So here we go, day three at Giantbomb.com and so far I have to say that I am very impressed with how everything is working out. Well, that might be a little over exaggeration, for starters I wish our submissions would get approved faster, but then again with 6 staff and twenty thousand submissions things might post a little challenge. For some reason i am filled with anticipation, I just want something to happen to those earliest submissions I posted which I believe are pushing the 50-hour mark. Anyways what I am most amazed at is the moderation or the lack thereof; having been a member of gamespot for almost five years has thought me to rethink every sentence I post and make sure that it is in no way possible offensive to anyone. I mean seriously, ever since Jeff.G. and most of the upper echelon staff left that site, everything has gone to hell. Anyway screw that site...its done with.
Moving on, I am also very excited to be a part of this brand new site and this brand new community that is teeming with thousands of users. We as some of the first users on this website can really be part of how this website evolves. I think when the staff made this site they made it with the ideals that it is a website for gamers by gamers. In that sense I find it to be superior to any other website I have been part of. This community, albeit a few days old is carving out its own identity, I am very proud to be part of that experience. I don’t think I've been this excited about a website in a long time. In fact while I was a member at gamespot it took me about 3 1/2 years to cross the 300 post count and it took me about 2 years to make a blog. However, I am already at 50 posts and I am making a blog on day 3, I think this more than anything speaks to how exciting this experience is for me. Anyways I am ranting too much. How do all you guys feel about this site? I am the only person who is this excited? Thanks for reading and let me know your thoughts
