I'm done
 

Fuck this place. I'm done. D3V, fuck you. Learn to drop things.

Honestly, don't blame you. Enjoy your life.

Such a shame... one of the only decent members leaving. I don't really see much reason to stay either. I mean, I visit like everyday but none of the threads interest me now; I read 'em all but I just can't find why I should post in pointless threads.

However, good luck in life MJ. The future is very bright for you. Stop by once in a while.

Be safe and take care of yourself.

Instead of having a name change you should have just registered a new name, also I was just kidding with you, if you would give us insight as to what the deal is, then there shouldn't be any problem.

Later, man. Best wishes.

K_A is gone, now MJ, TR is talking about leaving... fuck.

I'm taking a Hiatus once I hit 10k posts.

Gah. :( I wish it wasn't so.

I wish you the best of luck, man.

That's too bad. If you, KA, and thanatos are leaving, I'll prolly hit the road too.

I was already thinking about leaving. Oh well. Life goes on.

That's a shame. While I don't come very often, or even read MJ's post very often, it still sucks. He's been around a long time, and I did enjoy his posts in the past.

I don't know why people don't just randomly visit like I do anyway? Nothing serious, you don't get caught up in juvenile bullshit, and all is good for a little enjoyment here and there.

I guess i'm out as well, I was going to leave at 10k but if everyone leaves before then sionara.

You're the main reason why he left.

And thus the old members leave, and the idiotic fuckwads join and cause the forum to disintergrate into a million threads about Gods Emails. Well, If your all going to leave, Then I wish you the best of luck in whatever it is you do with your life.

And I will be going here in roughly four days.

Yeah, D3v ran off MJ and K_A.. 2 very good members.

GravitonSurge as well. Problem solved.

Hahahaha! Excellent Chruser, Excellent.

hay guyz wut iz goin on in dis thread

Sup.

Refer to http://zelaron.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45949.

I too have been contemplating leaving as well.

Dammit. You guys were the reason I joined this place. Now everyone is bailing. What the fuck?

Just losing it's appeal. A few months ago it came back when we were trying to be innovative and revive activity and bring back old members. It worked for a short time, but it's starting to lose its luster.

D3v's gone, I'm no longer planning on leaving.

I wish MJ would come back.

If you could somehow inform MJ of d3vs ban then he might consider coming back.

Zelaron used to serve a pragmatic purpose as a gaming forum, but we have tried to cover too much ground in the past three years.

Right now, we're stuck with a multitude of different categories that interest 2-3 members each. This fragments the "spirit of community" and instils an intuitive conclusion amongst members that the forum is dying because you only choose to visit limited parts of Zelaron. In reality, the sum of parts shows that Zelaron has a fairly high level of activity.

So the question is, how should the community be united?

In theory, the process is fairly simple: Focus on specific areas, e.g. gaming, or even particular role-playing games. Zelaron was originally a Diablo 2 forum, which has been the foundation for our activity in the past six years. The automotive, art, anime, debate, entertainment and flame forums may have to go, although of course, exceptions can be made. There are already too many general conversation forums on the Internet; being another one doesn't help us.

Members with specific knowledge about particular areas on Zelaron could be granted moderator positions as motivation for posting useful information and keeping their forums in order. BlueCube for the RPGMaker forums is an archetypical example of this, and -Spector-'s guides have been a helpful step toward increasing the activity of the Diablo 2 forums.

Once the forum upgrade will take place, it will be easier to rearrange things. The portal will cover only specific areas (humorous computer and video game reviews and news? Raziel has expressed interest in writing reviews for Zelaron), rather than attempting to encompass the entire spectrum of potential areas of interest. We'll also advertise the community on Something Awful and other relevant sites once things have gotten up to speed.

Stay around, and we'll make Zelaron unique and awesome again!

I think keeping Debate and the Flame forum would be in our best interest. The other sub-forums could go. The History forum is practically dead and I don't tend to have much of a chance to fish around for history-related news, sadly, especially now that I'm trying to find a place of my own and setting up plans to move to So Cal next year.

I miss you.

I miss him too. :(

I hate jumping on any kind of emo train, but same here.

He was good people.

lol. THat's pretty interesting.

Dunno how many of you are into SimRPG's played on forums but I understand it's a pretty popular thing. You could always try that. If that fails you could start a game modding thread here. I have been modding games since 98. Specifically Diablo, D2, Starcraft, Mount&Blade, Warcraft, Warcraft 2, Dune, Dune 2, Emperor Battle for Dune, Dune Windows 95 version, Neverwinter Nights, F.E.A.R, The Sims, The Sims 2, and various Command and Conquer games.

This only makes me miss him more. :(

This thread or my outrageously nerdy response to Chruser? Either way I will miss his big brain. I always read his posts simply because they were so well put together. Someone should try to get mj back dammit.

I don't think he wants to come back. I'll try talking to him some time, but I don't think he'll want to chat.

Chruser said that MJ most likely wont be coming back anytime soon, due to IRL stuff.

He's a busy man anyways.
