  1. Been away from forums for while. I still visit certain forums from time to time. Haven't run one in a long time. I am thinking about starting one. I'm researching topics. I am a geek so anything tech would work. When I was involved in forums there were no reddit or facebook. To make a forum work in the day of reddit and facebook what does an admin need to do?
  2. Makes sense. Might be a big hit for first timers.
  3. Welcome. Coding is fun, but, you know that.
  4. Watched this happen on TV. Scary to see probably worse to be in.
  5. Do you have a demo online? Be good to see in action.
  6. I am a surfer too. Don't surf as much as before.
  7. Good idea for a forum. I'm sure iy will get used.
  8. That's a good read. Niche forums will always be around. You can't use facebook for specific topics.
  9. I used vbulletin. It was the best. Too bad corp greed did it in.
  10. Geek checking in! Not as active as I once was. RL takes its toll.
  11. Looks like it's done. Good job.
  12. Hi cap! Good to meet you.
  13. I use a similar guide when I look for moderators. Greta infor for sure.
  14. Geek

    Hobbies

    I race cars, Drag race. Me and my brother. Have a 54 Chevy pro stock. More show then go these days.
  15. You should reach out to the users. Send an email announcing the site is open. Couldn't hurt.
  16. I happened to be cleaning out old stuff in my bookmarks and clicked on a link to here. Surprise when it worked. Nice to see it back.
  17. Moderators are the soul of any forum. Hard to find good ones.
  18. All ths!!!!. I sure don't miss the days of fixing stuff.
  19. When I sold my forum vbulletin was still king. xenForo didn't exist. In fact IPB and vbulletin were it. Strange how things change. Correct if I'm wrong. Wasn't this forum on IB when it opened?
  20. A little late. Thanks for the welcome. I'm not very active online. I was cleaning out old links and to mmy surprise this one worked.
  21. I was a newbie at one time as we all were. Now I am a mentor when time allows. Don't relly have much time for forums.
  22. I'm first. Who's next? Last one buys the beer.
  23. I was messing around learning HTML and one day I created a simple 3 page site. I then started to write up tutorials on what I learned and how I learned. I did the same thing when I was learning to code. People started to ask me questions in email. I decided to install phpBB so that the questions could be asked there. The forum became popular and as always happens someone came along and wanted to buy it. I sodl it and regret I did. Anyway how did you get started in the forum biz?
  24. I'm a ex-forum owner. Used to own a popular webmaster forum. Sold it a few months ago. I am looking to get back in the scene. I hope to be of some help to the new people that join.
