First Post
Alright, Let’s test some of the waters with a Mission Statement of sorts.
Why do I need a Mission Statement? I don’t. There’s only a committee of one here. But it may give you an idea of what I plan for this to become. This is a place where you and I can talk about things that other sites don’t talk about, where I can rant without being banned, and (most importantly) chat about aspects of the games, movies, etc. without necessarily spoiling it for everyone.
Sure there will be spoilers here and there, but I will try to maintain discussion threads for general and vague review, rather than always citing specific instances. I don’t believe I need to beat the game in 4 days in order to be able to talk about it on the internet and not have the ending ruined or twist revealed.
I believe we can talk about Bioshock’s wonderful art design and somewhat bland levels without talking about the ending.
What kind of content would people like to read about or talk about? Any opinions on whether I should try to keep this specific to gaming, or spread out to other subjects?
Also, anyone interested in also being a poster/contributor? You get fame (= a couple people may see it) and fortune (= $0 per hour).
First time commenter, long time reader…
I think you should stick with what you know, i.e. Video Games. Commenting on subjects that you are less versed in (such as skiing or driving) will likely cause accidents, lawsuits, and other misfortunes.
Ted wrote the last comment…but I agreed…
Well, Ted should log in as his own account. That way, if I want to upgrade him to a status to leave his own posts, it’ll be easy :)
