Well that's that. I just spent the last 4 hours going through the archives and moving every news post to DPS 2.0. Which is basically WordPress skinned to the DPS flavor. Give or take a few minor things, I think it's a great thing overall.
Pros:
Multiple people can update DPS!
Smaller, easier-to-swallow updates of the emotastic state of video games.
Categories to help categorize updates with.
Comments can be commented.
Cons:
Still not much content on the site, besides the forums and the wiki.
I got rid of the scrolling news box.
Still have no idea what RSS is.
I have a few reasons for moving the main site to "winners.dps.com" instead of simply "dps.com". But they are all wimpy and I'm a fairly lazy person. I mean, hell, it took like... 8 hours to do all this. 3 hours to skin. 1 hour to set up the domain, configure the WP and other technical things like that. Today was 3 hours building a full archive of every update DPS has ever had. The final hour went to photoshopping new banners and stuff like that. And writing this.
