I remember when YLYL threads were ruined by people saying they didn't laugh and the OP was awful instead of nobody posting.

Says October 9th at the top of my screen. Dont know where you are getting this few hours figure from.

Pirate700

Maybe try reading, I don't know...the next sentence in the banner?

Maybe try reading the actual link?

Starting at 5pm PDT on Monday, October 7, you will be unable to send PMs, write blogs, create lists, follow other members or games, post reviews, or rate games. You will still be able to post in the forums, but anything posted there after this time will be lost (don't think this is a free pass though, 'cause we'll still be enforcing the rules!).

Will be interesting to see all the changes come into play, which there was some notes on the changes.  I can't sit through the videos without being interrupted by more important things. :P

I remember when this forum was actually active.

Pirate700

These were good times indeed. You could hardly keep up with discussions, topics and funny shit.

Back when a thread would be buried into the second page within, like, a couple minutes. Now it's a ghost town. I wonder if all the almost unanimously hated changes will bring posters back...

I swear I was gonna say this but just said fvck it let them do whatever they want :lol:

The trick is to just go back after clicking submit. It goes through without loading all the way. I assume everyone has figured this out.

What do you mean I won't be able to post new content? Cutting over from an older website to a newer one is always a tricksy business, especially when you're dealing with one the size of GameSpot. We have millions of members, and each member can--and does--create and post content. In order for us to make our transition, we must lock these functions down temporarily in order to bring all this great content into the new site. Starting at 5pm PDT on Monday, October 7, you will be unable to send PMs, write blogs, create lists, follow other members or games, post reviews, or rate games. You will still be able to post in the forums, but anything posted there after this time will be lost (don't think this is a free pass though, 'cause we'll still be enforcing the rules!). This only applies to the old (this) site--once the cutover has been made, services will be restored. Starting at 5pm PDT on Tuesday, October 8, new users will be unable to register on the site until the transition is complete. Thanks for your patience!

The headline is correct about the date. Just misleading about what happens today with the forum.

Oct/9th? Uh it's the 8th tomorrow. Even on other parts of the world it will not be the tenth, and GS is an american company. Seems the screw ups with the time system will still be at GS.

Except that's not what this is, or relates to the definition, in almost everyway.
