View Full Version : If Modacity were to die today....

After seeing Freelancer's thread and reading a comment about this site being a dying one, this gave me a thread idea: What would you do if Modacity were to die today?

I think I would just go back to GBX. Quite frankly I don't really post all that much anyway so I'll just go back to visiting GBX a bit more and post there. Used to visit a football forum but that got ruined by the owners and chased all of us out of the site. :(

I've taken mostly to lurking here, so the site's less of a part of my routine than it used to be. I'm posting more elsewhere anyway since I've sold my soul to Blizzard. vOv

yeah i wouldnt have anywhere to go tbqh. the only other forum ive ever really been a big part of is halomaps, and im not too keen on going back to that since im not doing any halo ce stuff anymore. i might eventually find a different forum, but i have no idea what for. the only other place id fit in is a board for some game like battlefield or something, but the users there... :gonk:

id probably just roam youtube and spout off on stupid comments more than i already do. i might also move that practice to facebook, seeing as the majority of the people i have on there make me do this :ugh: on a regular basis.

E: oh, and i would also plot revenge against people

I started at Halomods. I'd go back. The problem? Korn won't allow the kind of shit we have here to happen over there :/ So, all the people I know here probably won't go over there.

tl;dr: Modacity won't die :smugsome:

I think I ruined my reputation too badly with the myextralife forums and I'm too scared to go back.

I'll probably go back to GBX, since it's really the only other forum I really recognize/can get comfortable with the atmosphere.

Lol you think the site is still alive? The most creative thing here is a critique thread and I've barely seen anything completed in it. Site died a long time ago. Only thing that could bring it back would be a new SDK that accommodated the latest versions of software for exporting. You could unban everyone and only enforce moderation on illegal shit and you wouldn't notice a difference in activity here (two people yelling at each other on the internet doesn't count as activity).

Same thing was said about modacity.

If you keep at it, it will soon become a norm to post. =)

So what we're getting at is that we should all leave Modacity voluntarily to ease the pain?

rossmum

i wouldn't really be affected. sorry, but in my eyes at least, modacity died sometime in 2008. the only thing that really keeps me here at all is the shooters' thread i started (to make sure you goddamn idiots haven't gone and ruined any milsurp) and occasional politics threads, just so i can see how many of you have horrible beliefs. i have most of the people here i give a shit about as friends on steam or facebook, so if the site went down, the only thing i'd be left with is some fond memories and one less site to piss my time away on.

I'd probably just stop going to forums. I used to be on a lot of them, but this is the only one I really go to anymore and I'm not that interested in starting up again with another community.

And the Horde.

(If my computer didn't blow chunks I might look into SC2.)

Also, I really do need to start playing some more Jetty with Pooks and Sever. Teekup, you'd better be back in that game and triple-fistokicking me mid-ADBS by the time I decide to do so. :v:

True, but I feel out of place since a lot of posters there are so helpful and nice about their critique. Here, I walked in and people started shooting at me. I had to buy a pistol and learn how to use it before walking back into this place again.

What If Halomaps Shut Down
Imagine, them all coming here :ohdear::ohdear:

Considering that I spend arond 60% of my internet browsing on Modacity alone, I'd probably drop dead unwillingly.

It would be the only way to breathe life back into this site. And the communities productivity would skyrocket. IQ and total number of intact brain cells however, would not. But Halomaps isn't so bad.

The only real modacity is irc.gamesurge.net #modacity.

NeoGAF and Polycount. This forum would need a new deriction and a reason for people to join and discuss things for me to want to post here again. All there is now is bickering over things like freelancer and occasional gamenights?
