I have some good news for the future of GAC. ..

Do you all remember Deltas advert that he made a while back? That hit the MPN and brought a lot of people over here. Well.. I was looking at Deltas profile and I noticed a feature achievement. I was off to congratulate him when I went and checked what creation got featured.

It was his GAC advert.. This means a hell of a lot.

1:
There will undoubtedly be a spike in the amount of members we have during the March - April season.

2:
Delta will be catching up to us pros in subs.

3:
We need to start to prepare the forum for this. I think that we should let people sign up and join immediately, it may have been a problem before.. but its fairly easy to get rid of a user. A number of people would forget they even signed up if its still up.

IDK, fixes to the forum are not to be discussed yet. I think this new-found news is good enough for one day.

Congratz Delta!

This is your first feature, right?

Oh Delta, you legend!

I had an adventure featured back in January, but they made me wait roundabout half a year between the achievement and the feature that time around.

This is unexpected.

This is good news on so many levels.

It would appear I am also getting featured.

AWESOME!

Congrats on the feature. I'm personally surprised that Maxis featured it. I thought they didn't feature things with references to external sites?

Perhaps they don't know that.

Maxis thinks we are all kids imaginaring clubs.

This is good news.. but you should have added the "Good news everyone!" video on YouTube...

It is planned to be up there on March 29th.

Awesome. Nuf said.

Though I must say more. I don't think allowing people to join right away is a good idea, as the spam nuts will also see it as an advertisment to target GAC.

Then we will ban them. It seems like you admins do not trust us moderators to handle our job without you..

w00t. Maybe we can actually get some cool conversations going on here with people who still play Spore. We seem to be running out of those.

Congrats on the feature delta.

As for the new members, I'll try my best to validate all the newcomers' accounts as fast as possible. But I'm NOT going to change the settings to "Allow the user to join the second he registers" ever again. It's a bad idea.

But I'll manage, no worries.

Awesome!
Now we'll have more creators come, and hopefully some famous creators too!

so awesome. grats delta, this is the really trippy one that glass has as his profile pic, right?

That's the one.

Wow... That is awesome.

Yay for awesomeness!

It's so epic it actually deserves to be my avatar.
