Wow that is a serious bummer.
GameAmp was the best of the best and I am really sad to hear they are gone.
GameAmp covered so many games and employed so many wonderful people, it was in my opinion the best site of it's kind on the web and I know that I will miss it.
I remember back when Factions came out and everyone was angry because it was so, so, so, very, very, very, very, bad , all the "official elite fan forums" like this one, were blocking posts that had anything to do with Factions, and threatening to ban anyone that spoke anything that they didn't like; but not GameAmp. They created a Forum called the "Factions Rage" Forum and they let people speak what was on thier mind.
They did the same thing when Gina Buenoberas was named CR, a lot of people had things to say and the "official sites" censored everything while GameAmp simply contained the stuff in it's own forum. The same was true with the Loot scaling and ursan blessing issues.
We live in a time where companies no longer have to have any kind of integrity and the ideas, views and thoughts of people are easily censored and ignored.
GameAMP had integrity. GameAmp had both the courage and the intestinal fortitude to create an environment where people could communicate without censorship.
This is a monumental loss for all of us.
The virtual streeta of virtual heaven are too crowded with virtual angels tonight.
Rest in peace and honor GameAmp. You are missed ; more than you know.
