Since the Great Buildism Depression, many of our formerly active users have left or become very inactive. So here's a list of currently active users who come online regularly:

Aaron

There are others who aren't INACTIVE, exactly, like Ashely or CoderRyne or Micky, but these are the people who are here most days. It might be interesting to notice that all the first moderators are included on this list, and with the exception of roperson, all of the rest of them joined during or after the April Fools Raid.

And I gotta say the game is still friggin' beautiful. The levels are huge and the enemies are countless. And also Serious Sam is the first game I ever played and got me into fps's. The first time I played the game was when I was 4 or 5 with my dad on a computer with Windows 98, I think and it ran at like 17 frames and finally getting it on my computer blew my mind! The game runs so well on maximum settings at 70ish frames. So, yeah I'm very exited and also, I will be getting an Xbox just so I can play Sam 3 on max settings.

If all of the active members leave, Buildism will go away. If you're leaving because it's getting boring, you're only worsening the problem.

We still have new members joining regularly, so if the average forum post and game quality improves, more of them will stay and it will counteract the people who have been gone for a while or got banned.

Just try to post a constructive thread or reply every time you log in. It might feel forced at first, but eventually there will be more discussion going on and you won't have to make yourself do it.

I don't make much money from this site, so I'm just going to keep it available as long as I feel like it's helping somebody.

A hundred years ago, there was a small but friendly beach community on the coast of the Atlantic. With the exception of the occasional crime or disagreement, it was a great place to live.

But in the early 1930s, disaster struck in the form of the Great Depression. Many residents lost their jobs, and had to move back to the nearby major city that was known for having high crime, gangs, and dirt and trash everywhere.

For the citizens that remained, life did not change much at all. They still went to work every day and had friends in the town, but after seeing so many moving trucks and empty houses, they began to wonder: "So many people are leaving, should I leave too? Is it better over there in that city?" People even stood in the streets with signs that said "THE END IS COMING!", even though the ongoing depression wouldn't affect the majority of the townspeople, who were either retired or self-employed.

Over a period of several years, everyone left, simply because everyone else was doing it. Historians today still don't know what they were thinking.

Seriously...

Werebox not only uses Box2D, it really really looks like something an advanced scripter could easily make in Buildism.

So...I was using InnoDB as my storage engine for MySQL. Now, x10Hosting, I guess removed it. So now I have no way of recovering the ads on my site. Or anything else used with InnoDB, including MediaWiki.

WHAT DO I DO?
