Because Allen is a hack who took something CJay created and failed to do anything with it other than "keep it from shutting down" and even then he was only able to do it through repeatedly gutting the site's autonomy.

I've said this many many many times. Allen needs to step up on his social media game. Literally all IGN does on their social sites is post video game/movie trailers and memes all fucking day.

Krystal was later fired. She was a couple with Devin Morgan and my theory is Devin got mad when krystal sent snatch pics to Admiral who then stepped down to avoid the whole ordeal

Most sites end up shutting down the forums and diverting everything to social, because their message boards are huge money hole and potential liability (see: Bioware, IMDB, Wizards of the Coast, Sega, Gameloft, etc.).

In contrast, the message boards seem to be the only thing making gamefaqs.gamespot.com any money somehow, in spite of pretty much everyone running some form of adblocker.
