ORIGIN STORY
When the closure of a local center in 2013 left a group of gamers without a central space to game. One of the senior local gamers set up a gaming server and began hosting LAN parties. Starting with fewer than 60 members the community grew to over 200 in less than a year. As the online community grew demand for hardware, servers, and other services also increased. To facilitate this GENERAL GAMING was set up as a Facebook page in October 2015 and by April 2016 had more than 2000 page likes, 400 Twitter followers and two servers operating at safe capacity.
As the community, grew so did demand for hardware, servers, and other services. To facilitate this GENERAL GAMING was set up initially as a Facebook page in October 2015. By April 2016 had more than 2000 page likes, 400 Twitter followers and two servers operating at full capacity.
In April 2016 we launched General Gaming v1, a basic landing page with links to our social media platforms. The team thought it would be another 12 months before we would need to upgrade. However, the community continued to grow beyond our projections and to meet these demands we added an Online Store, a community content gallery to name a few. These were bolted onto the old page, which began to slow down and was basic.
The GENERAL GAMING v2.0 OFFICIAL WEBSITE and Community Blogger will be deployed over the next few months. Stay tuned.
