I can see where they are coming from though; these guys have screwed us over pretty badly with the lack of support, and since the forum is going to be closed anyway, people are just venting their anger. ;)

Todd Miller did make a small posting recently, but aside from that it has been well over a year.

Guess I better finish that model I've been working on to keep the massive influx of  newbies in line. :p

Oh yes, and note how the notice about shutting down the VOLITION bulletin board came from a THQ employee?  [V] barely exists any more.

1400? I only see 400 :confused:
Yeah, it is pretty odd...THQ buys Volition, Squad war forums get shut down...then the VBB. :doubt:

I bet they'll dismantle :v: next, like Sierra did with Dynamix or EA did to Origin. (?)

I have noticed that too. I guess it kind of makes sense; THQ owns Volition now, and they get to make any major decisions; V has no voice in that. :p I'm not sure whether our misfortunes are due to THQ, Volition, or both; who knows what the real situation over there is and who is actually calling the shots...
