Does this site really need groups? That would only split the activity even more.
I mean...I could tighten up the rules so that it's a more friendly environment for newcomers. I seem to recall people being all for a more strictly moderated community. Activity is definitely stagnated for the moment and I'd be all for trying something new.I really, really want to start building up a collection of reviews and articles created by users here and organize/display it on the front page after it gets a facelift. I would even be down with giving authors a cut of the ad money for page views on their article.Mobile needs to be looked at, which I will have to do since Isara has vanished again (this is like the 32nd time...). I've been working with a really nice framework that would make the browsing experience here on mobile more like an app, so that will probably help if I can start work on it.In the far future: Groups are going to be pushed back for the nth time so I can focus on this other stuff. Once SMF 2.1 releases a release candidate that is stable, I will likely upgrade the site and begin work on Sep7 3.0. This would allow us to have an alert system that works and a better PM system as well (along with a less tabled layout). But like I said...far future.

Just wow. You know exactly what I'm talking about with this. I guess I'm the only one who actually holds onto human decency.I'm now willing to start fresh with 98% of the people here. Maybe 97 now. I dunno. Just....We can never really have a positive moment that really affects everyone positively, there always has to be some sick fucks with a hard on for this kind of shit.The card game threads are the only good positive thing. I wish we had more positive vibs like that, instead of a flame war, and if this was just elaborate rusing or "trolling" which it really isn't trolling tbh, its just retarded...Its gotten stale. Like you guys just keep posting the same old shit. For fucks sake save it for Anarchy, its not even Anarchy ya know?I know not everyone in this community is retarded, but some of you people.... its really questionable to what goes through your head.I don't know about you guys, but I don't really get a kick on starting a flame war."But Deci, YOU RUINED STAR WARS YOU AUTISTIC FAGGOT!"I know, I know I know, and I don't feel good about it. Honestly I don't know how some of you can feel good about pissing off certain people tbh. I suppose outside of that card game, its what keeps this site standing. Still.... its not really a fun feeling... for me at least. We can do better as a community, but.... I'm not the one to lead a choir of angels with my history.Oh well at least I have the Gaming forum to enjoy.
That's definitely what I don't want.
Here's my final form

I've been going on spacebattles.com a lot (Cool place. It's nice to be able to have somewhere filled with people with similar interests), combined with having a bunch of work over the past week I forgot about here in honesty

What's it about? Might join.it's a website for discussion of science fiction and (to a lesser extent) fantasy. There's a lot of creative writing stuff and RP threads but my main thing is technical discussions, as there's a lot of discussion about the scientific and military practicality of a lot of SF stuff like tanks and spaceships and whatnotit's a fairly large site and its been around for a while, I've only recently started using it.
I almost quit the site when I first started. Quite a few of you are very hostile and unwelcoming to the newbies.
I mean. I'd be all for a clean restart of the site (As in unbanning all the troublemakers, you rank whores).

I'm more than willing to give them another chance because, like it or not, it's gotten far more boring here without them.

This site kinda made my internet persona into the one of a degenerate.
Can one of you Sep7agoons send me an invite to the Skype group?
