Just want to say thank you to Bill Murphy, SBFord and all the staff here that make the website possible and for dealing with one of the whiniest forum communities on the internet. This is my go-to website to find my next game. Thank you all again and happy new year.

I second that.
For all the complaints, MMORPG.com forum is still the most open, the Mods are quite understanding, and you can say pretty much everything you want as long you don't directly offend or troll another person.
In 10 years I got maybe 3-4 warning, and as you can see from my posts I am hardly Ghandi...........
So well done guys, keep it going.
Anyway if I have to make a critic (it won't be me otherwise) you should really start being more critic with AAA MMOs.
Way too often you give the wrong impression of supporting big developers by being too nice with your reviews/previews, even going against the general consensus of your member base.
Just my 3 cents..........
I'll add my words to those above Thanks for the great job putting up with us. Have a great New Year!

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse.- FARGIN_WAR
Yeh, happy new year!
This forum is more fun than many games, MMOs included.
All things considered they do a really good job.
Happy New Year!
I've pretty much given up game shopping. However, my thanks to MMORPG.com staffers for a clean well-lit place for news, opinion pieces and forums. I think I have more fun here than in the games.
2014? Ugh. But happy new years to all. :-)
Happy New Years from this account and my other banned accounts PAST, PRESENT and FUTURE.
Heres hoping that 2014 is the year an account can last for at least a year =P
Word. MMORPG.com is one of my daily stops. Actually, I spend an inordinate amount of time here. I really enjoy the features and game coverage, and I get a kick out of the forums.
There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

Forum PvP on mmorpg.com is often more fun than PvP in-game. the open and fair way these forums are run is what makes it possible.

You changed up the routine a lot. The new you rocks. My money is on it making the full year.

but then i was comforted by the thought that he's not doing this for free
merry new year to you all. my most favoritest forum pvp site.

One could be called finite, the other infinite.
A finite game is played for the purpose of winning,
an infinite game for the purpose of continuing play."

It's been a great value, well being free and all of course, and while I certainly don't always agree with how it's run, I do appreciate the staff's efforts to create a good gaming site, especially the forum.
Looking forward to the new changes in 2014.

I think Bill is doing great actually.
What I like about him is that he tries hard to understand what MMORPG.com members want/need.
Just because he is paid, that doesn't mean that he has to accept so much criticism, it is not easy, even if you are paid well.
