What's new (pussycat)?

I'm using Google Chrome as I type this, and it's fine here.

It was playing up for me earlier on, but it's fine now.

New emoticon! Don't say we're not good to you.

Emoticon or emoticons? I don't remember these guys: :albino: :flower:

Only the Fronk is new! The others came with the forum software, I think.

Yaaay the is here

Also known as 'Shag' in the original WarioWare GBA outing...

Really? I didn't know that, if this forum had more women (who weren't taken) I could ask fancy a ?

no I wouldn't just randomly ask that.

They'll think you're asking them if you fancy a Fronk. Which might sound ruder.

Good good.

Because if you asked randomly, you might get an ugly one.

I'm still getting this when I come on the forum. Haven't seen the header for nigh on two weeks.

EDIT: I now call shenanigans. Now sooner had I posted this, it reappears. Witchcraft!

It must be a browser issue, you using chrome?

I've used Chrome for over four months now, and I've never had a logo issue.

We're trialling a birthday thing at the bottom of the forum. Looks like a hectic period for birthdays coming up!

Ah, I like it. I suppose it'll only work for users who've put their birthday info in their profile?

Assuming Forumotion hasn't gone psychic/full-on investigative, I would assume so.

I had a couple of fellas round earlier asking how many times I've bumped a thread, now that you mention it...

I've just shoved my birthday details into my profile. Now I don't have to keep reminding y'all.

Don't know if this is worth it's own thread, but it looks like the NGamer Forum as we've always known it is no more:

Don't know when this happened, if it's the first stage or if it's the last stage of redevelopment on C&VG, but...aye, it's...a thing.

It's to be expected I suppose - how much traffic was it even getting after this place started up?

Well, CVG has certainly... changed. At least links to old threads still work... for now.

And Jay: basically, Phillips. And people viewing his posts, obviously, but Philps was the only one posting.

EDIT: It's also slow and buggy. No offence to Chris, but I'm glad we got out when we did.

I'd have stayed put, but it was clear that NGamer Forums needed the boot up the arse which was never coming. I can understand why it was never really promoted on the website (keeping chat on there and sorts), but I feel the forum would definitely have been in good shape today had the team bothered to promote it in a positive way in the magazine. Retro Gamer and ONM did a brilliant job of making you and other readers feel like part of a community through vigorous promotion of their online forums through their magazine; we did a brilliant job of making each other feel like part of a community that just so happened to be on a forum called NGamer.

So CVG have fused all their mini forum sections in to one big forum? What a mess it looks.

Yeah, just had a look at it. NGamer forum awards sidling side-by-side with random threads from other magazines' forums. Daft.

I don't think I even want to look.
