Goob Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I like this place. Reasons: NO CPU hogging ads We have the founder/admin(s) that actually care about the user's opinions. We have a close relationship with the founder/admin(s) Unfortunately, Youtube just doesn't want to follow those tracks. Youtube is all about $_$ $_$ $_$ $_$ $_$ $_$ Gimme your feed back. Agree? Disagree? Link to comment
Cirevam Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Also compare content. RRU's monthly bandwidth usage is nothing compared to any video hosting website. Link to comment

karsten Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I think if you never played LRR and come accros to it now you wil not play/buy/download it and if you gonne play it (again) you mostly have played this game in your childhood. Link to comment
Cyrem Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Thanks for the compliments. Firstly, I hate ads. They ruin the user experience they reduce loading times, clutter the design and as said on 'the social network' make a 'cool' site 'uncool'. But this is not to say it's never going to be on the table, if I'm at lack of funds I may be forced to do something. Unfortunately when you go 'big' you lose that communication simply because the founder doesn't have time to be in with the community, they are busy running things so other people can be in the community. Also there is no 'heart' in corporate companies, just greedy stock holders trying to get everything they can before things go down and people getting told what to do. Fortunately, RRU isn't a corporate company. Link to comment

Amauros Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 The only possibility of RRU becoming a company is when DDI (or some other game company) decides that remaking LRR or making a sequel to it would benefit from recruiting this forum (for ideas and/or cheaper labor).... Link to comment

Thank you for telling me that. *takes a breath* I remember Youtube in August 2005; and it looked and acted exactly like this site. Not much flash (if any), no ads, ~1000 users. A few years later, people relized that there was a really cool video hosting site called Youtube. The thing about facebook ads is that most are made by the users of facebook. Link to comment
