Title: I'm stepping down.
Post by: Technine on October 10, 2009, 02:05:00 PM
I will be abandoning my role as an Administrator on this website. As well as no longer continuing activity.

Yes, I know that was hard to swallow. But I have my reasons.

One; my interest has been lost in this site, we all have been hand-fed info from Infinity Ward, therefore making it pointless to start threads about it and whatnot.

Two; we are lacking traffic. It has only been downhill since IW stopped keeping everything under wraps. I feel that I'm wasting my time Admining/Moderating maybe 7 or so active members.

Three; lack of control. Since none of the Admins are the webmasters of this site; that gives us very little control in taking things in our direction, and doing things the way we want. We do not own this site.

Four; this site will die. It is dying as we speak. I do not want to be here to see the death of it.

And..

Five; I am losing time to put effort into this. I have a job, school, as well as a semi-professional snowboarding contract which all need to be upheld.

In conclusion, I just want to say Thank You. I've been part of this for a while, and hate to see it end. There were some very nice people here and we have been through a lot of changes. I'm hoping to see everyone again in 2 years when we start picking away at MW3.

It was a good run, guys.

Cue outro music.

Hey man real sad to see you go. It's been awesome reading your posts over the months, way back since March-April when I signed up. I wish you luck with your snowboarding, school and job.

Peace

I don't want this website to die! With all the posting and getting the cool sig Gun made. And i have been posting related topics for the competition and i hate for all that effort to go down my own toilet (joke :D). Hope it lives longer for the next year or so.

Trust me, it will stay alive.  When the game comes out, it will be cool!  Of course we had IW hand feed us info.  It's their game for cryin out loud :D .

We'll keep on moving along, no need for another admin at this time.  Tech is a very motivated and creative admin, he just has other things on his plate. 

We all have our own lives and priorities.

Hey guys,

this is really sad to hear that Technine is leaving us.. Ireally thought that this was a forum on recovery.. I mean last 4-5 days has been low as far as Modern Warfare 2 is concerned.. Dont you guys think? I saw the other 247 forum as well and they also lacked their "normal activity"..

I guess this forum is surely on a resurgence.. I have got traffic stats with me, and it does shows an increase in traffic...

I hope he would occationally visit the forum in future and help us out..

If we consider, this is still the 2nd best unofficial forum on MW2?And i am sure we can make this work together..

How many sites have me as their official Artist?  Oh yeah thats right, none because this is the best.  I would only choose the best sites to commit to, and it seems obvious which one I chose! :D

When the game comes out we should make tips and hint threads for veteran mode and multiplayer.

Post by: Soap MacTavish on October 12, 2009, 02:38:56 AM
That is a good idea it could actually help people that need the trophies/achievments on veteran.

Great ideas guys..

I have to admit.. No other forum has got "Gun" to supply with graphical needs of the forum members..

Thanks. 

I like the idea of a tips and hints thread(s).  Maybe make a Campaign guide contributed by people who asked for a level?  Like we figure out all the levels, then we assign a level to a person.  This person makes a detailed tactical guide on how to play it and special stuff inside.  If each up the levels is done like this, then we can have the most extensive, and player savvy, guide on the internet!

I feel that the site just lost the "of" in "Call of Duty" :D
