Big Changes about to Happen..!

[legoman]

jus wondrin,
how does ep maintain itself?
I mean $ would be needed so where does the money come from?
there are a lot of large downloads so it couldn't be so cheap.

[Skinner8]

It's not like it's all going to be down for several months...

[Hijuda]

The money comes from advertising, I believe.

[KnightofNachos]

Will there be marquee?

[legoman]

that's a lot of money 4 just a few ads.

[Roux!]

Will there be marquee?

Seconded.

Thirdly, we're going to change to a portal system (vb-based) which will allow our members to write articles and publish them on the forum homepage, much like vbulletin.org or sitepoint.com.

This point intrigues me... Could you explain a little bit more...?

What will change visually? will everything look exactly the same? or will there be suprises

Mind awnsering that?

[McGuinty]

Yeah I have a question, when is Hangman gonna be banned? He tried to touch my swimsuit area, that's no good for a mod!

Hi Ton, when did you get back?

Yah, ton will be banned for being a surfer bogan.

I sure wish I could rep you for that.

I like the sound of all this, lately the forums have been a little slow for me. I am also curious about this posting articles thing. I suppose a requirement is that one has something interesting to write about.

On a sidenote, I have decided to write a letter or something to my school paper about the racist scrawlings/obscene transsexual drawings in the bathroom that our (male) denture patients use. The last straw was today finding human feces slathered on the wall of one of the toilet stalls, in the shape of male genitalia, no less. It's not acceptable, and most importantly just plain disgusting.

[Ahkei]

Seconded.

AFAIK, It's liek a thread, that you can post in normally,a nd when you post, it puts it on the front page of the site. Hence: Portal.

Front page of the forums site, not the main site, correct?

No...

I'm pretty sure it puts it on the site.

[Paladin_Hammer]

My forums... moved ~tears~. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This place is all I have! Without the forums... I'll just be another computer virus, longing to humanize myself. Without these forums part of me will die!


Wait, will there be punch at the new server? I can deal with the loss,... if there's punch.

[McGuinty]

No...

I'm pretty sure it puts it on the site.

Oh. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing at this juncture. I will have to see it in action first.

And we needed to know that...Because...?

Because I'm pissed about it and I felt like venting. Sorry, I try not to do that very much.

Punch AND pie. Lucky you. (No promises)
