we appreciate your service *crying eagle american flag gif*
-
I can't deny I would love to see a mainsite with actual new content sometime.... =P

there uh...IS a mainsite???? it's more active than the one we had sitting around for a good two or three years that never got updated with coastercraft gold on the front page
All the site really needs is content.
THIS IS THE HARD PART man, do you really think that this is something we can just pluck out of the trees? the problem with trying to make a genuinely worthwhile site instead of a site full of rpgmaker graphics is that you actually have to work hard to make it happen and a lot of us are too busy with other things to write articles for a website

Let's just get atari to make RPG maker tutorials and the days of old would be in reaching distance.
But in all honesty the amount of help the old GW offered brought me here and atari's tutorials played apart in that in fact he was the main reason why I started to come here... Kinda of funny that are birthdays fall on the same day.
What we need is a hook something to make the new commers bite and fresh content to keep them here. We need to provide something that may take GW to the next LV.
