Sorry Mad, but I must ask about the your use of the word "Paysite" in Rex's query. The one thing I love about API is that ussually any site that's even HALF the quality of API you have to pay for. API is a fantastic site for those of us who for some reason can't (or wont) subscribe to a site. PLEASE don't say your gonna make us pay!!!

[SIZE=2]<span style="font-family:arial">That's exactly what is not going to happen,smooth.

As you know,several big-name sites like GameSpot and IGN have implemented "enhanced" features for those willing to pay.What we are doing is trying to get the main site up (and maybe even over) their level.To that end Jim B has been working very hard on a brand new main page that,from what I've seen of the test,will go over very well.However,at no time will we asking anyone to pay to access the site or the forums!

If I may just add a bit here, the term "Paysite killer" is that that is JUST what we are......... we are sooooooo good that we KILL any paysite's opportunity for any success, 'cause when any new members come here and see everything that they get for free here, they'll never want or need to go to any other site where they'll have to pay....... we shall KILL all those paysites....... right outta the water, and leave 'em gasping on the beach, to die a slow and lonely and painful death!!!!! heheheheee!!!!!! WE ARE NUMBER ONE!!!!!!!!!

Ok, i guess i should personally explain my use of the term "paysite killer". APi is undergoing some momentous changes which will have people rethinking what APi is about. What this means is that the paysites out there(IGN, Gamespot, etc. etc.) should be watching for us to be making our moves on their members as we're free and they're not....therefore me coining us the paysite killer. All we can do is the best that we can do and so far this is looking so much better than the competition. So watch out all for the paysite killer as we're storming in and taking no prisoners.
