What?

Submitting a story about an old website on your favorite retro-game can get you accepted? I have gone about this completely the wrong way!

The incompetent mods strike again. This should have been +5 insightful or a combination of insightful/funny by now because he's absolutely right. A fan site that has been around for years gets picked as a topic of the day? If this was the criteria for a submission, we'd have tens of thousands of fan sites getting /. headlines every month.

That's not to say that the mentioned web site is not of particular value; but considering that this is a site that touts "News for Nerds", that also assumes that nerds know how to use search engines for fan sites that have been around for a long time. And this is not news particularly when you consider that the first three letters of "news" is "new", which this web site is not.

Karma be damned in this particular instance. I've learned that many times negative moderation means that the poster is right but the mods just don't like the fact that the poster was right.
