oBryant I tend to agree with you on that for the time being. The other MK FB pages I've seen have not been that successful. Another thing to point out is, this site acquired about 1400 legitimate members between June 2006 and January 2009.
The vast majority are either players who only care about the gameplay itself, who care more about the gameplay than the aesthetics, or care enough about the gameplay to want to be here. Basically, very few purely casual MK fans come to this site, which was our intent from the beginning, and why we don't have a lot of hoopla and only report reasonably important news. Other sites can and will do that.
We scooped up most of the big users and serious players from all the various MK sites and forums that existed at the time we made it, which was maybe 150 to 200 players, to form a dedicate old school MK site and we gradually added more to it once XBL, PSN and DS players started joining as the respective games were released.
A FB group might be necessary for MK9 if it's good, because it will be popular. I would love to bring together the main sites, because Storms has a lot of energy and dedication for promotional value. We did that for years without even having a site to work with and scampered across everywhere and did what we could. Bringing together the experience, technical know-how, desire, and creativity from all the available MK sites would be ideal.
