Wow... that was exciting, wasn't it? :rolleyes:

/me give the forums one last look over... sweeps a little dust under the carpet...

Watch the wiring hanging from the ceiling... we're still working on a few things :) For instance, you'll notice the smilies are just the default ones. That will change in the coming week.

We decided it was most important we launch the forum, rather than wait until everything was perfect. You guys (and ladies) need to have your home back, and we were anxious to have one open for you.

I have to say a HUGE thank you to Buies, Tigsman, and the entire crew at amdforums.com for tolerating us for so long. You guys are absolutely the classiest people on the internet. I only hope we can repay the favor some day.

Welcome home, friends :)

General Keebler,

Mr. Leonardo reports as ordered, Sir!

Hi, gang!

Oh this looks good. We are on the map. I'd give everyone a toast if I had something to drink, and if it were allowed over here on the surface of the moon.

My bags are packed; I'm ready to move out with 20 minutes notice to go to Kuwait International Airport for a stand-by flight. Crossing fingers.

I hope all of you are as excited about our new site as I am.

This place looks great! I'm excited to be at a new home.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the Short Media crew! I appreciate all your hard work, your dedication, and your extreme sense of urgency to get this website up and running for all your loyal friends. I've never thought Icrontic would go down the way it did, but I would never have imagined the amount of unselfish effort that has emerged to create this website.

I thank all of you. Even though you guys deserve much, much more!

Read Post Count thread (http://www.short-media.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=64) ;) It is not included/needed here and it's saving lots of queries to the database :)

btw, I notice there are no post counts to save a query. However, each post in a thread says 'post # of # posts'. Isn't that an extra query we didn't used to have??

Yeah I read it looks like Citrixmeta finally won at ebay, but I don't know what is he planning to do now. If icrontic 2.0 comes to the scene, what will we do? it's not good to have separate places. It's my opinion. Now we are all having a great time like old friends that met again after a lot of years, I wouldn't like to have any reason to start any discussion "stay here or move to the new icrontic?" :scratch:

Maybe I'm being very negative here, but I'm just supposing things. Do you know exactly what are the new managers planning to do?

(sorry if I seem like a negative feeling, that's not my intention)

(oh man I almost forgot english all this time, I'm having problems to write what I think exactly)

5 Jun 2003, 4:04pm
Hey sforza, welcome to our site.

There really isn't any discussion necessary. Some will post exclusively here, some will fade out and move to icrontic, and some (such as myself) will be actively posting at both. Just do whatever you have the time/energy for, and post at whatever forums you feel like, there's no love lost. Our management and Icrontic's management are on excellent terms; we are all friends, so there's no hard feelings either way.

5 Jun 2003, 4:39pm
Cool, that's what I thought but just wanted to share my thinkings with you. Hard feelings are not good....
