Will chatter and discussion come back?

[FlameSpice]

Hey,
It's been incredibly frustrating not being able to post in General Discussion and Chatter. Those were the two forums where I was always active, and now that they're unavailable, it just feels like there's nothing interesting left. Those sections had the best conversations, and without them, everything feels so restricted and dull.


What makes it worse is the reason behind it. Some guy had to take legal action, and now we all have to suffer for it. I can’t help but feel so angry about the whole situation. It’s unfair that one person’s actions led to restrictions for everyone else. I just want to vent, but at the same time, I feel like I can’t do anything about it, which only makes the frustration build up even more.


I miss the casual conversations, the random discussions, and the fun of just talking about whatever came to mind. Now, everything feels way too serious, and it's honestly destroying the vibe of the forums.

It's really not something we have an answer for right this minute, sorry.

We can only hope.

I really enjoyed both boards immensely and were where I had commited the most words (on a flipping phone!) outside of articles.

Guess we will see.
Deep inside my mind I still have a lingering feeling that the mods are trying to pull one big practical joke for April's Fool to all of us. One can only hope.

I wish, I had finally gotten the Jiggly Cult tags just right.

Tale as old as gaming itself, I'm afraid.

Bleem! was a beautiful project with a bright future, then Sony challenged in court, lost, but still got it killed. And it murdered it so bad, it wasn't even allowed a final jpeg as its last message, because it contained a copyrighted character.

In the legendary words of Ross Scott: "There are no good reasons, only legal ones".

I opened that up for the first time last night and my computer crashed in the first two minutes.

....it was *probably* more to do with a movie streaming in the other room, but it felt like a bad omen!
