Well, for one, if you would read the post or search for the answer on why this site is slow, you wouldn't waste the space. But, since I am posting here I might as well give you an answer.
This site is new, and is in the open beta stages.
There has been a great influx if people adding articles, images, reviews, blogs, posts, etc. etc. So therefore the back end server I am sure is under a lot of stress. So yea. There is your answer for the slow.
"and it looks like a combo of GS and Youtube for some reason"
It doesn't look anything like YouTube. And if you think it's slow today you should have been here yesterday. In fact I think it's running perfectly today.
This site is pretty original for what it is -- it's a video games Wiki but with a stronger community than I've ever known on a Wiki site. And it's only been open for one day.
i'm thinking if the site being fast now has anything to do witht he fact that it's still early in the morning and most of us are either at work or sleeping.
"Do they even have a mod team around here or it is just over run "
There isn't currently a mod team at the moment but they will be contacting people in the upcoming week or so about possible positions. Its only day two so calm down. Its not going to be perfect in the opening week.
"Yeah, the mod team should start to appear soon enough "
Yeah I really think they need some mods, at least a few, and I'm happy to help out lol. Just so that they could keep the forums clean and get a little pressure of off Jeff , Ryan, VInny, and Brad.
Have you ever been in an open beta before? I was in three for the various incarnations of Gamespot, and this is no worse than their first one. (lithium) This is GB's first one as well, so you have to grin and bear it. Some people can't, and thats why they just registered their user names and left, to wait for things to settle down.
