While there's nothing inherently wrong with this, the current state of the social media meta is to purposefully stir up drama and ragebait for clicks. Now aside from just impressions and clout, people will have an actual monetary incentive to do so.

It kinda makes the idiom "any publicity is good publicity" true in a sense.

+1 vote for the Dishonored games. If you want a quick showcase of what's possible in this title or the whole series, StealthGamerBR is probably one of the best people to watch.

Also disappointed, but kinda expected this to happen. I wanted to get the Phone (2) but at this amount it's just not worth it. Meanwhile the Phone (1) is also still available, and if the price drops even more I might consider getting it instead.

Oh man, I knew there were a lot but I had no idea.

I remember when Google Wave was demo'ed to a live audience, there were audible ooohs and aaahs from the crowd. It was such a mindblowing idea 14 years ago, shame it never really got off the ground.

I've tried both as a forum admin. I think it's just a matter of preference at this point. phpBB is still sporting that old compact style, which kinda makes it look dated.

I'm interested in spinning one up as well, mostly for having the choice of what to name the domain lmao. Right now I gotta look more into it. Hopefully @dan can get back to us with some numbers.
