Is this what a dying forum looks like?

[SlowwHand]

Ditto, and still.

MOBIUS, by "our", are you talking about you and the mouse in your pocket?
You ramble on constantly about how much better Counterglow is than Poly. You always ramble, but I mean specifically.

[MOBIUS]

Specific rambling! That's why you're one of my favourite posters, Slowwie!

[Asher]

Some of us weren't childish enough to think it was an "either/or" decision. I never left Poly and in fact posted at both sites for months.

I posted at both sites til I was IP banned for being a better Ben Kenobi than Ben Kenobi himself.

[Dinner]

Oh please, the number of threads at Poly re WPC has been obsessive. Spurned lover reaction.


My dismay is with Poly and where it is now. This past weekend was downright shameful. If it weren't for the flood of DL's there would have been no traffic at all.

Most of them weren't DLs but were posters from another forum who's server was down.

I was the best Ben Kenobi.

Specific subject, dickhead.

Meh. End result was the same. Short lived accounts with a bunch of spam threads deleted.

[Dinner]

No threads were deleted and most of them will no doubt be back though not as regulars.

despite Wezil's stats getting comprehensively pwned by Ming.

So what? I find it amusing though that over here traffic is so important to Poly posters that you continuously discuss it. Got something to be scared about?

You're all like a bunch of rats who jumped ship and realised that the other ship is actually sinking faster than the one they left. Kindly have the courage of your convictions and **** off.

Hmm..... I post here 3 times in a week compared to probably 100 over at WPC, and you say that's jumping ship back? Good one mate, go back to CG where you're so loved.

Get over it. It's you people who come here to talk about it.

You come here to either insult or bring up WPC.

Continuously discuss it? What are you smoking
It comes up every once in awhile, but I guess you would think so since you only post in a few threads in the OTF

I think anybody with a brain can see that traffic is WAY down from the glory days. But I also think that anybody with a brain can see that WPC is probably not getting the traffic some thought it might get

I think the drop in traffic can be attributed to two things:
1. In between releases
2. Apathy to the site (for whatever reason)

As to the amount for each group who knows. All Civ sites have this, and anybody with a brain can see that.

As for WPC, the site's not even a year old. It's a bit early to discuss traffic don't you think? As for expectation and realisation, well let's not go there as it'll potentially just become a "he says" and "she says" thing.

[Dinner]

Sorry Dale but it is just about ALWAYS a pandaphile who starts these discussions. Today it was Wezil, yesterday it was Sloww, before that Lancer. You can't have your guys coming over here starting these threads and then try to blame us for them.

Your business plan is to BUILD on initial traffic over time as the games become more stale?
