I've always heard about FoF having a great community, and cool people to work with. This was way wrong, I went there, deciding i might be able to help them out with my stages, maybe some programming, but then i got flamed out for it. Made no sense, but at least i know (hope) that our forums aren't like those guys. There moderators suck! anyway, see a new guy, help them out. make them feel welcome to stay here, and show them that we are the ones with a good community.

Yeah I saw what happened. That sucks dude. I fit right in when I joined. I don't know what happened, but they seem to let people get away with it.

Well, hopefully they'll re-staff, get some better mods there. Still cant believe how they've been known for there good community, we've got a way nicer place, here, its just a bit quiet sometimes. Not near as much people, but hopefully gz2 will get a change to that.

I'm sure it will, just as long as we advertise the hell out of it. Otherwise nobody can download it if nobody knows about it.

You can count on me for youtube videos, we gotta find a efficient way to advertise the hell out of it.

They have good mods; mmsven is the d1ck mod. It's the regular members that often start flame wars.
Also, FOF is sold on Ebay, which is illegal, but still, it gets lots of attention. I've showed some videos of GZ in action to some of my friends and they think it's all fake. The average person might think the same...
I'll post on the AGS forums I go to about GZ and maybe we'll get some followers.

oh on the day its released im going to envoke my admin powers a do a mass email with every email that has signed up to the forums sry but i have no controle over who it sends it to so you will all end up with it too and dont be suprised that after that you cant log in for a while because the server will be over crowded.

He basically said, he is going to 'spam' all the emails that have joined here sending them emails about the new release of GZ.
And becuase of the overload of emailsending the server will be busy and log ins may become temporarily unavailable.

Ahh, ok. I don't think it would overload so much. FOF sent mass emails one time about a new release and the forums were fine.

no its not the mass emails that will do it , its the mass of people coming to download it. 4000 some people all tring to log in isnt going to go to well.

gz guy, another option (assuming we don't want the boards too flooded) is to just send them a direct download link with all the information so they won't even have to come here if they don't want to. they'll probably come here anyway, but it's a thought.

To be honest i dont think everyone will get the email anyway. most probably just used fake ones to get to the downloads.
Its a shame. they will miss you hardcore.
By the way GZ Guy are you going to wipe the download section of all the old gz clean? once the release comes that is.

If you ask me this place needs is a regular website as a front end to this one. Something a la blog style like xboxscene.com where you can post updates and things in the style of blogger posts. Then people can come to the forums for help and guidance and such.... just a suggestion i guess.

Yes, i hear ya insanehardhead. Lol fricken idiots of freetar forums. I think me and you came over here and started talking on AIM about that same time. Also the only nice people in FoF are the ones who post good replies to songs instead of putting them down.Which are not many lol. These forums are my HOME! I will contribute as much as i can to this site.

Well, can't we just create an new dowload section fo gz2 stuff? and if we end up with an other title for the game (example Guitar Star), should we still use this foruml then? maybe move it, or make a parallell forum?
I think we should let the old (current) download section live a sort life after the gz2 release, but put a sticky topic there for gz2...

That is going to be difficult to think of how we are going to do that. I think our best hope is to make a new forum.
