I would enjoy it a little bit more if it had a couple things like status and mood, but then again there are somethings I wouldn't.

I guess it would be nice to have statuses and moods, but... then you will get people who have the not necessary statuses like "(user name) is taking a shower."

Naw... I think we should keep those features seperate. GameSpot needs to be GameSpot, and MySpace needs to be MySpace.

A status updater would be sort of fun, but most everything else is fine just how it is. Aside from the glitches of course...

That, I wouldn't know about. I haven't used Myspace in over 2 years.

Not no but hell no. Gamespot is social as it is. You can send a Friend Request to almost anyone. If you want MySpace, type in their URL and press Enter.

If it became more like a social networking site instead of a forum then this place's obnoxious level would surely increase geometrically.

I agree. Gamespot may have started out as a video game forum, but has become more like a social network site these days. The problem is that the people running Gamespot don't see than and want to continue running it as if it were still just a video game forum. That is their choice, but still. . .

I always saw it a video game information and review site with a forum attached to it, oh well shows what i know

Status updates would be ok, i think GB has them and they work quite well though this place shouldn't have all the apps and such.

If GS were like Myspace, I'd leave GS immediately.

Myspace is the perhaps the crappiest social networking site ever.

That would make GS too personal. No. The only thing I would think GS should add is a chatroom. That would be pretty epic.

Im the one who brought up the friendlist feature in the redesign of GS. I wanted it to be implemented in a drop down menu but its only on the main forum page. It wouldnt bother me if there were status under a username.

Yeah that's what I was trying to imply just a couple of simple things wouldn't hurt and I think a chat room would be pretty nice. That way if you don't like it you don't use it and if you like it you do. I don't know why people get all rattled up when myspace is brought up. So much aimless hate.

Not at all. When I check on a person's blog, I don't want to see a 20x20 picture tiled in the background with annoying rap music playing as soon as you enter the page.

The chatroom would be better if it were for level for level 47 and higher. =p

But then you would have like only 3 people in the chatroom because hardly anyone is higher than 47.
