abcdow Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Does anyone know what happened to pcgamemods? I try to go there and it's some movie guessing site. Thanks.
JediKnight707 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 *sigh* that means its under construction and he (the owner - Sergio) is doing something to it
JediKnight707 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 It always happens when Sergio is updating.
The Doctor Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I don't see why he can't just do what he did last time after the... incidents.... you know, with the grey screen and the messages. I liked that better. I knew what was going on when he did that. All well, I just hope we don't have another "incident"...
90SK Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 Yeah, it'll be up in a bit. I don't really care either way, though. The whole site is one big husk, lacking a soul. There isn't any human presence on the site anymore. No bulletins, or updates. Just the mods. It's very cold.
lukeskywalker1 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 Yeah, its ... silent... too bad, used to be cool to read some user reviews while I downloaded... well, when people actually did make a proper review/real opinion. It was also cool to see what people liked/disliked about my maps when I put them up
90SK Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 The forum was more like an Internet fight club, but it was a community nonetheless. A highly dysfunctional one, but (personally) had the most fun there I've ever had on the Internet. Of course...my case was a little abnormal...but I got the sense that it was mutual in others. The comments were great, and it's a real shame Sergio got rid of them as well. Arguably, though, posting here is just as good (if not better).
The Doctor Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I didn't start using this site until after the re-model of pcgamemods. I miss the forums. Ma ybe if we ask nicely Sergio will put them back up and have a more strict policy on idiocy.
The Doctor Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 ^ That sucks. Maybe if we tried a petition.... (great, now I sound like a polotician)
90SK Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 ...been there, done that. (the debate was raging right up to the point where Sergio just shut down the site and updated, during which he received massive hate mail. But that's another story)
MdKnightR Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I also miss the comments sections. Even though we now have Taris Uppercity Emporium here at LucasForums, I feel like no one wants to bother to leave comments on my mods anymore. Real bummer.
RedHawke Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I also miss the comments sections. Even though we now have Taris Uppercity Emporium here at LucasForums, I feel like no one wants to bother to leave comments on my mods anymore. Real bummer. Really you shouldn't expect much as far as comments go. I never do, you will always get some positive ones, but then that will be that, the thread goes off of page one, when you do have posts in your mod threads after this point it will usually pertain to bug information and other questions. Hence my "Mod for yourself first" rule.
SITHSLAYER133 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 it will be back soon... i have no wheres to go all my game servers and sites are down for time being im gona be so board
The Doctor Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 ...been there, done that. (the debate was raging right up to the point where Sergio just shut down the site and updated, during which he received massive hate mail. But that's another story) He got more hate mail?!?! Even after last time? Poor guy...
90SK Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I was referring to last time, actually. Sorry for the confusion. I don't think he accepts public e-mail...or any public communication at all anymore. Eh.
MdKnightR Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 Hence my "Mod for yourself first" rule. Oh, I do, but I still like to get opinions of my work so that I can tell if I am doing something right. Just looking at download statistics doesn't tell you much except that people are trying it out.
Prime Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I think in the end comments were more trouble than they were worth. Usually it was just a spamfest.
JediRevan Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 For about one day, you could send an email to him. I sent him one telling him that I will patiently wait until his site is back and that I enjoyed his site. So not all the mail he might get will be hate mail.
RedHawke Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I think in the end comments were more trouble than they were worth. Usually it was just a spamfest. That's what I thought as well, the only serious bug feedback or user support in finding bugs for my mods came from PM's here at LF anyway.
The_Maker Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Hmmm, well this is taking a while =/ At first it went to his "Guess Which Movie.com" website, then a message "Transfering to a new server, may get a little rocky. Sorry for the Inconvinience" and now its just a blank white webpage Either my browser is bugging out on me or he still hasn't finished the transfer *sigh*
The Doctor Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 I wonder what he's doing? It can't take that long ot switch severs, can it?
90SK Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 He said it would get hairy, or something to that effect.
The Doctor Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Now it says I'm Forbidden. Is everyone else getting that, or is it just me?
