03/03/2010 Just in case you hadn't noticed yet, the new site is still not up Transferring the domain name over to me is taking a lot longer than I thought it would. The new site is all setup and ready to roll... the only thing we're waiting on now is for the current host/registrar to email LMA the confirmation. Once we have that I can redirect the domain to the new site and go live... man this is taking long.
02/22/2010 Well it's 2am EST right now andI'm still awake, working on the site. I need to go to sleep soon, I need at least 6 hours of sleep or else I'll be cranky all day at work tomorrow. I've got some bad news though, there is no way the site is going to be able to launch today... sorry guys. There are a lot of little things that I need to sort out before we go live and I can't get much work done during the week (due to work among other things), at the very worst the site will go up by the weekend... but I doubt it will take that long. I'm thinking more mid week, like Wednesday or Thursday.
Here are a few hi-res screen shots to tide you over, got the site looking nice, only thing left to make is the site logo
Also don't forget that you can still login and use the Chatbox here in the forum.
02/20/2010 update Just a quick little preview
Off to Applebee's for lunch!

Just a quick update, I got all the youtube code working (embedded videos) and I think I found a decent theme. Recently I got asked if we were going to have a current gen download section, the short answer is NO. It's far too risky and I'm sure there are hundreds of other sites that host those files. We're not hosting roms on this new server either, everything has to be off site like we do now with the forum downloads (rapidshare, megaupload, ect).

For now everything is going to be pretty much the same feature
wise. There is a quick reply and a chat system already setup, next thing I'm working on is the youtube tags among a few other things. I
don't have an official theme setup yet, I'll probably just throw together a
quick banner and a custom color combo when we re-launch. So far everything seems to have
been imported properly, all the categories, posts and accounts are up and running. Any user with less than 2 posts and who hasn't been active in 5 months
has been pruned/deleted. Currently we're down to a little over 100
active members. It was just one of those things I had to do, we had like
a thousand members with 0 posts. Talk about a fresh start... also I ran
into a little snag while importing the user accounts. The importer doesn't get the user passwords... so everyone needs
to re-create their passwords via the "forgot password" link on the new
site when it goes live. As far as avatars go a few couldn't be imported, re-upload your avatar it if that's the case. Other than that
everything is working perfectly, can't wait to launch this thing.
I'm not making any promises... but I'm aiming to go live on Monday the 22nd at around 9am EST

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my fellow Hustlers!
With a new year comes new opportunities, new experiences and most of all a clean slate for the year. You've got a chance to right your wrongs, try new things or even do the same things you've always done. It's all up to you to decide what this new year will bring you, whether it will be the best year of your life... or just another year in your life. For me this year is going to be one of the great ones, this year I'm going to do what I want (for once) and not what others want of me. I've been so bent on pleasing others over the years that sometimes I forget about me and just how miserable I really am.
