The Future of the TF2 GJ Community.

Hello,

As some of you might have noticed, I haven't been around on Game Jolt a lot anymore. I have moved on to other things and simply just don't have the time or the willpower to keep this community going. As such, I have come to the hard decision to move on from Game Jolt and this community entirely.

Over the past 7 years, I have loved every second being here maintaining this community on Game Jolt. I have had my ups and downs on Game Jolt as a platform over the years but they are times I will still always remember fondly. From the first member... to the 16,000th member, even making it to the front page of Game Jolt one time. Every one of you holds a special place in my heart.

I would love to thank every single one of you for getting me and my community where we stand today. And I hope that all of you will keep this community going for another 7 years. But before I can pass the torch, I need to do a little housekeeping.

Who are you?

Hi, I am TheCrafters001, but you may call me Craft. I joined Game Jolt over 8 years ago as of the time of writing this, on April 1st, 2018. I joined Game Jolt for the big fan game community it had back then, a year before Game Jolt even became a social media platform... and before GJ even had a Dark Mode.... Scary times...

Why are you leaving?

I have moved on. Game Jolt will always hold a special place in my heart and I always do come back to it from time to time, but at the current rate of the other stuff I want to do, it makes the community unmaintainable for me.

Who is taking over?

To be determined. I need to find someone suitable to take over the community. If you are a Game Jolt Creator or someone who has a lot of experience owning and maintaining Game Jolt communities, send me a friend request on Game Jolt. I'll try to respond the best I can.

Why is there so little activity on your profile?

Lack of time or energy. And, as I have said, I have moved on.

What about the current mod team?

I would like to thank them all for what they have done. However I cannot decide what the new owners of the community will do.

What does this mean for me?

I want to try my best to make sure the transition goes smoothly. However I cannot guarantee that all will be the same here.

What does that mean for this website?

For now, as long as I am the owner of the community, this site will remain up. However, soon after the community is handed over to the new owner, this site will be taken down.

I encourage people to ask questions if you are confused in the comments. I will try to get to them as best as I can.
