NA has become one of my least favorite forums on the web. It's been reduced to a circle jerk showroom amongst the collectors with the largest bank accounts and the sheep that jerk them off every time they post another copy of some super rare VGA-graded game.

"Oh man, so-and-so, your collection is so teh awesomeness!!! I hope that I can someday get something better than my current fast food job and buy the sooper cool stuff that you have!  I love you. I want to make out with you and roll around naked with your VGA 90+ Mega Man 1-6 collection!  Did I mention that I love you?"

Also, it's way too "buddy buddy". I.e. the mods and admins are too close with certain members, which means that some folks have indemnity no matter what stupid-ass shit they say or how they treat others, while people like Kelly get shit on just because, well, because they can. Kelly explained the reason and although I'm not privy to both sides of the story, it seems pretty clear that he got dicked.


Arseen and I as the first mod/admins. That's gonna be a dangerous combo :P

I'm disappointed that you chose to keep the name "nintendoagesucks" though, to be honest :)  I think it would be better to make a forum with a strong, positive identity, not something that refers to any other place.

I have been a member of NintendoAge for a while now, and I'm sure people have had their problems there, but I personally have had a very good, positive experience there.  I don't pay attention to the 'collection / show-off' thread very much, so I don't really see that.  I have gotten some amazing deals and made some great friends over there.  I have had people go out of there way to help me out, without really knowing me, and even when I first started over there.  I have never once posted pictures of my entire collection there, and I don't feel like I'm treated differently.

I don't know the details of what happened here and I'm not even trying to argue with that - I just wanted to point out that not ALL of them are bad :)

I hope you'll consider changing the name at some point, because I really think it would be a good thing to do long-term.  After time goes by and the frustration and anger at whatever happened subsides, I would imagine most people would find it silly to hang on to any kind of "xxxxxsucks" name. 

Anyway, I'm not here to cause an argument or defend what happened (I don't know the details), but I just wanted to share some thoughts on it.  I definitely respect the desire to make a new forum and break away from certain things, but I was hoping it could be done peacefully, hehe :)
