Copied from original WCF:
How is everyone?
It's a massive shame.
I've seen these 'dips' come and go, but this one seems permanent. I don't know what it is, but a lot of us have fallen out of love with online wrestling forums. I love WCF and will help as much as I can, but the old guys have moved on and when I've been on recently, it just seems like a forum full of inhospitality and inactivity. It's a lot of pressure for the new guys to carry on the legacy. I haven't made a graphic for about 3 years and WCF has been in the back of my mind throughout that time, but back in the day it was amazing.
I remember Graphicsmania on the old board getting 200 viewers online at once. Those days will never be replicated, but I can definitely say I would be massively upset if WCF closed forever.
I am building a portfolio for my career so will be on as much as I can. We need to advertise more as a design forum and maybe move away from the wresting slightly as I feel it creates too much of a niche. There are a lot of talented designers on here who can produce excellent graphics and we need to push towards that. We don't need to be the biggest or the most active, as long as we are the best.
We can live on without thinking about the past. I will sign up to the new board and be as active as I can. No matter what I'm doing now with my 'actual' life, WCF was my everything from 2005 to 2012 and I will never forget that. I am on board let's stick to it and make something of our new start.
Props to everyone who has put money and time into the last 13 years, we owe it to ourselves to give this forum a chance.
ps. i was always the best member so if i am here, what can go wrong.
pps. j/k
