UPDATE: 2nd March 2015 - SSL certificate on the domain

SSL certificate obtained for peercointalk.org site now served up through https :) https://www.peercointalk.org/

UPDATE: 24th February 2015 - New Theme and Forum redesign at Peercointalk.org and Primecointalk.org!!

Hey all I am proud to announce that the official Peercoin Forum here (http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php) has its own new Peercoin Theme that you should be viewing as it has been set as the forum default.

A lot of hard work has gone into this (shout out to Sentinelrv for all his help in particular) and we hope you like what you see :) We have spent time bringing the theme from peercoin.net with the header nav and drop down links and the matching logo style.  The colours have been selected and matched as well so all the greens, greys and black/greys match on the hex codes.

Obviously we are open to suggestions for improvements, things you like / dislike etc and what would be really useful is if you can post in here or this thread http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=3966 with screenshots of any bugs or unusual behaviour you see or experience on the forum.

Two known bugs for now:
The triangle drop down in the header should turn green when hovered over
The submenus in the forum have a slight excess boarder of green that is highlighted by the hover over being different.

I also plan to bring a "Late Night Peercoin" Theme in as well that will be based off this new theme but with much darker colours throughout so it is easy on the eyes when viewing late at night.

Now to bring all the peercointalk services in line... (see you all in a few weeks!)

Any donations are greatly appreciated for this work can be made through the peer4commit project here

or directly to me via the addresses in my signature.

Many thanks and enjoy :)

UPDATE: 14th July 2013 - PeerCointalk.org welcomes Primecointalk.org!!

Peercointalk.org and Primecointalk.org (http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?action=refferals;refferedby=1)

For some time now I have been running PPcointalk.org, the home for all PPC related issues to be discussed. We have had many problems over the 9 months or so that I have been running the site, but I am pleased to say that all of these issues have been resolved and we now have a great community of over 2000 genuine users all interested and contributing to PPC.

SunnyKing the developer of PPC is an active member on the forum which was a massive boost to the forum, and the forum has also brought together supporters of PPC to run a fund-raising campaign for professional logo design.  Special mention to Sentinelrv for organizing us all and the logo competition.  Final Logo has been chosen and more can be read here http://www.ppcointalk.org/index.php?topic=345
 
With the release of Primecoin (also developed by SunnyKing) I was keen to see if the forum wanted to have sections for this coin added.  There was an overwhelming majority of people who wanted to welcome the XPM Primecoin users to the forum, and today it was even stated by SunnyKing himself "Nice! Yes I would love to see more xpm supporters hang out here." (http://www.ppcointalk.org/index.php?topic=355.msg2322#msg2322)

So on that note I bought up Primecointalk.org / .com and have pointed it at the forum. All XPM Primecoin users are most welcome to come and join the forum and see what is going on in the community that recognises developers of coins that actually add something more to the original bitcoin code :)

UPDATE: 11th May 2013 - Images, avatars and smilies now work. Activation by email fully working now to

I have resolved all the issues raised by the forum members on Peercointalk.org, the main one being that new users were not receiving activation emails from the site.  I have fixed and tested this, and am now about to resend out all the activation email requests again so if you signed up please look out for one and sorry for the inconvenience.

UPDATE: 29th April 2013 - Successful migration to new server :D

Just to let u all know ppcointalk.org (http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?action=refferals;refferedby=1) is now on a new faster server :) i can also upgrade this server with more ram should the site still be slow but seems better already :)

No data has been lost as far as I can see... i took a backup of the old site and will do a compare with the final DB on the old server to see if anything is missing... or please let me know.

Happy posting and discussing PPCoin :D i should be able to spend some time answering some questions on there now that i have the server sorted.

Hello all,

I have recently added a few spam filter features to http://ppcointalk.org as it was getting spammed too much for me to keep up with manual deleting of posts about Pay-Day-Loans and other such spam.  Seem to have stopped most now, but just wanted to ask in here if anyone has any problems logging in or features on the site then please let me know your issues / suggestions etc and i'll see what I can do :)

I recently updated the list of PPC sites http://ppcointalk.org/index.php?q=node/7 (http://ppcointalk.org/index.php?q=node/7) again if I have missed any or if sites are down, or back up then let me know... I missed that https://vircurex.com had added PPC to their exchange!!

Many thanks

FuzzyBear

I'm put off by the design. Not because it's bad, because it's far enough different from here and the litecoin forums lol. I don't know how common that initial first reaction is, and I'm not suggesting you change your design because of it either. It seems like it's a marketing psychology thing, if your colours and layout are closer to the more popular, older forums, it might attract more users.

Ok i'm getting spammed a LOT on this site :(

so much that its kinda hard to keep up with the deletes of all the spam...

I'm upgrading the drupal install, and have included various spam detection modules and captcha to see if this makes a difference.. but i done this in the past and they still find a way round :(

as per a few suggestions I may be switching to a more familiar forum provider (one like here on bitcointalk.org) but will probably run both side by side for a while to make the transition.... this will mean people will need to re-register on the new site once it is up... I'll let you know when this is done.... too much on my plate atm... and its not food :(

FuzzyBear

Solution would be to expand your user base. Try to find people willing to be mods. No I am not interested.

cool yeah ty for the suggestion... i'll see if anyone is interested...

please post here if you are interested in being a mod on ppcointalk.org

Ok site back up, and I found a much easier way of managing the content on the site and mass deleting posts so should be able to keep on top of it better now.... well see what the spam throws at me over the next few weeks...

have fun with your PPCoins :)

New site is nearly there :)
http://new.ppcointalk.org

Good job fuzzy!

Just to say we are on a new and improved server :D

Nice! Although seems to be getting some weird spams

ok minimal spam should get through as requires activation by email, and the emails are actually being sent now!! :)

Many thanks and I hope to see you all there :)

FuzzyBear

Thanks for adding Primecoin to the forum. Everyone interested in Primecoin or Peercoin is welcome to join!

Was a pleasure and thank you for being such a good active member of the community

Everyone reading this should head over and sign up! We are a quickly growing and very friendly community looking for more PPC and XPM supporters  :)

Don't forget there a PPC giveaway there and soon an XPM giveaway!!

I have added a referral program to the site as well so I can keep track of users who bring in more users,

I am thinking of running a reward scheme as well (say you refer 10 people to the site that all make at least 2 posts) and i'll pay you 5 PPC? Need to see what happens with spam and bots etc so let me test out a few things... announcement referral program reward being active will be made on the forum.

Referral link is under you profile section and link looks like
