You do realize for ten bucks Shotty can come back.
Do you really think that's the major flaw of your system? I assumed you were joking as much as I was.

Would you be able to make boatloads of money monetizing it today? Probably not. But think about how basic what we have is: a message board, the onsite chat & wiki. There's a ton of room to improve:
- Better website(moving wiki content there, building face-to-face app(kind of like Fibbage), building realtime game app with simple graphics)
- Improving what we currently have: streamlining the queues, modernizing the forum gameplay, better mobile optimization

This isn't me trying to persuade anyone to buy it(I'm here because it's fun to build stuff, don't care about $), but more to get people excited about the things we can do and can build if we just get excited about and focus on it.
id like to help but i don't know how without being...pesky
Help me get people excited enough to participate in discussing this stuff. That's currently the greatest barrier to Having Great Things.

I'd be willing to record myself reading my own posts in a WWE promo style if mith thought he could make money off it.
Join me on my quest to play every NES game! Some of them are awful.

Kuribo's read is foolproof: one night he was high on NyQuil, and he's ancestors reveiled Aureal's alignment to him. - Dessew
