JJR out?

Actually fury,
I'm thinking of putting up a board just for the
sole purpose of other boards to link to for people
to bookmark in case of an outage on thier board.
I'm conversing with 4 other board owners about
the prospect now.
The way it would work is,
The board remains closed unless one of the Owner/members
needs it if thier board is down. Once thier board is back up
it closes down again.
Right now I'm working on a universal database (mysql) that
would be easily integrated into the main database, once
the original forum is back up.

I'm still working on the bandwidth, space, and other needs
for this "Back Forum" .;)
I still got quite a few other things to hash out too.?(
 
You mean like a database that can be imported into another one afterwards? Sounds like too much work. I don't think anyone would really miss the couple hundred (at the most) posts that would happen during the downtimes (there's also the issues of the post ID's and such, they'd interfere with the ones on the original board)), and if they post anything they want to save and post again, or if a really good thread happens on the downtime board, there's always the Save as function in most browsers, or the print thread function in most boards.
 
yeah, justin's board being down was what pushed me into joining here. i've been wanting to for a while, because some of you once posted there, and i missed you when you lefted :(
but when i found justin's board went down, the first thing i did was come here, and sure enough, i found this thread, and joined to respond. i like it here :)
 
starting a new one is a great idea. why not just leave it up all the time? it might even get some new members.

I've already got 2.
One is probably not your style. (mostly little old ladies)
and the other one is a hidden forum I give a link to for my
cutomers I do web sites and graphical design for.

Too much maintance for another, without some help.
 
Well... once these sites here go onto their own server, we'll surely never go down except to upgrade. So we can just use OTC as the downtime board :D
 
I like JJR's because nobody over there tells me to mind my own business when I'm trying to help out and nobody calls me a retard. I'd like to see JJR's return.
 
Gee, I would think someone who doesn't care about internet forums wouldn't be affected so much by words posted on them. But maybe I'm just too idealistic.
 
I called him a tard. Apparently that bugs him more than pointing out he's an ass :D

I believe this is between Q and I.

As for my comment about being told to mind my own business, Postcode told me that at his board yesterday concerning something. The guy has three people that take an interest in his board, one of them even spams this board to try to drum up business for him and he responds by telling the guy to mind his own business. I promptly deleted my password and bookmark for the site. Now, he's got two people: him and Mikey. He can tell Mikey to mind his own business and be there by himself.:headbang:

I believe when two children start fighting someone has to interfere and stop or at least postpone the fight, so the same applies to two people acting like children. But that's just my opinion.
 
I don't agree. I think that Q and I can resolve this on our own. Let's say you think you need to do something to halt it. What will happen? Q will go right on not liking s4 and s4 will go right on being pissed off at Q. Instead, if Q and s4 clear the air then they will not have anything left to bicker about.

Basically all we are bickering over is the use of the words ass and tard. It's not like it's WWIII or anything, and it is not out of control. It's just a minor exchange between two people that have talked on the web for a long time that used to be friends, btw. That's all it is.
 
Neither of you have to act like children doing it though. If it's none of anyone else's business, take it to PM. There, you are more than welcome to duke it out any way you like. You can even battle each other with used condoms filled with shit for all I care. :headbang:
 
I believe that it is just about over if I am not mistaken. I don't think either of really wants to duke it out any further. Myself, I'm surfing all these cool websites looking at computer info and don't have any interest in spending the whole day on bickering over a word or two.
 
Basically, in however long I've been away (I think about two weeks now, I miss my old, lazy, 'do nothing but OTC during the day' life), I haven't missed much, right? :D
