IMO, ever since the forms changed last (the entire layout/server change) FM seems to be quieting down. Less traffic and less postage.

Then with YouGamers it went down even further, and has DROPPED dramatically with the futuremark.yougamers.com change.

WFT is getting into FM? Are you guys starting to take drugs or something? This is a forum about benchmarking, overclocking, and modding, not about gaming. There was little gaming going on in this place anyway, and yougamers was dead quiet. Now you bring in a dead yougamers to a small minority gaming community here, wtf are you guys smoking? That is what Gamespot and IGN are for! Plus it seems like the benchmarking, overlclocking and modding part of this forum is dying away.

Also, imo, the new website as a whole looks way less professional. It looks like very other vBulletin website out there. The old FM looked professional and unique which is hard to come by in a forum.

All I can think of is that you guys are done with 3dmark and are now pushing games on us. I think that it would be better off with FM doing their own PC gaming benchmark testing, and possibly making the first game for benchmarking purposes only. Plus come out with a few games using the 3dmark engines. [thumbup]
Plus you could always license your engines and give some of the profit to fellow FM members!!!
