What Is The Point!

What is the point of having a news letter when the last one is over 12 months old and the content is pritty much defunct especially the ToRK piece as the website is dead!

I for one get more from this site than from anything they could ever put into a news letter. I think for active members, a newsletter will have verly little, if any, new news.

However, I like the effort and it will only get better.

We've been doing them fairly regularly of late. They might not be earth shattering but I'm pretty sure they've some worth. :)

Is there any chance that the Newsletter section could be updated to include more recent online copies?

I find them interesting/informative even though I visit here (forums) daily. I bookmark the My Garage page and don't often notice if the homepage at GG changes - I sometimes miss even important announcements.

I'm not sure how often "fairly regularly" is as I've only gotten 2 or 3 in the past 9 months. I don't have a spam filter so I doubt I deleted it by accident, but who knows - I've done sillier things.

Thanks for the feedback. We're working to get our GG Developer Newsletter off regularly and will look at archiving it on the site. Currently the GameMechanic is a community driven newsletter - that GG tries to facilitate.

We actually have tried to keep our email communications very targeted and only to those who sign-up. We're a bit hyper about not ending up in anyones 'spam' filter.
