Title: Do we really miss Nsider that much?
Post by: Ciel_00 on January 26, 2008, 07:51:03 PM
Nsider was mostly filled with childish spammers.  Not everyone had 100 people on their friendslist or knew the entire site.  Are we overrating the forums a bit much now that they don't exist anymore?

I still love the original Nsider even with its problems.
I did know a few people, but it was a big forum after all.

I'm glad it's gone.  I was IP banned for no apparent reason, and I wouldn't have seen any of you guys again if it hadn't been shut down. :-\

I miss that it was an official forum and some people who are elsewhere, but I know 90% of the people here and made new friends, so I'm not complaining anymore.

Despite the fact that I had been signed up since 2004-ish, I wasn't really popular, or in fact, very well liked at all.

So not alot, but still.

Yeah, and i loved pissing off certain people on Power On. I loved when someone would make a thread in power on saying "What's all this! Can't you read! It says Power On- Discuss Gaming! Not Real Life" and then everyone would mess with him

Once you started going every day you remembered some of the people, and yes I do miss Nsider that much! The spam and the fads along with some real question made NsiderPower On what it is.

Sort of do sort of don't. I miss a few people I can't talk to that much (have a few on my Wii...) so I miss that, but the smaller community gets more done.

I mostly visited power on and the gaming system boards.  I remember power on being filled with spam and picture threads.  They were fun at first but I got tired of them as time went on.  I spent too long on power on.  IMO, it wasn't healthy.

Power On and the Brawl boards were the most immature. That probably explains it.

I'll agree that the Fan Art Board is not as active, but for the most part the old board was a clique & nothing more. I don't mean to hurt any feelings, but I think a lot will agree that there was a lot of random brutality when it came to 'C&C'. Very often people begged to have their sig 'critiqued' & it was nothing more than a slam fest for some, others got ignored, and rarely did anyone get any real help. They received vague comments without explanation. There were the chosen few who decided what was good and what was not and you could be part of their group if you were willing to trash others work and suck up.

As far as missing old Nsider? I don't. This is better. It was a nice concept, though & from it we have this :)

Keywords were "I've ever seen."
Why would I waste my time to go to the Nick forums when I already know they'd be poop?

Considering that people feel the need to raid any Nintendo-run forum just to tell them to make a new Nsider, I'd say they care.  Too much.

I really couldn't care less that it's gone.  It's hilariously pathetic that some people were so devastated over it.  If I may mention a specific case, Arbok_X actually said that he was sure he would cry himself to sleep the night the place closed.

No joke.  He was totally serious about it.

There are plenty of other places on the internet.  I'll manage with those.

The feeling is neutral. I know no one here or on the original Nsider.
