[...] and I believe that the past day or two have shown that many, many people would be affected by having the site cease to exist. So I guess what I'm trying to say is: If you truly like something, try to find ways within your means to support it, through donations, time, effort and input. Within the past two days we've seen a spike of new members who have registered just to plead with us to not shut down the site. This give me a great amount of hope for the future, but it also makes me rather sad too. So many people have been enjoying what we've produced, but have not bothered to register until confronted with the possibility that TASvideos.org may be finite and mortal.

I already mentioned before, but thats a problem of every community. most people just watch, and dont do anything. This also applies for my in the case of TAS'. My spare time is bound by creating a game, other hobbys and some time doing nothing or enjoining your work.
I hope that this boost of registration will help getting more feedback in the future, but you cant really expect it. Today, most time you consume and dont create, thats how it works, sadly...
nevereverever do something like that again! you ruined my day yesterday!
nice to see that it will life on...
you will have inactive and just "watching" people in every community. I'm creating an rts with some guys in me spare time (for pc; thats the reason I dont have time to get involed here really), and we are having to much hits and watcher and our team only consists of 7 people. its alway a huge difference between active and inactive people.
but as it was already written by Nach, there is quite a mass of people wo dont wanted this site do die. good entertaiment is hard to find these days (;
I just registered (and waited a long time to for loading...) to make this post.
I dont really see a point of shutting the site down.
TAS' should entertain you, they show what is possibly on a machine that works exactly like the system was designed.
you cant compare it to a real console, but its using the same system architecture. It runs like the system would do if the hardware was perfect. SO you just have to write that down in the rules or somewhere that you are playing on a "perfected system", which is not comparable to a real console.
please dont shut the site down, you gave me hours of fun watching the movies, I would miss great site...
