In case you haven’t noticed, there hasn’t been as many posts recently. Much less posts than I would like. In fact, the last post was last Thursday, January 6th. Also, in case you haven’t noticed, I have been the only one posting for the last couple months. This is due to a number of things: school, extracurriculars, the burgeoning social life that is akin to a growth in an uncomfortable place. Because of these things, it’s been nearing eleven at night by the time I sleep, and that leaves no time for mod talk. In fact, it’s 10:30 right now, haha! (oh god i’m so tired)
So, before the last remaining readership files out of the decrepit tower that is Usercreated, I’d like to call upon all of you to give me assistance in keeping this grand site alive.
You can help in two ways: by sending me links to cool things you find so I don’t have to spend an hour delving the internets trying to find stuff, or by helping me write.
First: the links part. I wasn’t kidding about the hour part. Yes, trawling ModDB takes a lot of work, and I’ve been coming too close to regurgitating news posts for comfort. I don’t want UC to degrade into a news robot, endlessly reposting news because it’s both not fun to read and it’s not fun to write. Therefore, if you see some sort of mod that looks really cool, some unpolished gem hidden in the depths of the ‘net, send it on over to contact[at]usercreated.org. I don’t actually have access to the email, so I can’t see what people send. To fix this, I’ll probably bother Mr. Lewis Denby or Mr. Andrea Varotsis for access. Please don’t send ModDB news posts. Chances are good that I’ve already seen it. If you must send ModDB stuff, say “Hey, I saw this really neat mod over at ModDB, have you guys seen it yet? [link]” and I’d say huh, that looks pretty neat and throw it on up for everyone to see. Continue reading →
