Does anyone legitimately care about this place anymore

[RedAce]

Honestly, just to check up when I'm bored and have a place to keep tournaments hosted and archived when needed.  The only reason I haven't considered making a tournament Discord-exclusive is that it would be cluttered in organization, and just unnecessary overall.

Legit question

Do people actually care about this place outside of filehosting/tutorials and nostalgia

Yes, believe it or not

[SagarisRA2]

Personally I feel the community has definitely moved to discord now. I don't think anyone showcases like they used to anymore here, just on discord. People don't post their reps in the "pay tributes with replica page", just on discord.

GTM is outdated now IMO. The download section and tutorials are the only pages I think people consistently still have use for.

[doot]

bold of you to assume I cared in the first place

[yugitom]

Outside of nostalgia? Nah, but my nostalgia is  a pretty strong motivator, so I do care.

[Meganerdbomb]

Honestly Discord has eventually made this place redundant for everything outside of tournament records/vids and filehosting, but this place acts as a repository for pretty much the whole of RA2 history and shouldn't be dispensed with if it can be avoided.

I don't think anyone wants to delete the forum. more so just put a freeze on posting outside of the rr2 section

That doesn't make any sense. There's still value in hosting RA2 tournaments here and people still might want a permanent place to post any bots they build. The showcase section still sees some activity.  I guess you could go ahead and shut down the off topic section since I don't see why anyone would sh**post on a forum now that Discord exists.

It's a place to check up on in my free time. 

I enjoy the tournaments, though I'm disappointed that smaller events like the challenge board aren't getting as much love.  Maybe I'll put something up there.

Personally, I think my interest in GTM started declining once BOTM stopped happening.  No idea why, and it might just be correlation.

WHAT???? ..... When did BOTM stop???

What is RR2

What is RR2

When people stopped making bots for it. And RR2 is a new Robot Combat game.

i do.

not sure why but



and like even if no one cares why arbitrary stop people from posting? its not like the discord is a good substitute anyway. obviously i agree with keeping it around as a record as well but it's still better than discord even apart from that

as pwn said, it would be a way to keep the forum clean till the rr2 section grows

'clean' is unneeded and really arbitrary tbh

Discord is a trash platform where anything relevant is un-search-ably and un-sort-ably lost to time.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Someday the forum will split into RA2 and RR2 sections. Plus maybe a section for coordinating Robot Champions matchmaking with each other. Just let things run their course. GTM has been "just 6 months from death" for like 10 years.

Throw me in there too. I might try picking it up after I graduate and get a new computer.

The real robots are cancelled. We all come crawling back.

[Meganerdbomb]

Man, I didn't know so many of yall were still around.

This is GTM, it will never die.

Also being "around" for 20 days per year, eh, I wouldn't call that being around.

[kaiser]

Yeah, this is where the other people that play this game are.
