In spite of my badge, I've only been a member here since early 2017, "February 27, 2017" is when I joined a little over 2 years as of this post. I love this community the best for both forum and the extensive well kept database.
I think I added a few games to the database but I am not sure if any were ever duplicates, but I love to blog, I would have joined sooner. But when I ran a google search back in I think 2016 or 2015 all that came up was Retro Collect. I no longer go to that forum. When one day I could not log in for some reason, all I got was a message that said I have no permission to to access forum or site. Nobody warned me and, I think I was banned. I think. and I have a feeling that. One of the ignorant senor members on Retro Collect had something to do with that.
I got into a fight over an avatar that this guy didn't like.
when I ran another google search in 2017 for a video game collecting this forum. This was the first result. I am glad I left the retro collect forum. As far as I am concerned losing access to Retro Collect was a blessing from God and the rest of the VGCollect staff are wonderful here.
