Though I did see a post from him over there that finally said, "you GoCollect guys royally shit the bed, I'm outta here." He left Discord as well, Adam is a great guy but he had his reasons I suppose and at times I wish he would reconsider, but perhaps one day... Not that I have much room to talk as I have gone semi awol with real life things (nothing bad) but I do try to check in and see how the gang is getting along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure, but he did seem to have issues with some the people who were spearheading the creation of VGS. I don't know why.

ThePhleo | 2,184 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Joel hasn’t made it over, or Dain :( In all seriousness though, I think B.A is missing, and I haven’t seen @Bronty post in a while except in a few select threads. Id say about a third of the active community is MIA, but in reality moved over mostly to Instagram and partially to Facebook. Shame really, I can tell GoCollect really just wanted to make a business out of the ordeal and didn’t realize the community was very tight knit...I personally place all blame on Dain himself for the splintering of the NA community and the loss of the NA Database, it’ll take a decade to replace just the Brazilian and Pirate section of the NES database alone. GoCollect might have disrupted things, but they’re just a business. I have no idea why Dain decided to piss in everyone’s cheerios. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Bogomil | 815 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) Haven't seen Quaze around in a while although his profile said he logged in Thursday so I'm guessing his activity has just been down lately.

Bearcat-Doug | 5,104 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Pat the NES Punk didn't come over either. It's shocking with all of the glowing things he used to say on his podcast about the old place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link | 2,709 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) It may have been after the drama started, I’m not sure. I just remember they didn’t say much if anything from then on, and they haven’t shown up here. I sent CZroe a PM about Permastruct cases near the end and he didn’t answer. He was working on some unspecified “project” about them, I presume documenting all of their text. Edited July 13, 2020 by Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tulpa | 3,492 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) CZroe and Ichinsan were gone a fair amount of time before NA collapsed. In fact, I remember one of them, Ichinisan I think, being MIA for several months. I only noticed because they were such prolific posters, and then one stopped posting one day, and then the other sometime after. No explanation, they just disappeared into cyberspace.

So maybe they were too busy running their business to keep up with the forum. I think they're on all the other big site slangin' those modz.
