This week @ IMAnub.com

What's happening around here...

This has been a week for errors! We just about got the spam issue covered, when our user system took a crash. Then we started addressing user issues, when email functions crashed out. After all that, there's not MUCH noticable difference to our site, but the foundation is way stronger and puts a TON less load on the servers. This will ensure that we can handle more traffic as we begin adding in the "attractive" features, and we're pretty stoked to get those rolled out. That said, our staff has been asking the question "How can we serve the e-sports community better?" We would love to get your thoughts on that question! Drop us a line at feedback@imanub.com

MOAR UPDATES!

We're rolling some quality updates...

August is a month of change. The forums are shaping up a little - its usually not ideal to recreate something that already exists, but a ground up solution will pay for itself in the longrun. We've been getting spammed a ton - so that's about to go away. =) User systems are getting some tweaks, and we've got a lot of updates to ensure that we're piping in fresh content to the site. We'll soon be adding some "live" feedback features - more on that soon! If you have any suggestion we'd love to hear them imanub@icombustion.com.

Calling All Game Enthusiasts...

We have a place just for you!

Since the beginning, Imanub has run under the impression that there aren't really MANY great websites out there when it comes to gaming. A few names definitely come to mind when you think of major sites: IGN, Gamespot, TeamLiquid, etc. While many people choose these sites as their source for all things game related, we believe that the industry hasn't REALLY seen someone go all out, and that the major sites tend to be good at a couple of very specified areas. Meanwhile, the gaming landscape is changing as e-sports and pro gaming begin to take a larger share of the spotlight and huge brands like Intel, AMD, MSI, etc sponsor players and tournaments. That said, we see this as a crucial time to make a difference in the way gaming content is delivered.

We know it's a huge claim to say that someone can do things better, and we don't expect that to happen in the next week or two. It takes good ideas, dedication, and the support of a community to move things forward and reform the gaming industry. We would love for you to join us in making this site a site for gamers everywhere! Really, the biggest support you can offer is your voice, because when you share your knowledge and opinions with our team or the community as a whole, you spark the change the we need to move forward.

As you likely noticed, we're still in Alpha as we work out the major kinks. Everything you see here was designed and developed in a day, and as time allows we hope to keep a steady pace forward in developing the community. If design, development, or writing is something you're into and you're interested in contributing to the community, we'd love to chat...shoot us a line -> imanub@icombustion.com
