ive been aware of this for some time.

the newest member we have that really participates (more than most you senior members) is DCM, seriously

weve lost.... so many already. toxxy. theres a prime example. he was sick of some crap earlier last month and his computer sucks, but i know people who stay 5 mins and forget the site.

if we can get something hot on the GO or ps3 scene or something revolutionary, then we have life once more. the sad thing is, we dont. most of us know little to nothing (exceptions are crait and DPM that i know of, speak up if you know stuf like them) about coding ANYTHING. i can barely do HTML and visual basic. i know little more then the pandora method and the chickhen method. im not smart enough! and for that, we are dying. without the true understanding of what we do and how it happens, we cant do anything noticable.

You're wrong and you will be proven so.

You sound kind of like a politician: promises and promises, but all I've read are words. However, I am holding you accountable for your statements, so I hope the site does happen to improve with your new "updates" and "ideas."

The thing is.. it's a general Gaming site now, and it should be looked at as such.. If the packgens aren't going to work anymore.. In my opinion remove them completely.. no-one uses them.

There's a lot of stuff that we just no longer need.

Yes, I hope you hold me accountable. We're working on things almost daily now. The site is being remade and our databases are being ported over. That isn't what is holding us back though. Graphical user interface as well as custom coding (needed for our features, i.e. downloads) needs to be redone and done in a more efficient and secure manner. There is a version of the site that exists right now in which you can login and what-not but it's pretty far from releasing into a beta stage. Monkeymaximus has been working since he got back from Vietnam on the features we plan to port over.

@ Puncharger ~ Yes, I agree with certain features being removed. That's absolutely correct, and we plan to remove some. The game saves will be taken down and unless we improve upon what we have already, we may or may not bring them back. The Brew Packs will most likely be taken down, yet may reappear when we have a more sufficient way of updating them - hopefully automatically via RSS so that they're easier to keep up-to-date.

Later on, we're going to have skins for the forum that users can choose to use, such as blue, red, green and so on, and I'm really hoping we'll also add seasonal defaults like a Christmas theme, Halloween theme etc. If our configuration allows, we'll also look into the possibility of adding an arcade where the highest scores from the forum will be accessed - possibly even earning a reward like a custom title if you currently hold the record in 'X' game.

I have a vision for this site, as do the rest of the staff, and we're going to provide a more enjoyable experience. My goal is to never compete with another site. I don't want to ever be compared to other forums. Most forums do not share the same goal that I share. My only goal is to provide support for those that need it and to provide that support in a fast and responsive manner - to help everyone. We, so far, have held true to that legacy and as our community here continues to grow, there's only better things on the horizon for the website. Doing these updates may take some time, but monkeymaximus has told me of his goal to have everything switched over, and it's not too far away at all. I'm finding it hard to believe that we'll be able to do it as fast as he thinks we can, but a workable version of the site WILL BE FINISHED within the next 3 weeks, I'm just not sure if we'll be wanting to throw it on live right then and there or not, since we should take some time for testing as well.

Sounds great.

Can't wait to be the title Holder for ODST.

I've got to be honest, I'm seeing very little change here DPM, a lot of stuff is still broken,
I think it's best off to just switch to phpBB3 and let the problems solve themselves.

Yeah, you're seeing very little change because we haven't changed anything aside from purposely breaking site features for the better of the site's security. I've personally navigated the network pages once mirrored, but it's a LITTLE bit harder than just porting and praying. It doesn't help that monkeymaximus has been doing some travels lately either.

We'll see what happens then.

Nothing usually does.
This forum is lead by two complete morons who promise things which they aren't capable of doing,
and the only new visitors we get are bots.

Goodbye pspbrew, was nice while we actually once had a bit of intelligence on the administration.

WTF is your problem Mailas? Why did you even bother bringing your sorry donkey back to the forums? You made one weak donkey attempt to destroy the forums, get banned for a while, and since you've been back all you've done is b**ch about this and that without making one contribution to the site. Not one. Just a bunch of smartass comments in general chat. You think you're so much more awesome than everyone when in reality you're no more than some whiny donkey forum troll.

Why don't you just grow the f**k up and leave instead of doing this passive aggressive sh*t? If you want change, f**kin do something. Start helping Nik with php coding. Do some graphics for the site. Do something other than bleed out of your vagina.

Anyway BOT - Are we still keeping all the forums like PSP hacks or Xbox Hacks and the forums like that?

They aren't used =/

Posted: **Sat May 01, 2010 12:57 am**

Yeah, we could move all the useful posts into an FAQ section, and make them burn in hell...

e.g PSP HACKS --> PSP FAQ
XBOX HACKS --> XBOX FAQ

Posted: **Sat May 01, 2010 10:07 am**

A forum consolidation is going to take effect, I'm just not sure of the format yet.
