    Back in the day


    I remember when these forums were buzzing with litterally hundereds of gamers and the place was a hive of activity.

    This is so pathetic how badly they have fallen away especially if you compare it to something like the PS4 forums where they seem to put a lot of effort into making them somewhere worth visiting.

    Seriously what happened? How can the number One console have such pitiful badly run forums? I just dont understand it.

    Where is EVERYONE?

    Just look at the amount of posts in 7 days lol its so sad

    :)

    Try finding another forum, this place is basically what we make it, if you have suggestions on how to make it a better pale please suggest, if you have fifa we have a forum league that you can join, as the current one is nearing an end.

    Suggestions are always good

  6. I think the forums, and mainly because it has so much content, makes finding stuff really difficult.

    Be much better to have a side menu on the left that you could expand sections of the site. I feel it's all too hidden away at the moment. I don't want to hover my mouse (poop, I clicked wait anoother 7 seconds) just to see whats all available. Even a
    simple filter list where as I start typing the name of a game the list is filtered down. I hate having to click "XBox Forums > XBox 360 games > P-S" then manually going through god knows how many pages to find "Silent Hill Homecoming" as an example.

    Really don't know what the forum update actually brought us as it was nothing of benefit I could see.

    And don't say that cost money MS are rolling in it. If Bill Gates wants to save Elephants thats great but give some IT guys a job and have these forums managed and developed properly.



    p.s. allsoftware forums are rubbish that I have used.

  9. @Genchy You asking me that?

    If you are, I just said what I thought was wrong, not that I contributed much "back in the day" and this is mainly because, as I said above, it's so difficult to find anything, do anything on these forums.

  14. Yup, pretty much what everyone else has said. It is what you make them. Staying logged out just makes them more empty. Stick around Back in the day :)

  15. Thanks folks. The thing is with very little, or no, external advertising these forums are clean and easy to look at just not easy to find stuff. I guess thats why a lot of the guys here stay logged in as helping others gives a sense of community that is
    missing from so much of todays 160 characters based discussions.
