Dude had the resources at the right place and the right time. He offered an alternative site when the old site burned down. Now he made 4.5 million off that. Pretty crazy... Also morally weird...
Anyway, skipping the line of thought where I'm still shell shocked by the cynicism of the move and how my life is in ruin and I'm depressed as fuck...
I'm really curious about Dungeon Encounters. Like, is it the most mediocre shit ever or a genuine good idea ? If I had more cash I would buy it.
I can't believe that forum had any worth to begin with.![]()

I just saw that I bought it 10 years ago. Oof.Zomboid has been going for so long, I feel like in time everyone will own it. Even if you weren't interested.Actually a really good game, please play
I would think the site was making ad money regardless
Sales in the last twelve months (up to and including 31 August) amounted to approximately USD 700,000 with an EBITDA margin of approximately 80%. [...] ResetEra.com's revenue is generated through ads and member subscriptions. M.O.B.A. Network sees significant opportunities to increase advertising revenue through a higher share of direct sales, implementation of new ad formats, and a long-term product development strategy.
Honestly, if Era generated just 50K $ a month, that's about half a million a year. it seems strange why a company would pay 4.5$ million, unless they either plan to ramp up the ads, or monetise it in some other form. That's the issue with selling to a corporation. They aren't a charity and they wouldn't have spend that money if they didn't already have some plan on getting it back, and making more money on top.
The rest goes directly in the owner's pocket. That is roughly USD 50,000 per month which goes in the site owner's pocket, after paying for site maintenance.
That is exactly what they wrote.unless they either plan to ramp up the ads
Nobody reads the 2 quoted lines in my previous post, I guess.M.O.B.A. Network sees significant opportunities to increase advertising revenue through
- a higher share of direct sales, :wat:
- implementation of new ad formats, :mmyes:
- and a long-term product development strategy.

I should probably migrate my funny pic/vid threat to metacouncil
Nabs already mentioned Mon Amour, from Onion Games, is now out.
There's another Japanese indie game out now, a platformer/puzzle mix, with an insanely catchy soundtrack:
i'm not sure what this game is, but it has a really cool style
Chet RTed this so there you have it, the name of the game ^^
But much more lovely![]()

This will be the second free expansion/DLC for the game since it launched.
I guess the rumor/leak was true.
Lends credence to Genshin possibly coming later. I bounced off Genshin last year, but would consider it if it could run on the Deck. I think the anti-cheat still messes it up on Linux last I recall.
Yeah Steam has been extremely slow for me the past day and only overall reviews are showing up.Steam is slow and reviews are not viewable for me.![]()

Community - The humor thread - Here comes the fun
The world is often a dark, ugly, scary place. So let's make this thread our safe haven, our refuge where we can hide and share funny stuff among each other. Written jokes, hilarious pictures, funny videos, blooper gifs, silly memes, you name it. Everything goes here. I'll start with a few...metacouncil.com
Bah don't be shy, I spam nonsense every day and no one seems to mind!I am so shy that I don't know if my pic/vid spam every day will be appreciated![]()
It went in game consistently after I changed it to borderless mode (and changed other stuff like turn off gsync on my monitor, doubt that was it). It crashed every time I took a screenshot still though so maybe RTSS (with MSI Afterburner) was the cause after all, that's what I use for screenies/temp monitor, fps limits, etc. Coincidentally, after doing that it also loaded way faster and was a breeze to get through all the different load screens and in a mission.That has been in the game series for as long as I remember, they do that to save resources.
RTSS was causing it to crash for me. I read that someone with multi-monitors had to disable all but one for it to run but I have multi-monitors and ran it after closing RTSS.

That's how I see it too. Citing health concerns makes little sense, as he wasn't involved in the day to day running of Era and if he needed money for health reasons, then I can't imagine someone who earned half a million a year being uninsured or being unable to afford any treatment.I honestly can't hate the guy for doing this. He saw his shot and he took it. With how forums are declining I'm shocked it was even worth that much and I'd have sold too.
Almost there, Only 2.6 million more foils to sell!Some people making 4,5 million USD, while I'm happy I just sold a foil card I listed a year ago for 1,76€.![]()

I have foils that don't sell that are older than resetera
I have foils that are only worth like 0.06€.![]()
I got the otherland one no later than 30/12/2015 and still no fucker will buy it. The Dogos one is from 2017 as well.
Yeah I had a Foil Pack sell for 70$ at the beginning of the year - allowed me to buy Resident Evil 8 and Hunt showdown.
No lies, that felt amazing when I saw the notification come through, considering it was on the marketplace for a year.
I am so shy that I don't know if my pic/vid spam every day will be appreciated![]()
