Ok Everyone, Lets Make These Last 10 Months Count (August 2019)
Lets try and make these last months a great one for the site and the community as a whole. Its an understandable move from Google and well I love what this community has accomplished and all the frequent users that helped it grow. For now however lets keep that gaming related content flowing in. Anything about the shut down remains here, spamming the news will get your post removed!

70 comments:

  1. I recommend that any posts about the shutdown should be immediately removed since this is pinned.

  3. They’re not shutting down G+

  4. No account information was exposed. It was purely email addresses (easy to find anyway) and personal identification information (birthdays, gender, etc.) Nothing too compromising, so don't worry about your password. Still though... Rip in pieces.

  5. Sidney Rutledge I'm changing mines I tell yah what, safety first.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Sidney Rutledge But wait thats still personal information...What your saying is very contradictory, I think its a recommended step until Google says we dont have to, im recommending users do it just in case, theres nothing bad about doing this as a percaution.

  7. Welp. It was nice to be a part of one of largest gaming communities. Google choice sucks.

  9. Shadow 13342 proof???

    ReplyDelete
  10. Shadow 13342 Google blogs said it all. "We are shutting down Google+ for consumers"

    ReplyDelete
  11. Shadow 13342 "To give people a full opportunity to transition, we will implement this wind-down over a 10-month period, slated for completion by the end of next August. Over the coming months, we will provide consumers with additional information, including ways they can download and migrate their data."

  12. BlazeTorchXYZ • For enterprise consumers, no, but normal users, yes.

    ReplyDelete
  13. BlazeTorchXYZ • that's the official post from Google. I'm not sure about this Jan 24th info or what that's about but it's shutting down in August '19 according to Google

    ReplyDelete
  14. Guys calm down we still have 10 months.

  15. DJ Yeah overall Google didn't fix anything about this site, they let it become a mess around mid 2016 when porn spam and foreign spam starting becoming worst. I can't beleive im saying this but Googles first mistake was forcing comments through youtube and then expecting users to stick around, then the mobile app in 2017 started having so many glitches and bug and now 2018 the mobile app is unusable, awful uI AND security issues. sucks man

  16. It's better to consider one of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse

    I highly recommend a service running #Hubzilla, #Osada, or #Socialhome (or host it yourself).

  17. Nathaniel Clay seriously that's when it all went down hill. It's bullshit that my name has to be the same accross everything! I only had a fun name because of G+ and now, well I may as well just use my real name I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Pashha Theosifon Yeah it was a bad bussiness move overall. 2016 was the last good year tbh.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Nathaniel Clay yeah I didn't use it extensively before 2016 but it was much better

    ReplyDelete
  20. I mean the numbers are still low
    There just isn’t many people flocking to G+ and it’s just turning into a knockoff FB. But snobbier

    It’s just a random mess.. good things in it but just a mess

    ReplyDelete
  21. I only use G+ for this community as well as one for the NFL, so it won't impact me too much to see it go, but I was hoping Google was going to go in the other classic Google direction of "release something half baked, abandon it, then circle back later and make it great", but oh well.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Nathaniel Clay all i want is that Google does not shut down Google Plus!

  23. Thegaming Terminator544 welcome to the club

    ReplyDelete
  24. Thegaming Terminator544 same but I sorta saw the health of the site weakening over time. After the 2016 redesign they started having some awful site bugs and poor optimization, no one was maintaining the site for a long time, its even harder to moderate now because there's so many bot spam accounts and zombie accounts (new) that well it's depressing

    ReplyDelete
  25. I'll promote your discord friend! I'll share it all around!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Nathaniel Clay So terribletimetraveler helped me create a subreddit for our community and I was wondering if you could help us moderate and collaborate to help keep everyone together?

    ReplyDelete
  27. CryingWithRage sure, send me any information priviatly on discord please

    ReplyDelete
  28. Nathaniel Clay all i need is your reddit username

    ReplyDelete
  29. I will make you a mod and then you can make the rest of the mods in your community mods by inviting then also

    ReplyDelete
  30. DJ it’s really the nearest thing to G+

    ReplyDelete
  31. terribletimetraveler except the memes are slightly less stupid

    ReplyDelete
  32. CryingWithRage that and the site is taken more care of

    ReplyDelete
  33. I guess it really is an upgrade after all

    ReplyDelete
  34. DJ I think Nathaniel Clay may do it at some point for the community but here is the link

    https://www.reddit.com/r/PlusGames/

    ReplyDelete
  35. Nathaniel Clay thank you for collaborating! Hopefully it will help keep all the community members together in a subreddit.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Nathaniel Clay Could you invite the rest the mods also and make then mods also? Also could you at some point make an announcement for the community to join the subreddit alongside the discord server to keep everyone together?

    ReplyDelete
  37. CryingWithRage yeah I did just waiting for them to respond...not super easy.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Slayer 1 yep because Video Games and gaming are working together to build it up, soon it will be in a better state in the coming months

    ReplyDelete
  39. Nathaniel Clay only 48 people joined so far which is ridiculously small

    ReplyDelete
  40. CryingWithRage we still have a lot of time remaining, it'll improve

    ReplyDelete
  41. CryingWithRage Nathaniel Clay You know what else is ridiculously small?

    ReplyDelete
  42. CryingWithRage Nathaniel Clay Deez Nuts. Ha! Gotee!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Nathaniel Clay CryingWithRage Should we make a MeWe group as well?

    ReplyDelete
  44. Slayer 1 probably idk we are already trying to grow the reddit, Gaming (the owner) might decide that, but for now the remaining mods are just trying to find a new home. (Basiaclly we are already building the Discord and Reddit page, alot of work behind the scenes)

    ReplyDelete
  45. Nathaniel Clay I think it's fine for you to start switching back to community events but also putting the link to the discord and reddit in the community event.

    ReplyDelete
  46. CryingWithRage I would but communication with the mods has been quiet, not many responces from them.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Nathaniel Clay aryfaza is a bot plz kill him.

    ReplyDelete
  48. CryingWithRage Hol' up. Let me get my slaygun, it's like a raygun, but better!

    ReplyDelete

  50. Thegaming Terminator544 What was it?

    ReplyDelete

  52. Is there any decision here on where (or whether) Gaming will move elsewhere?

    Is there another discussion post?

    I'm one of the Google+ Mass Migration mods, and we're looking to see what G+ communities are planning (or not), as well as compiling suggestions and information on alternatives, migration, etc. Owners/mods, and others might be interested if you've not yet seen this:

    Google+ Mass Migration

    ReplyDelete
  53. Joel Kolodziej Yes, we're definitely seeing that.

    Others are expressing some hesitation. And there's ample time yet.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Nathaniel Clay Oof, we gotta go over to MeWe it's the closest thing to G+ we have.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Slayer 1 pretty much, and we have a Reddit page as well, either or both are being built up
