Been saying destroy that homepage forever now. But that’s illunatics heart and soul so he’ll say no
Fuck his heart and soul.
Give the people what they want. Homepage is wack. No one manages the shit and updates current information. It looks extremely tacky because it isn't updated. And I'm sure it definitely slows the site down.
zunto is wrong, homepage is no more soon.

ive hardly ever gone to the homepage and i doubt i ever will. the forum is where the excitement is... Its how ive known the site and its how i will forever know the site. Although i did at one stage try to draw a badass homepage. It was only an image but it would have been badass graff if i had enough inspiration to continue with what i was doing.
Lack of communication and people not wanting what i wanted stopped me from caring.
same but no excitement is happening on the forums either.Quote:

But I agree, no use in having something that isn't current. If "new" people are coming here, and go to the homepage first, they might not go any further if they think it's abandoned.
I just tried to go to the homepage and it redirected to the forum immediately, maybe it's already gone.
Would be interesting to see the google analytics of the homepage, if it was set-up.
it uses more than html/css.Quote:

when you have a bunch of plugins on wordpress, slows shit down to.
Ah it was through wordpress. None the less it wasn't enough content that is should have been so slow, I'm guessing it was still wrong. And tbh everything is html or a variation of it.
only the client side, the server side of it will slow shit down, content don't really matter, depends on whats on the back end and your host my dude, doesn't help that RB has a lot of bots hitting it to. I always tell people only use the plugins you need, and don't install a gang of shit that you don't even need lol.Quote:

Seems to be running smoother now than it was before so good shit.

never been a fan of the home page it would of been different if it showed site statistics there and information about the battlers here.
Exactly what I suggested when it was a concept going around. Then GOW got involved and there is that. Homepage was trash.Quote:

Admins killed this site.
They are responsible for the state it's in.
Numerous MODS requested assistance when the site was active - where were they?
NO WHERE TO BE SEEN OR FOUND.
Fuck them.
we don't need to be baby sitted 24/7 either

I just want to re do the whole statistics thing so its useful, only dudes you see up there are folks that aint been active in many years.
I don’t understand why records are a big deal tho?
a lot of folks don't even know how those records happen lol.Quote:
