Sorry, just had to get this out of my system. I've never seen it like this in all of the years I've been in the scene. Where did everybody go? And I can understand perfectly that real-life priorities take place, I have them myself, we all do, but this is just ridiculous. And sometimes I really work my ass off, especially when I was going to school and working at the same time. I still had time to visit the forum and post, and hack on the side. It'd be nice to get some inspiration from other people's hacks once in a while, like we used to get all the time. Oh well. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

Well, I have some ideas on how to get it more active.
- New banner (who wants to come to a board that is "a miserable little pile of drama") - Perhaps a new board layout. - Put the name out there. When I was a member of TEK Hacks, me and 2 other people, got everything organized, and a couple months later, TEK Hacks was booming with activity. It then became that big place you knew it to be. It was me, Chaos Force, and Chill Penguin, I believe. Too long ago to remember exactly. But we pulled it off. We need to advertise the name Acmlm's Board when we go to other forums, blogs, web sites. Put it in your sig. I know a lot of people don't like advertising, but how else are you going to get people to come? How does anything ever get popular? Word of mouth. When you spread the word, people will come to see what it is all about. And I don't know if we have a main site or not, but if we don't, we should really get one. It can be done. We did it with TEK Hacks, it can be done with this site too. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

Posted by boingboingsplatOkay, that's fine. Yeah, it's humorous to us, but to outsiders, people who have never been here before, it may turn them off. I know I wouldn't want to go to a board that might have a lot of fighting on it, hence "a miserable little pile of drama." We want to keep the banner positive. Something like "Having fun since 1999", or something like that. Posted by boingboingsplatNo, it wouldn't, but it might help to put a fresh coat of paint on, if you know what I mean. And since we have layouts already selectable, perhaps we should should make one of those the new default. As for the banner, I'll make one. I have no problem with that. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

Re-opened since it's a good idea, and Logical Operand promised to get back on topic. Maybe I was a bit heavy handed. ____________________ |

Thank you Tyty. I apologize for saying that, and I have edited my post.
EDIT - blackhole89, I wanted to keep it retro, and simple. But, if this is not satisfactory, I can make another one. As for "Acmlm's Board 2", I didn't know, sorry. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

I feel the banner could do with a bit of...
uh, maybe just a little less red stripes paired with gray stripes? I've got no other ideas, so don't ask me. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |

I took the "2" out, but if I were to put a background in, I would have to start all over, because filling in would reduce the quality of the image.

He means that it's not Acmlm's board, therefore "Acmlm's" doesn't belong in the banner. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |

Okay. Well, what do you guys want to be the new name? Or, can I be creative, and come up with my own, and see if you like it? But the fact that "Acmlm's" doesn't apply anymore, means I have to make a new banner anyway.
EDIT - Here is another banner, with a new name. I need some opinions on this: ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

We aren't all about ROM hacking you know. Just because that's what you mostly do doesn't mean that's what the rest of us do.
board2 is a fine name for now, and it would be up to the staff whether the name is changed anyways. ____________________ |

Posted by TytyExcuse me. Posted by Tytybaord? How about re-reading after you post for errors. I'm done trying to help here, because it seems like you guys could care less. Now you can close this. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

Posted by Tyty I'm more familiar with 'board' myself. |
