Question - With the upcoming fall line-up of Such hit shows like Heroes, Fringe, and all the others. Do you think gaming in general will drop or will it survive due to the heavy Holiday Line-up this year? What are your thoughts and how will you be handleing this?

questions

1) Have you guys thought about guest appearances on your show? maybe people from bungie or other sites like that? or community spotlight members?

2) Are there plans for the member points that we accrue from posting blogs and news articles and such?

3) How excited are you about the site reaching 15,000 members? as of this moment we are only 270 away

4) we have a friends list on the top right, were we can manually add our friends from xbox live to see there status, are there any plans to make that automatic instead of us manually adding all our friends?

5) How can i get the 2o2p podcast on my Zune?

6) last questions, in the photo albums section one thing that might deter people from using it is uploading each photo one by one, is there anyway you can make that so we can add photos by groups? there are a lot of times i have 80 pictures but only post 6 because i have to do them one by one. if i could select a group it would make me use the 2o2p photo album more. Thoughts on this

I may not be in the target audience, but for me, there's a bit too much swearing. Some explicit podcasts drop the occasional F-bomb, but I personally am just not a big fan of the "filler" swearing, such as, "so what effing game is effing coming out this effing week, code?" Obviously, that's exaggerated, but just making a point. I really liked the idea of this site having a podcast (or two), but with nearly 15 THOUSAND members, I don't suppose you can please everyone.

Yeah... Unfortunately it's hard to please everyone. I thought of also doing a "clean" version where I bleep the swears, but as it is I spent 4+ hours editing the podcast already. I look at it the same way I look at the site --- we're a site for older gamers, not necessarily more mature. Code and I work together on a day-to-day basis and we have a witty, swear-laden banter during normal time. That said, I can instantly turn off the swearing around my children or any other time where it's not called for, but it's really hard to do on the podcast. Truth be told, most of the swear tirades end up in the outtakes at the end of the show anyway, and what's left in the episode are just "colorful language". Maybe in the future if we decide to drop the background music, which will save me 3 hours of the post-production, then I'll also release a bleeped version.

Derek

PS - Even though this isn't really a "question", per se, it's going to count as an entry for you in the Flight Sim X contest.

What are your thoughts on the "draconian" Spore DRM?

Question #1) In light of recent events, what are some of the plans the site has to support the needs of larger and more active clans?

Question#2) Will 2o2p ever make it's presence known at the big conventions such as E3, PAX etc....and if so, how?

Question#3) With the new price drop for the 360, does this excuse Microsoft's shoddy workmanship, ie the red rings of death?

Question#4) What kind of setup does the Podcast crew utilize to create and edit the show? How difficult is it for novices and could you give us some tips?

Question#5) How do you feel about advertisements in games, such as billboards, Scorboards, and or our favorite heros using certain brand name items?

I really could only think of one question. I guess it would be a multi-part question

Do you think that Sony is still leading the PS3 on the path to faliure? (No price drops, Not many third-party exclusives,Still supporting PS2) Or do you feel now is the time for the PS3 to shine?
