I will NOT give up.

Feedback and suggestions about the site.

I will NOT give up.

Postby Predatory Ameoba on Fri Jul 20, 2012 12:34 pm

I have been noticing less and less activity on the forums. In fact, I have a few times considered giving up on them as dead. But then I always think of the time I have put into them, and decided, “No! I will go back!” Because of this I have a pledge to make:

I will not give up on the site. Even if there is no activity, I will continue to stubbornly post my new thoughts, ideas, and strategies onto here.

I really hope the site doesnt die.

Agreed. I too will stay with this site, no matter how close to dying it might be.

We need to get like a site necromancer here.

Ah, you guys :). I was just thinking, poor old TF2S is so utterly and completely out of date by now, I wonder what's going on in the forums...

<3

If this site were a startup, it would have gone out of business long ago. As it stands, it costs me about $10/year to run for the domain name, so I have no real incentive to shut it down. Unfortunately, my life has only seemed to get more busy every month, and both it and myself are so far behind the TF2 community that there's little incentive to bother updating anything.

Lesson learned: if you can garner an awesome community (you guys), trust them and open up the site content as a wiki-like. Have a Stack Overflow crowdsourced self-moderating team of editors. Then it doesn't even matter what happens to the owner: the heart will go on.

WordPress is not that kind of system. Bygones are bygones, but TF2Strategy will stand strong. As an emblem. Thank you, one and all.

Can't you just recruit more users as admins? Or does Wordpress restrict that, because I'll be glad to be able to contribute to the site without having to write it in the forums and waiting for someone to upload it.

It's been so long since I've browsed the main site, and there's so many pages not found. It's kinda sad, really. Feels like the site is really starting to die.

I'm an admin, and if Pie's back. I'm back! Send me your stuff, and I'll upload it. Promise it'll be fast! And if you want adminship, ask Adam about it.

The great Pie has spoken, and my resolve to not give up is even greater.

I'm here, are we literally the only ones? :(

Appears Test has left us too. It's a sad day.

I'm not leaving yet, just inactive.

Unfortunately, a combination of laziness and me discovering Dota 2 has made me not very productive.

True that. The weird RPG/Tower defense/RTS mechanics are a PAIn to learn.

Yep, especially if you never play any strategy games, like me.
