Overview
Gamers are some of the whiniest people you will ever meet. Actually, I mean to say that gamers are some of the whiniest people you will ever encounter on the internet. It’s unlikely that you’ll ever meet one, since, well, gamers don’t leave their homes. I know, because I’m a gamer, and sometimes I forget what the sky looks like. Gamer whine when a sequel gets made to their favourite game and, as such, tarnishes that original in some imagined way. Gamers whine when a sequel to their favourite game is never made, because then they can’t give away as much of their otherwise useless disposable income.
Gamers whine when a new game isn’t coming to their favourite console, and they really whine when a game is coming to their most hated console. For the gaming community of 2009, no console is more hated than the Wii. You see, the Wii continues to sell incredibly well, and bring new (scary) people to gaming, an industry which, much like its most loyal customers, is in need of a shower and a bit of physical exertion.

I. The Usual
Part 1: If you break one of these rules you’re probably going to get banned:
1. Don’t post copyrighted material or give people instructions on how to illegally access copyrighted material. This includes mp3s, porn, ROMs, etc.
2. If you’re going to post an image, sound clip, or video that is offensive, pornographic, or disgusting, do so only as a link, and make sure you label it clearly as “NSFW” or something. In other words, don’t post anything that is going to get a person strange looks or fired just for browsing the forums.
3. Do not make any non-sarcastic threats against anyone, especially other members of the forums.
4. Don’t post other people’s personal information, including address, phone number, email address, or other contact information without their consent.
5. Don’t post ads. Yes, you can pimp your LiveJournal or latest artistic endeavor, just make sure you’re a real person first, and that you’re here for a reason other than to make money.

On the 8th anniversary to the day of Shufflingdead.com (okay, it was technically the morning of the following day, but give me this) I finally finished porting everything over to WordPress.
Note that the links on the left to the forums and the old site are gone. The old site is gone, so there’s nothing left to link to, and the link to the forums is now on the right, where all of the other community and networking links are.
