Hello. While I was exploring AG-based Xats, I've met several unactive/banned/"old-school" AG Users. Most of them said that, one of the main reasons to their inactivity here is that the site was better before.
Is that true?
How better? They say that the threads had more quality back in time.
Well, I can't tell if it was. I joined June 26th, so that's not too much knowledge on our awesome site...
Cormyn talks about it here. It depends on what forum engine they use and if they can migrate everything onto it. It would be sad if they do actually wipe everything.
I hope the forums are wiped. Nubs will take over and become the top 10 and whatnot, but anyone worth respecting will either remember and respect the old members, or will eventually become one of us.
One of the current armatar packs is full of dragons.

Actually no, since game ratings will be dissolved right?
Fine, I'll try and read your posts Roger. I'll try.
Thank you.
Funny thing, I was actually reading everything except the bolded sections :P
Honestly, best thing to do is read ALL the words!
A stalker? :O
I wouldn't say a stalker but, hey, who knows?
Usually it's to look for a place to post, but for someone who hasn't posted in many months, I don't think she's doing much lurking at the moment...
I guess that if she lurked from time to time and posted occasionally, the community would be a tad better.
To lurk. Lurkers understand perfectly well why, so I'd imagine.
I... think I lurk occasionally.
Lurking without a cause? Not sneaky, just futile.
Mostly because I'm bored or looking for a thread that worths posting in it.
What baffles me is that 99% of the people who introduce themselves in that section are users who you'll never see again anywhere. It's been this way for as long as I can remember.
Yeah, that's quite odd. I usually meet people out of the Newcomers section. But when I do meet a friendly person in the Newcomers section, I usually don't hear back from them
unless she's spying on us... *glances left and right*

I just noticed how active and popular the forum games are right now. It makes me sad that the rest of the forum is no longer like that.
Yeah, that's true. I haven't visited the WEPR since... last month. But I surely noticed that it doesn't look so active at the moment. Maybe the "generic-like" threads are frightening the Forum-ers away! That also happens in the Tavern, where threads might take a long time to get an answer.
But that can be explained by the word: "School"
Come out and show yourself Carlie. We know you're there.
PLEASE!
I guess games are more fun than making [good] conversation...
...they are time-spenders...
I spent over an hour one day looking for my introductory thread. I don't think I ever found it.
I've never made a thread there, I think.
But they aren't! Most of them are just the exact same game with some slight minor difference that leads people to believe it's an entirely different game, when they should know darn well it isn't.
True... they look all the same. And their walkthroughs look all the same, as well.
It hurts my brain reading Roger's walls of texts. There's no need to reply to everything.
READ THEM! I like replying. Better than spamming!
lol stop typing in bold its hurting my head too x.x
Really? So this is the last time, sorry.
^ the vets do this every time we see bold/long stuff from people we don't care about.........actually, even if we do care about you....
aka, I'm too lazy to read it.
Gosh, if we keep this talk up we might spark a small AG revival....
Keep on going!
...if the forums are wiped in AG3 then it doesn't matter.
I sit on the middle, unsure. Threads from AG2 can be kept as memories, but, in the other hand, that would mean carry the crappy threads to AG3 too.
That's a helluva senior center.
Rambo's senior center.

Those threads are already buried, necroing will just get you a warning and maybe a ban. Also, people will still make crap threads in AG3. And the vets will still be moaning.

Nice point. And, oddly enough, Old quality threads can't be saved, or they are considered "Necro".
I still don't fully understand why "necroing" is bad. Revived threads aren't like zombies with decaying corpses. Just a thread with an old (I mean OLD) OP.

I bet ten billion dollars that the majority of threads in AG3 will be (when it's released, "Do you like AG3?", "Do you hate AG3?"....etc.
