Why was it that internet gaming sites are losing money? (http://www.3dactionplanet.com/features/articles/doomfranchise/)

Maybe because they hire unfunny people to write humor columns instead of actual content. :/

That sort of stuff writes itself, really, and doesn't do a very good job of it either.

We could do a STREETFIGHTER MERCHANDISE SPECIAL (Ryu shaped marshmallows LOL!), but it would mean the site would have to be destroyed straight after.

'twas more like a Shoryuken.com thing, I think... they even had guilty gear X for sale.

Good job the site was deleted, then. Your "HerV Advent Calendar" idea was just the pinnacle of ROFLZ AND LOSL. :trannie

I haven't bothered to update my site since we had to ditch vbulletin. Cool part is, I'm not losing any money at all, since we get hosted for the low, low cost of $0/month. :D

C'mon, it's gotta be some kind of elaborate scam.

But meh, MMORPG.
