That place is starting to get suckier by the week.

You do know that advertising this forum on Chartz is against its rules. Best you can do is mention it in your signature. BananaKing does that, I believe.

Quote from: DerNebel on Nov 22, 2015, 07:16 PMAh I see she unperm'd herself again, it's such a weird back and forth with her.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind having her and tamron join here, not sure if this community would entertain her though, even if I think that she might have more of a chance of getting people to discuss a game they've played instead of everything going back to a console war, which she recently complained about on the chertz. We're just lacking a bit of manpower here, not too much mind you, but I think like 5 to maybe 10 more actually active members could really help liven the place up without turning it into a place that would actually require active moderations to take place, cause I actually really appreciate the fact that this forum works without that.

i been a head mod, but since i dont really have time, i let somebody else be head mod. and in all this time i didnt really need to do shame.

there were a few issues here and there. but really, this site is great.

i hope it grows, but not to reach VGC numbers were trolling is rampant.

I starting fully agreeing with her to start to laugh after the middles of the text... c'mon how can you say to not discuss sales shipments in a sales focused website? Talk about the game or anything else is a secondary topic in Chertz... it is supposed to have the main topic on sales and not the games.
That is what differentiates Chertz from the others gaming sites... so she lost the focus from the mid to end of the text and I ended disagreeing with her.

PS. Fanboy is a good word... I started this movement in Chertz... I like to be called a fanboy and I have proud to love some game to that degree... that part is the best part of the text... I don't know why people get angry when he is called fanboy... it is a beautiful way to call somebody.

XCX is at 56 already on Amazon France best sellers 2015?
If it wasn't sold out it could have been in the top 20 by the end of the week...

Now if only they "accidently" put ported copies of Xenosaga.

Quote from: DerNebel on Nov 22, 2015, 06:59 PM(totally off topic but did anyone see that tachikoma perm'd herself again, it's like that's happening every other month now).

I just want to clarify a few things here.

A few months back she walked away from VGC because she was dealing with some family issues, specifically her mother passed away so she didn't want to deal with VGC as well as the loss.

Staff kept her on board and after a few weeks she came back, but was never really happy about things and as time went on she just grew more and more distant until she decided that she wasn't ever going back, and wrote a long rant hoping the mods would take the hint and de-mod her, they didn't, so she said she would just perma-ban herself and be done with it, I asked her to perma-ban my own account too since I have little to no real reason to be there, and she did shortly before banning herself.

Other staff de-modded and un-banned her by the looks of it, likely in an attempt to "keep her around", it will not do them any good, what so ever, she is 100% done with VGC and won't be going back regardless of the status of her account.

As for her joining here, or me sticking around too, that's highly unlikely. I mean nothing bad by that of course, just seriously doubt it will happen.

Interesting, I knew about the stuff with her family, not that she was done with the site. I can relate with that though, I'm just happy that the mods agreed to my permaban request, I don't need to be tempted to go back there.

But yeah I also have the feeling that the chertz are somewhat desperately trying to keep tachikoma around, kinda pointless imo if she's just not feeling the forum anymore, can't force that stuff.

And I can understand if you don't want to join this place either, just know that you guys are welcome here of course (I'll just take the freedom of speaking for everyone here, lol).

Hello.
I like Tachi (even when she bans me) and I never had anything to complain about her... of course we have difference way of thinking but it is fine and it is what move discussions... I know I'm a bit silly most of times because I like fun instead to talk all serious.

Anyway I'm replying more about this part of the mod team trying to hold her on VGC... well I'm all about the freedom of people do anything they wants even left a forum if she wants... so I extreme disagree with any try of force somebody to stay in place he/she don't want anymore.
Sometimes it is better to take a break and maybe in some months she can back to be happy posting on VGC or she can even find a new place.

In any case I wish good luck for any decision Tachi does.

Battlefront did pretty good in UK.

- 4th biggest launch of any game in 2015
- the fastest selling non-sequel PS4 title ever
- selling more at launch on Sony's format than another online-only title, 'Destiny'

59% - PS4
39% - Xbox One
2% PC

Seems like Xbox One is have a lot of bundles with 1 or 2 free games in UK and that helped it to have a lot of games in the TOP40.
Fallout 4 dropped a lot (80%)
Tomb Raider is kinda of showing some legz (-37% only).
AC and FIFA rising... good.

Edit - Actually Tomb Raider did 42k first week in UK.

Week: 1 42K
Week 2: 26K (-37%)

Yeap the drop was small but the sales are yet Bomb Raider.
