Not trying to fan the flames of hatred or anything but the following update was posted to Jim's thread: http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?StartRow=1&catid=7&threadid=189079
Update (10.23.2019):
The GoCollect team has been hard at work getting everything migrated over to the new platform. We've had multiple people reach out to us asking if we've heard about the new forum that was launched by some of the previous admins and moderators. The answer is yes, we saw it pretty much right away. The reason why we haven't deleted any of the previous posts promoting the new forum is that we genuinely care about the video game community and if people want to join another forum, we support that. That said, NintendoAge will only be bigger and better in a short period of time.
Starting shortly, we will no longer allow any type of spam or promotional posts about the new forum.
I will start answering questions as well as give you all other updates either Friday or Saturday this week. The reason for the delay is that I want to make sure we give you all accurate information and we need a little more time.
...and the announcement thread for this forum was locked:
