| Topic | Will you still be posting on PotD in the next 20 years? |
| ParanoidObsessive 07/20/19 6:38:35 PM #18: | Korruptor posted... I think GameFAQs won't be around in a few years. Came in to say this. I suspect GameFAQs won't be here in 10 years, let alone 20. Younger people tend to think that everything that's popular now (or that's at least be around for a long time) will stay around forever, but I've been on plenty of forums, boards, and chat rooms that no longer exist, even if they'd been around for years beforehand. GameFAQs continues to slow-bleed users, technology has made the concept of a FAQ more or less obsolete, and click-ad revenue is becoming less and less effective as a means of income for Internet services. GameFAQs will eventually reach a point where it doesn't generate enough money to justify the costs, as which point C|Net/CBS will shut the whole thing down (they might try to salvage the branding by restructuring the entire site or trying to establish premium subscriptions to support things, but neither of those things would even remotely work for this site in the current environment). --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...
