Quarlow, we understand your frustration. However, The Verge has a high-quality staff full of talented writers, developers and designers. Advertising is our lifeblood and without it, we would not be able to provide such an amazing array of content every day. There is give and take with everything in life, and ads are one of them. We understand your position but we disagree vehemently that the site’s quality has gone downhill – just one look at the features section should be more than enough to convince you otherwise.
I think it’s clear that we do accept constructive criticism, but a lot of this thread is not particularly constructive. Rest assured we take these thoughts into consideration as the sales and advertising teams develop new advertising campaigns.
Hey, Polygon has an “All News” hub, but it doesn’t encompass all the stories on the site in a chronological order — just news. We did just launch a pretty cool sidebar though that shows stories in chronological order (sorted by their hub).
I believe he shared the answer because that is the official answer from the EIC of the site. Calling it tripe and talking down about the site is not a good way to voice your concerns effectively.
