| In an easy way to gather 1000's of Gleemax users, I see that the old 'board' forums at WoTC have all become gleemax.
Â
So, I'm a gleemax user ... apart from the taste in my mouth it's no different. | |

Have you looked at the address bar? Completely missed that. On the bright side, I almost never bother to visit the WotC forums, so still no gleemax for me

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror. | |

| Posted By mege on 08/08/2007 11:02 AM Why the Gleemax negativity?
For me, it partly a cynicism about many 'new' internet ideas, that are rehashs of the old. And often, though it might not be the case here, but often there is more focus on the whizz bang technology not the social side despite the press.
I'll wait and see, but I doubt there will be anything gleemax does that couldnt already be done.
More so if the money that went to advertising and devopling Gleemax could of gone elsewhere. (like cheaper product )
Like, I'm now a gleemax user, because I logged on to the forums I used to visit as a board user, so I'll probably be counted stats wise as a gleemax user when it comes to advertising like '1,000,000 users in the first few months'
So anytime I feel like I 'm getting 'new' stuff forced on me, I'm gonna be more resistent to it unless it has a value.

And I'm tired of aving to log onto the forum again and again and again 'casue gleemax cant remember logons. :p | |

If I was a frequent visitor on the Wizards boards, I wouldn't be too happy about that either.

| I am REALLY HATING Gleemax today. The signing in each visit is a livable hazard but I hate getting dropped before I finish my buisness. Today I can't even seem to get Wizard's Forum running at all much less with me logged in.

| The red text on forums today was eye bleeding bad. I'm going to wait a while before trying again.

Considering that the boards don't seem to be working, I think you will be waiting a while
