Compare RU to somewhere like 4-chan and the difference is immediately apparent. RU feels like a safe place, and I think that spirit carries over to the gaming for the most part as well.
I can't think of another site I have ever been apart of where the fellow members not only cheer one another on to be the best they can be in gaming, but also just hang out with one another. It's pretty cool. This is the only site I can think of where there are people on here I would one day actually want to meet in real life.
Anyway, I hope the new owners will help make TG a better place so the site can get back on its feet. No hard feelings there, but maybe it will be a lesson in what can happen when people in charge become corrupt. Hopefully, they can get better in the future.

I think you nailed it on the spot WB, RU really is a unique spot.
As someone that doesn't play games anymore here, I keep coming
back because of the awesome community here and talk about
basically anything because of this close group we have.
I'm glad I found RU, you guys here are some of the most awesome
people I've met, and that's what this site is really about, being
a gaming community.
