      not mine either

    Wishing I had a swimming pool to be in right about now.

    Trying something new out with the ads. Dropped the sidebar on topics for a single ad in the post. Going to let it run for a week and see how it goes.

      You may consider closing the status update bar as most people would consider using the shoutbox now

      It does seem a bit redundant. I use status updates only infrequently to post small updates.

    Thinking about removing the sidebar from everywhere but the main page. Does anyone use those recent topics links from viewing a thread?

      Oh I see. So in this case if you will leave the sidebar only on the main page I wouldn't mind it. And I doubt I ever noticed this on topics before Premium as well.

    3. Toño

      Yes, I see 'recent topics' sidebar from the thread page as well. So as I said before I wouldn't mind to remove it from there but would like to keep them on the main page.

      As I can see, sidebar been removed by now. Lookin' good, more space as well :)

    So we set a new record for most members online in a single day today. Greetings to the hundreds that have joined us in the last few weeks.

      Now up to 626 members online in one day.

    Many paths lead to Premium now, and can be done without cost. Points awarded for new topics/replies can be used in Point Store. Donations also grant points.

      how many points do i have :lol:

    2. frstplce

      frstplce

      Probably 0. I think I only set it up for regular members, since staff can't buy premium without losing their staff group.

      Nice stuff bill.

    Thoughts on the new homepage layout?

      I agreed, after all it was you, Ben, who inspired us to get it ;) And yeah, I'm ready :P

      Meh...How about we start counting backwards this time like a proper countdown!

    4. frstplce

      That could work too.

    My sympathies to all of those affected by the tragic shooting in Connecticut.

    1. komodo

      Tragic news. The thoughts of the majority of people across the pond are with the families and the loved ones affected.

      What makes me a bit upset is that the killer gets more attention than the victims. I say it's the various newspapers faults making him famous.

    3. frstplce

      frstplce

      That's the case now, but eventually people will still think of the victims and the "crazy kid" who did the shooting. We really do need more armed guards in more places where people gather.

    Happy turkey day to those of us who will be eating until we pass out today.

  14. frstplce

    No more Hostess Twinkies, Ho-Ho's, Ring Dings...a sad day for America.

  15. frstplce

    One week until I get to stuff my face with turkey and all the fixins'.

  16. frstplce

    Feeling bad for those still without power from Sandy. Temps are freezing now and it sucks.

  17. frstplce

    Lowered yearly subscription to $24. Yearly price is now 25% cheaper than quarterly subscription price. (When paid for a full year)

  18. frstplce

    Seems we jumped above 5,000 members today. Welcome to all the new members joining us.

    Hey happy birthday!

  20. frstplce

    Apologies for the brief few minutes of downtime. Changes were being made to IP assignment for future security enhancements.

    Football Manager back on sale @ 75% off today if you missed the last sale.

    36C today, 37C tomorrow. Too hot to really want to do much of anything. Stupid heat wave.

      You guys kidding me. I'd take 36 and 37 degrees during the day for me. Right now its 11 pm and its 39 degrees. During the day it reaches 44:(

    3. BenMWard

      Jesus. I consider it unbearably hot if we get mid 20s

    4. frstplce

      I just don't like the heat that much. I am quite comfortable at around 20C. Just too many extremes here. Can see as high as 38C in the summer and I've seen as low as -10 in the winter. I'd probably complain about a particular temperature less if it didn't swing so wildly between seasons.

    Ugh, wonderful day for a network outage. Was out of my control unfortunately. Our hosts entire network was just down for about 20 minutes. Here I thought going with a huge host would be beneficial.

  25. frstplce

    One more year until I'm 30. Crazy to consider it really, but SoccerPulse started in May 2002, and just a couple of weeks after launch I was celebrating my 19th. I really can't believe that time passed so quickly.

      Happy birthday again. Crazy how time flys, I can remember starting high school like it was yesterday and I turn 19 in just 3 weeks.
