Amazing way to kick it off. Well done, sir.

EWolfmanD · 09-30-2008, 10:28 PM

Congrats on the launch.

I've been browsing through various threads on the different sites all day trying to find out what the hell was going on, so I'm also glad to not have to worry about that anymore. Hopefully everyone that had spread out to a few sites will concentrate most of their posts here so I don't have to look around too much to find all my favorite posters. At the least, I'll be happy if those wacky handheld guys come over.

Plus now everything can go back to being about the games and all the cool people around here rather than the constant drama. Yay.

Edit: Oh no, what are were going to do without the constant discussion about "fitbabits"? Being corrected after calling JAYoung "Jay Oung" just won't feel the same.

Kagger · 09-30-2008, 10:28 PM

I am excited. Can't wait to see where this goes!

Haemorrhage · 09-30-2008, 10:29 PM

Congrats guys. You answered my wishes.

An awesome new community forum where everyone can gather again. It is great to see you also networking with the other great community sites as well.

Bingley Joe · 09-30-2008, 10:29 PM

Great introduction, Fox, and congrats to everyone involved in this!! Can't wait to see where this all goes from here..

Admitting the problem is the first step!
In-Game Chat will be glad to help you on your road to recovery!

Huzzah!!

pomeroy · 09-30-2008, 10:31 PM

I was wondering when this would be up.

fitbabits · 09-30-2008, 10:31 PM

BTW, people need to thank Mike for the awesome banner up-top!

Alkanos · 09-30-2008, 10:32 PM

Very nice! Hopefully I'll post more over here than I did back at EvAv. I lurk way too much...

OUX · 09-30-2008, 10:35 PM

Well, this is very cool. I was worried that my favorite online community was losing appendages like an octopus in a wheat thresher. Good luck with the launch.

I had a feeling it had to be something that severe to inspire yesterday's mass exodus. I'll never point my browser to Evil Avatar again. Sorry to begin with something so negative.

I must say, I sense the beginnings of something fantastic here, something I feel that in the future, I'll be proud to say I was in on day one.

Thanks for starting this, guys!

Banacek · 09-30-2008, 10:40 PM

Someone review Silent Hill: Homecoming already.

What, I'm supposed to say hi?

Is Spigot here? I love his weekly columns. I hope he makes the move so I don't have to go back.

Hmm... This is the last paragraph:

Thank you for making it to the bottom of our introduction to Colony of Gamers. We are excited about this venture and hope all of you will join us in the future.

What's so telling about that?

Whunpo · 09-30-2008, 10:42 PM

I am so fucking glad this happened. It's exactly what I've been hoping for. Thank you guys!

Seconded! We need to get Spigot over here ASAP, I love his obscure games threads.

Ten19 · 09-30-2008, 10:45 PM

A fantastic start! Now everyone's home where they belong. I look forward to fully participating here as well as helping build useful elements of the community at Immortal Machines.

Xerxes · 09-30-2008, 10:45 PM

Awww... So many folks to bring over to the greener grass, so little time.

mister slim · 09-30-2008, 10:45 PM

Nice work guys. I'm sure I'll be spending a fair amount of time here.

I do have a question though: What's the rationale behind keeping all the sites separate? It seems like the functions of the different forums could be threaded together pretty well to make it easier for users to move back and forth from discussion, reviews, and co-oping.

Edit: Yeah, someone kidnap Spigot.

Hmm, that looks like a hint that the trouble over at EvAv was partially due to lack of financial transparency and maybe misuse of funds.

torrefaction · 09-30-2008, 10:46 PM

Glad to see you guys all move one at once. I guess I'll be sticking around these parts...

So I gotta ask...where's the P&R forums?
