How old is bm, and some ideas

[Serathas BM Veteran]

i thought i wrote this earlier, weird, but yeah, i wonder how old this site is, and if you somewhat can post some pics to show it's hostory, like different themes on different versions of the site, etc

and, i also had this idea that we could both add new forumranks to bring up the activity and maybe even upgrade to phpbb3, which i can help you with, as i did it for both dark gfx, and cov, my swgemu guild (or well, the swgemu guild which im joining as soon as the emu hits 1.0, which is about by the end of the year, when they will move the objects to the new, better db, which will fix most of the bugs we are currently facing, but yeah, hopefully, they will also add the servers that have been planned, or at least they may set them up, etc and add them as soon as possible)

(for those who don't know, swgemu is a private classic server emulator written from the base code, by the devs, as most people didn't like first the cu, which is the supposed combat upgrade in old swg, and then the nge, which is the new game enhancement, by other words, the current game, or nge 2.0, as some of the people still playing it calls it, of star wars galaxies, the mmorpg that was almost beating wow in the number of players, etc back in 2005, until the devs started crapping the game, by nerfing classes, removing classes, etc... only good thing they did with nge and cu is the new content, other than that, they just made it to a wow clone instead of a unique mmorpg that it was, with 30+ classes, jedi had to be unlocked, which took months, for the elite players, and years for us normal people, just read it on wikipedia, or ask an swg oldie, while i have played swg since 2005, which is right before they changed from cu to nge, i only got to play the 10 days trial on cu, and not all that time, still, even i noticed that the game had been horribly changed, that's when i met some of the people in an pre-cu guild, which consisted of mostly scandinavian people, who later invited me to this swgemu guild, cov, aka chosen of valhall)[/off-topic]

How would forum ranks promote activity?
I've been trying to get some of my friends who also use photoshop to sign up on the forums but they're just too lazy to do it:p
Off Topic: SWGEmu? Do you know Ramsey?

- BM turned 4 in September. viewtopic.php?f=15&t=8434
- BM is already running on phpBB3.
- You should be able to view old versions of the site using The Internet Archive, but it's not working for me at the moment. http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://blu ... xurst.com/

Not sure, but i think it may get people to start posting some more, if they knew that there were more forumranks

I've tried the same, but they just never seem to sign-up, lol.
Wow, I was looking through those archives driv, saw like 5 gallery posts in one day. I remember back then. Good times.

This doesn't have anything to do with the topic but it deals with the subject matter of activity in a way.

In my opinion their shouldn't be a signature of the week anymore. It should be changed to perhaps Artwork of the Month or something on that order. Instead of it being only signatures it basically should be anything that has to do with Photoshop or an image editing software. Any type of image that has been taken/created by someone. My idea about changing it to monthly instead of weekly is obvious. There isn't enough people active in one time frame to really do a meaningful SotW. Many people have gotten out of creating signatures anyway. Thats just my two cents though!
