Dosraider, I know the ads all over the page are terrible, but to be fair, the front page looks much better than it did ten days ago Slightly cleaner, within our constraints.

As said: I had a bad day, loaded the site whilst being by someone else, and thought by myself:
*WTF ...??? Is that how an ol'games site is supposed to look...????*

Ah well, nevermind me.

That's a pity, you're missing out on some fun content in regard to AB's feed.

Anyway as always, these things are what you make of them. If you follow a bunch of vapid teens then yes, you're going to end up reading a bunch of wasted of 0's and 1's. However, if you follow things you are particularly interested in and not just your mates, you basically end up with an RSS feed on steroids, and it's pretty cool.

Besides, any website that has helped topple governments and provided real-time news for people with limited and/or censored internet access is fine with me

Twitter is a soul eating beast...but it let's me attack followers with myself or in other words it lets people who like my Youtube Lps catch them as they come out.

... Things we would not be missing out if you were posting it on the main page or the forums instead. You're not really creating new content at all, you are simply splitting it in pieces.

Ever heard of about a hundred of common sayings like "if you run after several rabbits at once you end up catching nothing at all?". If you use alternative feeds for original content you don't share on the main site (the forum is part of the main site) then you end up doing just that.
