Look, is it just me...

[Chmera]

...Or has everyone gone almost completely blind to anything I post? It's like you guys don't even want me here!

Just because I suck at making levels, just because I can't solve them for toffee either, just because I barely play the game itself anymore...

...Doesn't mean I'm not devoted! This crazy little fandom is zarking well DYING, and I'm still clinging on! I'm an endangered species! I still contribute, in my own way. I'm a fangirl, I don't play the game, but I SPREAD it. The fanfic-in-progress, the drawings... THEY'RE BEING FREAKING IGNORED!

You all SUCK! Go to hell! [smiley=mikeangry.gif]

[Mindless]

The community died with the server.  

[EricLang]

Did it really die?

@Chmera: Don't expect too much...
I saw a few "not-so-very-nice" posts from you. Offending people is certainly not going to help:)

[Chmera]

How the zark else would you feel if you had to create a new topic for anyone to recognise the fact you exist, EricLang? I'm the one who felt offended in the first place!

Ohhh dear.  What a nice thing to come back to.  I haven't been able to get in for weeks (timeout errors eternally!)

Just because I suck at making levels, just because I can't solve them for toffee either, just because I barely play the game itself anymore...

^^^Hey, don't fret... I'm like that and I bet a bunch of others here are.

And also... we do seem to be on the way out of existance.  I'll try and see what I can do for this, but not much probably.  Lemmings is still falling out of popularity, even with the new PSP game, which BTW came out yesterday (and I plan to buy a PSP and this in a few weeks).  *sigh*

I guess the community is just on it's own 5 second countdown... the great "Oh No" is probably on the way.

I know I am being very pessimistic, but why shouldn't I?  I mean, the only active topics here are those god-darn Level List Games!  What does that say about our poor selves?

*runs away*

Nope. Almost nobody goes to the level list topics anymore.

Somehow I feel the same as Chmera...

[JM2006]

Most things on this forum have been ignored for a while

[Ice_Eagle]

I know. The 5 word story, the Three word story, Pie Craft, Guess the next poster, etc...

What happened? This can't be right!  [smiley=mikesad.gif]

[Chmera]

I agree! I mean, think about it: Everyone's needed now. We can't push anyone out as we have too few people already...

People need introducing to the games - the original, the new PSP version, you know the drill.

What I've noticed is that this place seems to be dying when the fanartists, fanficcers and general fans like me dissappear. We're the ones that bring it to life, make it stand out. I'm not saying the levelmakers among us are no good - far from it! If we were all crazy fanpeople, we'd never get anywhere fast. You can't have one without the other.

The reason why I cling to this place anyway is because it's got memories for me: It was the very first forum I ever joined, and I've always used it as a place to fall back on. When everyone in real life or indeed on the internet seemed to hate me, everyone here would still welcome me no matter what, and I could have a laugh and let my hair down. This isn't the same place I joined over a year ago. All of its energy and fun seems to be gone.

We're not gonna get anywhere by crying about it and mourning its death in advance! We're not gonna let it die in the first place! I'm certainly not.

Everyone who's capable, we need your help. Do whatever you're good at, do it well. Whether it's drawing, writing, levelmaking, roleplaying or even just spreading the word, do it! You're needed!

[Mr. K]

I'm getting a PSP and Lemmings this summer so I can show others how cool the game is.  A few months ago I produced a new Lemmings fan by having him play DHTML Lemmings at school, but he doesn't have the internet.  And my brother is INSANE with making new DOS Lemmings level sets, so I might post a few (though they're not exactly that good)

I myself am working on and off on a Cheapo set.

I think we need to continue along with the Lemmings Remake so we can finish and release it!

EDIT: I also think that some people have left because they're finally fed up with the lag this place gets.

[Chmera]

Indeed. The lag is terrible...

[Mr. K]

Yes, I honestly can't stand getting around here.  The board goes down about once every 2-5 minutes!  And when it does go down, I sit and wait for about 10, then it'll load, and I can get around for another 2-5 minutes before the same happens.

What we need is to get this board moved to a better server.  Or make a new forum.  I can't take this much longer.

In fact, I'm going to go and (yet again) make a Lemmings forum on my server.  Because now, there is in fact a REASON to have a new one.  I'm pretty sure my server doesn't lag.

EDIT: //www.ksoftgames.digibase.ca/lemmings  <<There we have it.  Much better.  Will get a domain of sorts soon.

The lag is so bad it has timed out for the last week. The reason people seem to be gone is because they CAN'T get on. I'm heading off to ksoft forums for now.
