Gamespot, recently you released your plans for your website redesign to your users, via the following link.
http://www.gamespot.com/features/in-which-we-announce-some-pretty-big-changes-6413315/
By signing this petition, your users are saying that they do not approve of your addition by subtraction,
and want to see features returned. User created boards offer opportunities for many
side cultures that would otherwise have no place on your site. The Round Table
offers aspiring writers a place to improve their work, and many community efforts such
as System Wars Magazine and Pedal to the Metal rely on seperate boards for
planning and executing a great deal of compelling content.
Other changes, such as new limits to user signatures, name colours and lack of GIFs also serve
to limit the users of your site and destroy the sence of community that you've always done so well with.
We do love this community, many of us stay on the site soley for that reason. As the users, we do not
wish to lose the features that make the site unique. We hope you will take our wishes into consideration.
-Gamespot's users.
