Title: Well this sucks so far!
Post by: Smalleyster on August 01, 2011, 05:27:28 AM
I sure hope this new version gets up and running quickly.

I feel like we just got banned to the pointless forest!

They are smart not to associate this forum with their beautiful project.

I was going to post a similar topic in the Meta board. However my skin returned to normal upon previewing my post. Perhaps you should delete this now seeing as its in the wrong section and pretty pointless?

Now we can finally cut loose and say what we really think! ;)

They still haven't got the personal settings to work properly yet.

Besides everything here is pointless, that's why we have been banished to the pointless forest! 8^)

Ok so someone else bought the .com months ago. It's currently parked. You have to hope that the person who owns it is kind enough to forward here once he starts getting accidental traffic.

Why in the hell didn't they pick a name with both a .org and .com available for the forum?

I'm kinda mad about this. I own bitcoinhome and bitcoinuser .com and would gladly pick up the .org and donate it for a forum. Boo.

Damn! So it looks like I'll forever be the last mod that was appointed on the official Bitcoin forums...

so far the re-directs seem to work properly, but you are right.

Yeah, but if users change their links it makes us seem more active.
or...maybe I'm just being too anal.

If http://bitcoinforum.com/ is your forum, why not tweak it out?
Change up the style, add some mods (as well as moderators).

Do I smell change in the air? Sounds like the temp change was very bad. A few sites have been making horrible changes. Example: userstyles.org went to hell. Windows7forums went to hell, last year?. Start64.com went to hell last year, from the nice tan brown color to a creeping slow ugly GUI. A few others.

I hate change if it does not need fixing. :P

Pretty sad to pride yourself in something nobody cares about.

I predict failure.

Are you talking about Tweetforum or Bitcoinforum? I apologize for causing confusion but I was talking about TweetForum in my post not BitcoinForum. BitcoinForum is not mine...

LOL! Sorry for the confusion. I was talking about BitCoinForum.com.

I don't tweet. Signed up way back, but just don't "get it".

Tweet Forum , is just like this forum. Except it tweets all your posts automatically so you don't even have to learn Twitter to use it :). I made this for people just like yourself, please take a look when you get a chance. I am also paying people .25btc for every 100 posts, and will be doing many different community programs to supplement the community and invigorate conversation. You don't have to sign up for anything, just make a forum account and start posting ! Thank you!

I got a "not found" error for tweetforum just now. Paying for posts sounds interesting but it seems like it could attract a lot of abuse.

I just used it and it seems to be working fine.

The old version was using phpbb script that sucks to setup. Now it is using sfm that was very easy to setup.

Sorry to be a little late. I have found your topic only today after posting about http://bitcoinforum.com on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=54174.0

I hope you consider to signup to the new version.
