Hey, y'all... yea it's been a while. I'm not on the pc as much as I used to be.

Got to bake 18 dozen cookies tomorrow... come on over and help! Getting ready for Christmas is a lot of work if you give food gifts. There's 10 pounds of fudge ready now.

What's new around here that I didn't notice yet?

Love that leather thing!!

Red Squirrel - Dec-18-2007 server time
Hey Wren its been ages, how are ya?

Wren - Dec-18-2007 server time
Thanks Ycontrol, that may come in handy since I only have local stations in the pc room. dancingbanada.gif

YControl - Dec-18-2007 server time
On another note I discovered a wonderful little website tonight.

freetvonline.com

Check it out if ya don't know it.

YControl - Dec-18-2007 server time
I like to drop in and bump this thread every once in awhile..."bump" is that the right word? Seems wrong.
Thx for the email Red. I keep this forum bookmarked but I always forget about my bookmarks...lol.

What is this "Age of Valor"? I'm curious.


edit:
Ok I have read about it on the site. I'm gonna try to download UO and install it. Not sure if it'll take cuz I'm addicted to wow...so...imo those are big shoes to fill.

YControl - Dec-19-2006 server time
Always a "Liquid Nitrogen Blaster" never a bride.....uh...wait....nevermind.

We have a Prime Minister?

I suspected you guys had a leader, but it was just a hunch until now laugh.gif

At least our guy is known worldwide... for being a total dope

YControl - May-23-2006 server time
Yeah I was kidin'. I don't follow much either though. My dad says politicians are all crooked.

Red Squirrel - May-23-2006 server time
Yeah Jean Chretien. tongue.gif j/k That harper dude now. He scared me at first, but he seems ok so far, but I dont follow politics enough to really know.

YControl - May-23-2006 server time
We have a Prime Minister?
laugh.gif

Red Squirrel - May-23-2006 server time
Yeah it is odd actually since the queen does not really do anything having to do with Canada, but yet she is more famous then the prime minister. laugh.gif

YControl - May-23-2006 server time
Tradition I guess.

Or maybe you're not.

You think? tongue.gif

Odd how you guys celebrate Queen Victoria... I think Washington's Birthday may be a holiday, but I don't remember ever getting school off for that...

YControl - May-23-2006 server time
"May run"? That's what they call it? My girlfriend was telling me that this was the weekend when everyone goes camping, I didn't know that.

Red Squirrel - May-23-2006 server time
Yep. Also known as may run, since it's the first long weekend close to summer, so people tend to go camping, even though it's snowing out, or raining, or simply freezing temperature. laugh.gif

YControl - May-23-2006 server time
:|)
Well in Can Can it was Victoria day yesterday. Wait...you are Canadian too aren't you? Or maybe you're not.

Victoria Day (French: Fête de la Reine) is a Canadian Statutory Holiday celebrated on the Monday on or before May 24 in honour of both Queen Victoria's birthday and the current reigning Canadian Sovereign's birthday.

While Victoria Day is often thought of as a purely Canadian event, it is also celebrated in some parts of Scotland, particularly in Edinburgh and Dundee, where it is also a public holiday.

Hey Red! Hey Sin!
Happy Victoria Day!

And a Merry May 23rd to you too!



(...there's no such thing as Victoria Day, you must've just made that up! tongue.gif)

Out of sheer curiousity and boredom, I stopped by GeekHaven.net..

I can't understand how that Zombie of a site keeps going...

Lo YControl, haven't seen ya in a while.

lol yeah I thought here was bad. But it would help if the forum was available 24/7. tongue.gif half the time I check there it says it's not available.

And hiya Y! wave.gif

Wren - May-22-2006 server time
Not much to keep up with here. We're all kinda in and out.

I haven't been to the other forum in ages. em320.gif

Hey man long time no walkie talkie!
laugh.gif
Yeah I never come here enough. I go to The Anything Forums every day but I only come here about once every couple of months. It'[s sad.

But all of you guys seem to be doing just fine. I don't know how Red keeps the two boards so active.

Wren - May-22-2006 server time
Doing good here. wave.gif

Red's still jumping from tree to tree...you know how squirrels are. laugh.gif

Visit anytime, you might get lucky and catch someone here! roflmao.gif

YControl - May-22-2006 server time
I like to pop in once in a while and bump this thread up...I hope it doesn't make anyone mad...lol....sorry if it does.

How is everyone here?

YControl - Jan-10-2006 server time
A lot? Hmmm like probably more than I can generate.

Red Squirrel - Jan-10-2006 server time
Yeah but you do need quite a lot of traffic for it to be meaningfull. But every penny helps so why not try it. em320.gif

YControl - Jan-10-2006 server time
Red I know I've asked you this stuff probably a million times but I'm really thinking about using ads by google. It can be worth it right?

Red Squirrel - Aug-22-2005 server time
Yeah not bad. I'd like to see more forum activity, but hopefully it will come with time. And it's actually not too bad since usually summer is bad. Last summer I think we got like 2 posts that were not me. You'd think it would be more busy with people off and stuff, but it's actually the oposite.

YControl - Aug-22-2005 server time
So how is everything now? What's new?
Hey Red, I see this place is still going strong. I don't know how you manage both places. You get lots of traffic.

YControl - Jun-06-2005 server time
lol....yea math was definitely NOT my strong point. I liked history...I think mainly because I had an awesome history teacher that made it interesting.

Red Squirrel - Jun-02-2005 server time
Algebra itself isin't evil, it's all the things that revolve around that that are, such as... gee can't even remember what any of it is called. Oh yeah, factoring, that's an evil one. Common factoring is ok, but the rest is horrible, like difference of squares and difference of triangle and all that crap. Basically, all the stuff that makes my average go down by 20%.

YControl - Jun-02-2005 server time
Ewww!!! Algebra...that can't be good.

Pyr-O-Rgasm - May-24-2005 server time
Algebra is the coolest math. Yo! I learned my Algebra and left. laugh.gif

Triple6_wild - May-23-2005 server time
math and shop were the only things i passed in skewl so i kinda love it biglaugh.gif

Red Squirrel - May-22-2005 server time
I hate math too, well the complicated kind anyway, like logaridams and all that crap you'll never use.

YControl - May-22-2005 server time
No way man I suck at math. I wish I was better but I don't like to even think about math. Are you any good at math?

Triple6_wild - May-22-2005 server time
lol no good at math?

YControl - May-21-2005 server time
lol...like I said...they look complicated.

Triple6_wild - May-19-2005 server time
really thay may look a lil complicated but thay are basicly just math games lol

YControl - May-18-2005 server time
I checked into some of those games...they seem complicated.

Red Squirrel - May-18-2005 server time
Yeah I need to give out prizes and stuff, it might attract people. em320.gif

Like how to get forum activity? I've been trying that for a few years, and all my ideas dont work so you probably don't want to impliment them. Some involve months worth of coding. laugh.gif (ex: the cybervillage)


i hate to say it but the main reason thay probly dont work is cuz its somthing that doesnt last and is not addictive enuff

try somthing like this

www.drugrunners.net
www.mobfather.com
www.midnightchallenge.com
www.topshift.com

thats just racing and drug type tho but im sure if we thought up an awsome tech ralated game kinda like those and made it then with the money you make in the beta rounds would pay for the first real rounds prize like give away PC mod's n stuff to top 3 finishers

drugrunners is in round 3 beta now and have over 3000 members playing daily lol

to top it off thay have some members buying 100's of DRC (game credit) for a buck a cred lol like i got 14 bux in it real cash for 14 drc but some of the players there buy drc like its going outta style ... main thing here is thay keep the members cuz the members have to play everyday if thay wanna get to the top ..its sad cuz its just numbers yet still works lol

just a thought biglaugh.gif

There's nothing wrong with that is there?

ps:
Stop avoiding my forum help questions...lol...tell me your secrets.

Red Squirrel - May-17-2005 server time
Yeah if I would merge post count would be merged and all. I'd have to basically make this the "master" forum and AF secondary so when I combine, duplicate usernames would delete 1 account so this one would take priority, and post count of other account would be added. At first lot of stat-related stuff would be very fishy but after some time it would all fix itself.

The danger is if there happends to be somone at AF with the same username as someone here, but that they're both different people. But the ods of that are slim. To avoid it I'd probably do a member cleanup, like delete all the users who registered X days ago and have not posted. (but then our member count would go down to like 200 LOL)

YControl - May-17-2005 server time
Money Order....lol.

Merging the two forums sounds cool...would we also have our post count combined? lol.

I want to know how to get forum activity. How do you get people to a forum? And how do you get them posting?

Red Squirrel - May-17-2005 server time
Funny, today I went to pay my visa, I knew I owed about 50 bucks on it, but did not know the exact amount and it did not tell me at the bank machine so I just put 50 on it and when I got home, I noticed I got my bill. LOL So I now owe 6 bucks on my visa. Should I make a check or money order, hmmm. LOL

Red Squirrel - May-17-2005 server time
Yeah well the site itself is big, but I'm talking forum wise Iceteks is small. I'd like to see the type of activity here that AF used to have (and see it at AF too em320.gif)

I think I could arange that if I merged both forums, but then it would basically be removing AF since there's no other content, so that's why I backed off that idea when I had it in mind.

AF will also make a good test enviroment for SBBS. em320.gif
