What happened to the forums?

Postby tarbosaurus_geticus on Tue Nov 28, 2006 6:08 am

I know that this sounds stupid, and this topic should be deleted after a couple of weeks, but what happened to the forums??
for like 2 weeks there has been almost zero activity, in some categorys more than in others (serious disscusion and gaming especially )
There have been situations like these in the past but never this long. Sure i havem't been with phoenix for a long time but i still am asking myself if the forums are dead.

It's because we weren't accepting any new users. They are the ones who post to get active. Also it's because most of the existing users aren't following the rules and be active on IRC instead of the forums. If this keeps up, the Phoenix server won't be there for awhile until we get funds again. As you know most of the income to pay for the server are generated by forum ads.

So to all the Phoenix users: Join the forum, post new topics and click the ads!

I guess you meant to say that "most of the income to pay for the server are generated by forum ads"?
hm, i'm around pretty often, but often i don't have many ideas for new topics...
I guess I really could click more ads... i'll try to remember...

Computer games don't affect kids: I mean, if Pacman affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkend rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetative electronic music...

Thank you, that's at least what our users can do.

Right now i'm having these weeks a lot of tests and thesis at high school, so i don't have to much time for the forums, but i guess i'll be active after a couple of weeks.
