Anybody care to sum up what has happened in the last eight months? :lol:
Sorry, I've been quite busy - almost gone. But I'd like to hang around a little bit now that my stuff is kinda more settled. Or something.
So cheers, old friends, and hello, newcomers
Hahaha I feel like a newbie again
Hey Nathan, good to see you still around matey
This site is a post-apocalyptic wasteland at the moment.. it's only recently come back online, but no one lives here anymore. In fact, I don't even know where the main QB hangout is now, or if there is one at all..
As for the last 8 months - hey I'd like to know too, I haven't been around much either
Yeah it got pretty crazy at the end there. Censorship to anyone who disagreed with the closing of the forum, deletion of posts, mudslinging in the final days (hey I had to join in
), then the forum was, as promised, totally locked. I honestly have no clue why it's open now, or when it emerged from its 'shut down' state.
Hey guys, it's great to have the forum back, and it's real nostalgic to see the names of you fine friends again.
Yeah, it would be nice to know what's going on now, but most importantly, I hope it lasts for a good long while.
Best regards..... Moneo
Hey, how are you man?
I don't think there is a qb hangout anymore, they all got killed at about the same time.
Well it looks like the site is back up for the forseeable future and SumoJo has left the building.. got this post on my forum from wildcard:
Quote:I've got ownership back of QBN from SumoJo, long story, but QBN is staying up even if not active; if not just for the archives of posts and hosted sites.
Hi once again! Yes SumoJo transferred the site back to me, I've not really kept up too much with whats been happening but didn't want to see the site be locked down or its resources lost. No real changes planned except to sort out the spam bot problems (currently solved by disabled registrations) and rework the main page to show the tutorals/resources better for those who wish to use them.

This is good news. I'll direct you to a mod so you can allow registration again. It at least worked for me. I don't need a CAPTCHA anymore because of this. Of course, you need to set it up right or it won't work properly:

To see how I set it up to stop spambot registrations see
http://www.osfree.org/forum and click on the register option. Note the placement and the use of text that isn't part of the registration code.
Because of several other sites I must administrate, I will not persuit to administrate or moderate qbasicnews as I contacted you with before.
