...For killing us design sites....>.<
Blame the pb staff. They poked us into the ditches with the new opening of the Pb support graphics and coding boards. They didn't realized that with that hanging thread in which all graphics board hang on to, it has been cut and we are falling down the pits.
Now with all the dookie-holes that we are in, many of us design sites are hanging to our last bit of thread before the admins and staff snap their neurons and go offline from this world.
Designing Proboards for 5 years of experience. Along with 4 years experience with Popoweb....good o' days...has left me nothing but to fuel my empty passion of creating what is deemed great and competitive against the old SSD and ZD, including F5 and G101...into ashes...
For years and years, I have tried to find the suitable niches to cater the community...but as we all know. Many of us Proboarders are nothing but an inbred bunch of people, especially design sites, floating between each other's comfort, trying to gain our piece of fame within each other. Thereby not expanding much of our traffic to the real competitors: the "other community" sites, which are a lot larger and more successful than all the design sites here combined.
The only reason why some design sites are staying alive, is because the service sectors are filled. Code requests, code support, graphics support, graphics request...you name it...any member service done by the staff is now what powers today's proboards.
I really thank deeply to all those staff of all design sites, including the staff here, for their endless and tireless requests that they have fulfilled...I have done it before and I know it is a damn b**** to do..but dirty work is what must be done many times....>.<
I'd really like to say to new Proboards designers and coder combos who really like to make this place a difference again: GOOD LUCK, you REALLY NEED IT
Either make something out of this world, or be prepared, to gather a few of your staff friends, and slave out in this d*** community in order to game a bit of fame...in...oh..about 6 months time?!?!
Otherwise, if you people really want to make a new design site...listen from a 5 year vet. of Proboards:
UNLESS YOU ARE SURE THAT YOU CAN "WOW" US, WHICH IS UNLIKELY (it took me a damn 3-4 months each with Chris to achieve this effect) YOU ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE BLAMMED FROM THIS INBRED COMMUNITY THAN MAKING YOUR LITTLE PIECE OF FAME FROM THIS SHRINKING PIE.
Keep in mind (I'm only mentioning the old major design sites here...serious good luck for those emerging potentials!)
SSD has just been Cadaver Spammed -YES, NOT PORN- by an over enthusiast Necrophiliac Kid for about 24 hours! It is rare to see such a sight from a former Microsoft-like designer site (the old monopoly)
ZD has been destroyed by its own mistake of moving to IPB, including the departure of Nadim. The community has already being going downhill since Nadim "has a life already".
F5...brief me on what happened. But I did observe that it went dead..
G101...other than Jay's incident...I don't know what the hell happened.
Any refutes, disputes or comments. Hit them back at me. The 5 years of bottled up steam is bursting out from me.
Please note that sarcasm is greatly encouraged.
