This community has changed so much. Me and the team worked our butts off to get SG back from the shit. This is how you thank us. Welcome to SG 2011. If you guys want SG come up with the money. Give it to one person to escrow to Amit + escrow fees. You can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk. You're acting like a total G now, some can take classes from you. See? Atleast one way to make money without fucking up it's members If we would like to buy SG, how much would you ask?? And please awnser honestly Link to comment

Atleast one way to make money without fucking up it's members If we would like to buy SG, how much would you ask?? And please awnser honestly Get your head out of your fucking ass and actually think about what goes into running a community. I ran one for about two months, a couple of people here know of it - ProficientGamers, (Don't go searching, it's long dead, URL has been sold) the stress behind it all was immense, even more so because of the costs... Just for me alone, a 17 year old paying £100 a month with a shit part time job, it was a bloody struggle... Also the planning needed, the time it takes to set up all the servers, email accounts, forums, databases, DNS configs, the list goes on... With what Amit has been proposing, I can see the costs of running this community come up to $700-$1000 a month, can you really pay that? Do you really think the rest of the community will, to be honest I don't, we struggled to get $450 in December... Next, from what I've been reading, Amit says he is going to increase SG's popularity, re-do the SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) do you even know anything about that? Next, running a community is a full time job, with all your school work you couldn't do it. Daily issues that WILL arise, do you think you have the time, knowledge and nohow to fix all of them? I can go into SOOOO much more detail but I'm sure you wouldn't want to read it all... ~Tweezy My view on Amit (Don't have one for the other dude as I'm yet to see him) What he is proposing is some good shit, he looks like he knows what he is doing, he is the future for SG, at it will be a bright one. 4 Edited February 25, 2011 by Tweezy Link to comment

The day to day actual runnings are mainly delagated as you cannot micromanage something this big. The only thing Garfield dealt/deals with is collecting donations and paying for the rented equipment and the odd dip in to bans/appeals/possible admin strike threads to deliver his duly noted cents. That being said as far as I've been told Amit will not be around, the job of overall management will be run by Charles. Link to comment

From what I've heard from Amit in the chat box, everything technical is changing, new boxes for dedi, webhosting... Everything else sorts of falls into that, really everything is being changed, the only difference is that SG already has a loyal player base. Link to comment
