Improving Gamingforce

One of the better parts of Gamingforce was that it use to be more about posts and less about ... internetisms, if that makes sense. I think I first came her via Jessykins to find something involving Syndicate Wars because this was some place to find stuff out when it came to gaming - and now its a place you come to to throw Christians to lions and jews to panthers and white women to black men.

(Whoops, see what I did there?)

Okay, honestly though, this place has lost its edge by being without a point. I don't come here nearly as much not because of the people but more because theres no reason to talk to most people here, especially when the ones I want to talk to I have on AIM or Facebook already. Theres no good threads, the journals - though they get posted in - are rarely interesting and the rest of it is the usual suspects spinning the same posts as they were in 2002.

So how is it this place went to being called Gamingforce because it was about gaming to being called Gamingforce and being a site that tolerates music leechers, hates new people and internet humor?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Does the journal system support a back-up function? Certain blogging systems like Livejournal have things that allow desktop saving.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I guess I meant something that saves entries PLUS COMMENTS in XML format? :\

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If we're going to dump 3.x for v4, all I ask is that we're given time to back up stuff. I'm pretty sure I have PMs from Deni and Kyndig from years prior that have URLs in them I should keep on hand.

Yes, this JUST occured to me now.
