the world needs more geniuses with humility, there's so few of us left Posts: 513 Group: Members Member #8 Joined: June 29, 2008 Xbox Live Gamertag NessFK	January 31st marks the end of BDCgamer.com's paid for period, and I will have to renew it to maintain the domain name. Is it worth doing? If we want any hope of ever expanding, we need to keep the Bdcgamer.com, if we don't care and are ready to let the site die, killing the domain name is a good way to do so.

hi Posts: 121 Group: Members Member #30 Joined: February 5, 2009	I think it's fine to not renew it.

That way we can say goodbye without really having to. All of our aspirations and what not can live on through the spirit of BDC in another forum.

LOVE AVATAR Posts: 917 Group: Admin Member #10 Joined: July 4, 2008	My dad has PayPal and I'll just use that and pay him back later. I already discussed what direction BDC should go in (fulfilling one single role, like how we were primarily about Nintendo Wi-Fi in the past) but everyone objected to it even though we all agreed that no one cares about the site anymore. The way I see it is that if no one really cares then no one would object to a little renovation/experimentation with my idea, but as members don't want to change then that means the Blue Diamond Clan is in fact still here.

I still believe the best thing for this site is new members, and meetups, and just being a close gaming community (something you can't really find elsewhere). But ugh. Go to GoDaddy.com and login and pay. Username: nessquik password: baconishawt

Sounds like circular logic, but I'm for whatever'll keep the site alive long enough for me to become more a part of BDC.

Member Posts: 45 Group: Members Member #61 Joined: February 23, 2009 Playstation Network ID klaw224	Omgosh, i think i did a timely visit here, So I dont want BDC to die personally but i think the main reason why i dont go to BDC that much anymore is that i ditched playing online on my DS a long time ago. Im usually on the PS3 playing call of duty any Ps3 players here? and one reason why i dont get to BDC that much because of the timezone. I live in GMT+8 what are your timezones btw?

LOVE AVATAR Posts: 917 Group: Admin Member #10 Joined: July 4, 2008	Just because the domain name dies, that doesn't mean the site will die. Don't worry klaw

Corvid Fanboy Posts: 40 Group: Members Member #112 Joined: October 28, 2009	So even if the site doesn't die, wouldn't it still be better to have the domain not die?
