Congrats To Tex And Friends

[ml_man]

Outstanding that this board is back up again. It would be great to see this once again become the premier forum it once was. Hey, even better than before. :D

[JPP]

I am realy happy to be back to icrontic. I would realy miss something without typing www.icrontic.com. ;)
Big thx to Tex and all the others.
JPP

[Darksword]

Nice to see IC back up again. :) I don't visit as much as I used to, but it's nice to see some familiar faces.

[Aranyic]

Glad to see you around Darksword :).

[TBonZ]

[mr.FU]

[DexterHolland911]

Wassup :D

[Tex]

Darksword, Mr FU, Dexter and Tbonz all in the same thread ? I thought I was in a time warp or something.

Wow !

Tex

[kryyst]

Gotta say glad to see the board back up I was starting to go into withdrawl. Congrats and hopefully once again this place will be the king of tech boards.

[Enverex]

Nice to see the old faces back and the lack of some of the new annoying ones :)

NS

[BLuKnight]

Three teh cheers!

[Nexus]

I was just sooooo pleased to see that Icrontic was back. Something great has been missing in my life and now it's back :)

Can't wait till we get another babe and funny pic thread going again ;)

[Mortal]

Welcome back Icrontic!!!

Wow !

Tex Scary! Must be the twilight zone. I've been here before.

[Tex]

I felt like I had just walked out of Professor Peabodys Way Way Back machine or something...

[mr.FU]

dayam....i think its time to break out the bubbly, wadya say, tex? and waddabout MM? we gonna see em anytime soon?

[^Ben]

Yes i was a reader aswell. :)

I bet MediaDude is busy. In case you didn't know MM and Shorty have formed their own site.

www.short-media.com

Its gonna be killer with those two pushing the buttons! They opened their forums before us and the folding guys all moved en-masse to their site. By all means add them to your favorites also.

In fact we now have a "friends of Icrontic" link at the top under the forums link on the mainpage and I talked about their venture there.

When I get a chance I will post a bigger blurp for them on the front page also. They are both buddys and we at Icrontic wish them the best!

Welcome Ben ! Pull up a chair and kick back. The forums are more fun when you get involved. Then you will be addcited like the rest of us Icrontic junkies.

Tex

[DexterHolland911]

I guess it's to be expected, but I don't even know half of the moderators. :rolleyes: Talk about out of the loop.

[^Ben]

Hehe :D

Yes why did Icrontic get hacked in the first place was it just some little kid, the type i like to call "billy no mates" :P

[Tex]

And I am trying to get more of the old Icrontic guys active again. If you or Mr. FU want back in we need help all over as you can see. So many of the old staff left so we are trying to "grow a new staff" from other Icrontic members.

Tex

[DexterHolland911]

:D avatar is back. Tex, I'd love to help out, but I don't want to make a committment I'm not likely to follow up on, for your sakes. I'll try and start posting again and we'll go from there? I gotta admit it feels good to be back though. :cool:

[^Ben]

Just a thought. (wow i had one)

What if members reviewed hardware and such and put it on the forums and if it was decent maybe you put it up on the site?

[kanezfan]

maybe OPP will pop in huh?

[Tex]

Kanez: Would be cool but I bet not....

Tex

[muddocktor]

Tex and the rest of you guys, you have done a fine job getting Icrontic back up in action. I also wish you all the best of luck in growing this site back to it's former glory and I plan to continue to come here also.:)

mudd

[Polock]

This is fantastic:cool:

I've been a lost pup lookin' for answers for too long. The better advice always came from Icrontic...hands down, or; is that up:confused:

Anyway...congrats Gentlemen.

Polock

[DarkGuarDN]

Good to be back buddy ! This was my home. It was sad to have to leave. But the good news is we all want to make the New Icrontic even better then before.

This site isnt really mine or anyone elses though. It belongs truly to all the members and our new staff is truly committed to creating a home for everyone that you will truly enjoy.

Tex

[ALiEN509]

When I saw icrontic was being sold on ebay I was shocked, glad to see it's still icrontic and it's still here.

Pm any moderator any reviews you have written and I guarantee it will be read, we cant promise to post everything, but its a great idea Ben!

Remember, this is all about you guys/gals, we want you to let us know what hardware works for YOU.

[4amFriday]

glad to see the site up and running again. :)

is there any news on the little pricks that hacked the site?

[Tex]

Not that I know of but... Almost no one working on the site now was with it then also. Its hosted on differant hardware by a differant company etc..

Tex

with that attitude, I'm sure that this new icrontic will be a great place for everyone to visit and make a home ;)

[karatekid]

I haven't really said thanks to Aranyic, M33pins, CitrixMeta, and Tex for bring the site back and getting us our old home, so here I go. Thanks.

[4amFriday]

good to be back. i hope the new site does well!

what ever happened to mortin btw?

[Tex]

Probably the best guy to ask would be celcho. I saw he posted a topic about folding over in OT.

Tex

[Enverex]

Yeah, Thanks Aranyic, M33pins, CitrixMeta, and Tex. Doing well.

NS

[Black Hawk]

Damn nice job you guys did. Fast server too. http://www.templeofchaos.com/~blackhawk/smilies/beer0.gif

That's very possible. Free free to submit reviews to staff and we'll look over them, maybe provide feedback, maybe just put them up. Either case we are willing to work with anyone who wants to review thier stuff for Icrontic.

[ElectusUnum]

IT'S BACK! SCORE!

[Mt_Goat]

Woo Hoo!!!
Looks reeeaaallll goood guys(you are all guys, right? ;) )
And I don't have to exit by saying ; "Mr. Wizzard get me outta here!"

[nenet]

Yeh, really fast server...best yet, no lag what-so-ever.
Good to see the site continue. It has been a great place to get help and help others over the past 4 yrs.
4 yrs., I think this is now my 2nd or 3rd time from "0" due to hacks/management problems...never whined to get post status back, as others did...good to see everyone here starting anew.
HMmmm, is the World listening?
nenet

[dellin]

[FudgePacker]

Congrats to all involved! It's really nice to see Icrontic up again. Given the hopefule direction this site plans to take I'll be a regular here

[EQuito]

never whined to get post status back, as others did...We were probably the only two.3 counting me.I can confirm those statements. In my case, I got them back but I didn't ask for it... :D

CC: good to see you around bud. Congrats SuperMod, you truly deserve a higher status!
What happened to you? wait! let me guess..., the snow outside the igloo melted just enough for you to get out in time for the grand opening huh? :D

Hi MrBill, nice to see you here too.

Hi nenet, long time no see. I'm glad you decided to join the new ICF. Three freaking years bud, can you believe it? ICF started around August 2000.

Cheers to all and once again, thanks to those involved for bringing ICF back!

Same with me :) I've been visiting Icrontic for some time now, reading the forums and everything offered in the past. I just felt I should complete the move-in and saddle up. I've already been posting like mad, but I just found this topic :p

[Slacker]

It's great to see Icrontic w/out all the bickering and BS that took place right before the hack.. long live the new, grassroots Icrontic. :cool:

[Enverex]

Grassroots?

Hopefully Icrontic will be around for longer this time..... :)

NS

[^Ben]

Of course it's gonna be the best its got great peeps like ummmmm mmmmmmmmmmmm

Less intimidating now with the new forums in some ways. And you get to help build a site from scratch.

Hi EQ. Good to see you as well. Yep. It's the season of hard sledding here. The Smod thing isn't status. I was asked if I wanted to help out and my reply was, "only if I can kill" :) . Hope you hang around and grace us with your unique charm. :)

Take care old buddy.

[hrrmph]

Another lurker/occasional poster returns to the womb and settles in...ahhhhhhhh... that feels good.

[Tellerve]

Ahh, glad to see she's up and around again. I think I too would have missed this place, learned a lot here over the last couple years. I might not have been a heavy poster but I've been lurkin' for quite some time.

Good to see everyone's home...

Tellerve

[nenet]

Great to see all Cool Canuck, EQ, Darksword, etc., etc . and the originals still here...Wow ...learned alot, been some good times and serious threads at times...just great...best is, all are here and kudos to the ones that kept it up. Many have been lurking as I, of late...lots of good info here, from well seasoned supporters. Great to see it continue.
nenet

[Missileman]

Wow !!! It really is nice to see the site back up and all the old guys checking back in. It really was a pain having to look for a new place to hang out. Problem is solved. Hang out at the old place.

Congrats Guys and I hope it comes back better than before.

[Cool Canuck]

In Coming!


Hey MissileMan, good to see ya.

[dNA3D]

I'm back too... and better equipped than ever. With my Canon Powershot G3. Muahahaha

[Missileman]

It's good to be back CC. I was off doing some serious games testing for quite a bit, but most are on the market now or will be this month. The que is dry at the moment so I got a bit of free time. I was always lurking at the old place but wasn't real happy with the way it "degraded" into a flame pit. Hope things go better this time around and it gets back to helping each other and trading stuff about new hardware etc... like days of old.

[Lincoln Imp]

Thanks to all for getting everything up and running sooo quick, and for making me a mod :D

All hail Tex and co.

Well stick around and help out. There are lots of people of similar mind trying real hard to get things back on track. Things always evolve, but hopefuly we can keep it going in the right direction.

[xDeluxex]

this place is starting to look more and more like neowin every day...

[Tex]

neowin? I didn't catch the connection.

Tex

[xDeluxex]

www.neowin.net
its not a bad thing, if anything a good thing

[Tex]

I didn't take it bad. Just wondered if you were seeing the same people or if it was the look and feel of the forums or???

tex

[xDeluxex]

on the main page the lay out of the articles are almost the same. also there is a little icon there. the headlines are the same style. the forums have basicaly the same lay out http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php but there forums are more active... i just get the same feel from both

[Enverex]

Still dont see the connection.......

[Hawk]
