Yes, I agree, for super8news is doing great job, like Dennis from CloverfieldClues did once.

Hehe, have you checked out the imdb-forums? There you need a group of Cloverfield monsters actually, lol. (Don't wanna hurt imdb people, I was also ones, before I found unfiction, in the old good Cloverfield times, hehe).

Apples and sour oranges

Yea we mess around a lot over there but the people are nice and enjoy a good joke, unlike the usually rude people on this site.

Also I haven't seen anyone come to this site claiming WE solved that first "*pompous attitude*" every chance they get.


Its a real community board.

No need to brew discontent. Let's just focus on the game. I think with some humility we can all agree that no one is perfect. Also, once the game gets truly rolling we will all forget about being first... and instead actually enjoy the damn thing.

normally i would agree 100% chainsaw...... but:

this "discontent" and the post of super8poster shows a major problem of this arg/viral

its community - compared to similar arg/viral's there is a lack of "hierarchy" in the way of content is spreading

compared to for eg cloverfield (wich was also adressing only a specific social group via its game strings) we loose by this lack a lot of the momentum each event in this arg is creating

when i am running a "real community" driven site -like super8poster is stating- the showrunner of this "real community" driven site, should channel and direct the content and informations its own "real community" is creating

so there is no potential for gaps in informations, that sets the community on wrong tracks - which creates space for trouters that agitate the serious players - that makes the game progress slow and forces the pr/social-agency to take down the speed of the project in the given overall timewindow until 14-21 days prior launch in cinemas


so i can agree this time only in one point chainsaw......


no one is perfect Wink

[OFF TOPIC]

Gramma;

As I stated previously, I started at Super8news, and either I am the biggest dumbbell around (and I probably am regardless), or just didn't notice it, but it seems to me like only recently did they come up with a forum (patterned eerily like Unficition's). Prior to that the admin had set up Headings where he/she would state the latest news, and others would comment under those.
But it made it unwieldy to find a previous Heading you wanted to post under, and when breaking news came from a poster, it was placed in whatever heading was being talked about at the time.
I guess things are better over there now with their forum, but the Super8news poster who decried the fact that there are ones over here that have attitudes neglects to mention that the same problem pervades Super8news, and it doesn't take long to see who over there considers themselves mama/papa bear to the little cubs.

Theirs may be a more "can't we all just get along" site, but the absence of discipline shows, and only encourages more and more "Hey, I just found this site called Hook, Line and Sinker" comments.
