The Community Spotlight - 11/17/2011
By ZombiePie 23 Comments
Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight! After much discussion the mod team has decided to add "Community Highlights" to the Community Spotlight which will replace the previous "Noble Notables" Tab. This ensures that threads which encourage long term creativity continue to be encouraged and highlight but prevents the General Discussion Board from be cluttered with Anchored topics making it difficult to navigate the forums. Beyond this there are other major announcements worth talking about. Staff member Daniel would like you to know that a new item in the Whiskey Media Merchandise store is going to be announced soon. The Skyrim Marathon from last week is being archived on Giant Bomb for all users. Here's Part 1 if you haven't noticed. Wall posts have also been changed slightly, read about the changes if you can. Finally as always remember to check out the Giant Bomb YouTube Page as well as the Bomb Shelter for all of the best of the best of Giant Bomb. So with that here's Lemon's latest Bombcast Bombination video:
