I've noticed that over the past few years, the clickteam forums have gotten much more active than the daily click. While TDC is getting a bit more active, clickteam support has gotten much more swamped. I think its a sign of how many newcomers we've been getting- people that hopefully will eventually start visiting TDC. Many people spurred on by the newgrounds initiative, in particular.
Yeah, the clickteam forums are mainly full of noobs.
There's been a bit more activity on the forums here lately, but a few more downloads would be nice (and full games - not just minigames/demos/examples/engines/etc).
And yes, I know I'm being a hypocrite and should make something myself...
The updates on the front page are shit. Either the admins are all too busy to post news or just don't care too much. I thought the front page is all that's going on in the click scene but now that I follow clickteam on Facebook I noticed all the stuff that's going on tdc just ignores news.
Wtf is up with that
Example : I didn't see any news about the game builder competition or clickteam talking about that expo they went to where the tested the PSP phone or something.
I've seen some good games that were never brought up here.
Also who the fuck is hitmanN I never see him post on here.I'm glad I'm at least on the list even tough I'm second last
I don't even look at the frontpage any more - I just have a speeddial link to the forums (I'm only really interested in the forums, downloads and articles).
I'm sure if you send the admins a link to something interesting and klik-related that you have seen, then they would post it on the frontpage.
HitmanN is a nice guy. He made "Tank Game", which you should definitely try, if you haven't already. I haven't seen him post anything in a while though - must be hard at work on his new RPG-platformer project.
We can only do so much, my life has gotten busier lately and I'm doing my best. I generally, though not always, only post stuff that happens at the site. Rikus has stepped down, and I can't really explain on behalf of the other admins

We might get another admin on board.
if admin means look around on the dc and ripping stuff off of clickteams facebook which is a great source no one of you guys seems to use i would do it
I think it's a sad thing he had to go but I do believe it is better for this site. Now we can actually talk without half of the people getting pissed off about blocking, deleting and ballistic !!!!!-y newsposts.
hint to Admin (if something starts it also ENDS aka people might be interested about the results AKA link me to the news posts that talks about all the entries and that the competition ended)
---------
seriously rikus is NO ADMIN NO MORE?!
what will happen to the click podcast?!
i love rikus?!
i am very shocked!
this is shocking news
where is the front page article about this (another news you guys let slip through?)
rikus is an awesome guy. look at all the stuff he has done. all the time he has dedicated to the click community. if it wasnt for rikus there would be no daily click. so please show some respect.
Wow, didn't know he'd stepped down (Rikus) and that's a shame. It would also explain why a) we haven't seen much from him (d'uh!!) and b) why the Front Page is a little empty (he did used to post quite a bit on there)
Like Flava, Rikus didn't want to make a massive news post or anything, just slip away quietly without a fuss. Although it should be said that this is more of a sabbatical rather than a complete departure from TDC, we probably won't see him for several months, though I don't think it's right that users say nasty stuff behind his back. Like him or loathe him (who would dislike him?) he has contributed an incredible amount to the community. Without him there would (probably) have been no KlikCast, no interactive community site, no Daily Click.
Mr Gadaffi and Rikus shouldn't really be compared together either. It's... what are the words... a bit mean
There was a sort of admin discussion about who should be the new "figurehead" of TDC but we came to the agreement that there will in fact be no direct person in charge. But we're still going to keep things running as best we can, and try and keep things the way Rikus would have wanted.
So yes, things are a little quiet perhaps, I admit. But if you find something thats newsworthy, feel free to submit it to us. The Gamebuilder results haven't been announced yet, but when they are, we will cover them as well. We also have other ideas in the pipeline that may increase interactivity on the site...
True, but he has made a judgement call on leaving TDC; he has his reasons, and I think its fair to be respectful of that. Rikus hasn't been around since 27th March and wants to honour his decision

Respect to whom respect deserve.
trolls who only leave negative comments about everything and attack everything and everyone and yet visit this page don't deserve any respect.
Also notice how I'm plugging game builder info fully aware that you are behind it so I am not based or anything.
Thank you very much
try to keep some peace on here please
I do find it sad but there was a hell of a lot of fishyness going on some time ago, much like the "ShadowCaster era". My only complaint with him was meddling with discussions he did not agree with or like.
I wish him all the best in life and in bringing his family up. Most people (myself included) find it hard to juggle hobbies and real life, I have recently retired as an admin on a gaming server due to not having the time anymore.

That inspired me to draw this
I've attempted to represent each admin in it.
- Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen -

Yeah, I'm getting kind of pissed. Neither Adam or Fanotherpg has even started judging (that i'm aware of. their sections of the judging googledocs spreadsheet is completely empty), which would be fine if we had some other people step in to judge, but getting in contact with KetchupMaster about it has been unsuccessful.
Ill judge on saturday or Sunday. Just moved away and started a new job, so been pretty busy.
And MasterM, you just made a thread featuring some painting of a guy on a penis. Things Id perhaps giggle at when I was 10. Drop the "I speak words of maturity and wisdom" facade, a leopard never changes its spots.

dear mister lolcatz
would you do me a favour and stop only giving me the maturity line. overall this is your only defense and only thing you always address. all you say is "grow up- maturity something yadda yadda"
i don't see myself going around and even CLAIMING i am mature. im not but i am not a dick who talks trash about everyone on this site, hates half the admins and picks fights with pretty much everyone.
i think penises are funny, i think night pimmel was funny and i enjoy being around here.
you are uptight about everything, insecure and just permanently whine and complain about basically everything.
just like circy said: leave rikus alone.
and like i say: leave everyone alone- lose that attitude and you might come off as a nice person which means: i don't buy your leopard spot theory because if i stuck to it this means you will always keep on acting like a terrible dick which means
why has no admin banned mr Adam yet? i am not the only member who isnt too happy about your attitude and you even say you won't change.
oh dear i still hope for the better.
so yes showing a person some respect who gave you this fine website and being mature has nothing to do with each other. even the smallest child learns how to respect people, especially the elders.
so maybe you should be LESS mature: show respect to people
learn how to have some fun
don't be such a fart and uptight
also comparing a nice friendly dutch to an insane murdered is the mature way to go? i rather stay 10 for ever if thats the way.
the adam way is saying something that hasn't got anything to do with the current topic (aka mention some completely different topic, bring up the origin of a person and attack their location or something like that) and try to attack people that way. stay focused and on topic and try harder, man.
no more "mature" and "grow up" lines - they are seriously getting old/mature by now.
