The NZA Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Been meaning to have a meeting grounds somewhere for the times there's server upgrades, fuckups on my end or anything similar and the board's gone for extended periods of time, where i cant access the frontpage and give a heads-up. There's lots of you on Facebook these days, should we use our official page there as a relay station, or go through the effort of making an invisionfree or other backup forum just to make sure everyone's on the same page? The amount of phone calls/texts i got today (and bless your evil little hearts, its good to know this place is noticed/missed) tells me it might be time to have a backup ready for whatever may happen.

MetalHeart Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I voted Facebook for now until someone can mention something more concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 even on an iphone, hitting up the potential 20-30 people active (at least by logging in/voyeuring) a day is a bit tedious. i just figured itd be easier to have a place we all know to check when shit goes tits-up.

alive she cried Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Man I was terrified yesterday, I texted doj but he didn't know what was going on (and has left?) and i texted skeet but it wouldn't send. So Nick please pm your number, I do not want to be out of the loop again. Also I voted for different forum, as I don't use facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 damn, its all tied up. ok, we'll give it more time - a small, free backup forum woudlnt be overly difficult, but we'd all have to know to go there when things go south. let's get some more votes in.

Signal08 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 well, facebook is free. I say use that. For those who don't use facebook, you don't have to have an account and use it daily, just use it as the backup to Hondos. Just like whatever the backup to hondos ends up being, wont use it unless it goes down. Facebook is my vote, as anyone can use it for free.

The NZA Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 haha its funny, if we did this a year or two back, itdve been myspace, and now i have to be dragged kicking and screaming to go there. sometime in the next year or two, someone else'll have a social networking site that catches on (that's easier to navigate and i dunno, punishes people who play farmville/mob warz etc too much) and that'll be the new shit. the notion is a vote in favor of a small forum, but then making everyone aware of it could be a bitch, too. tricky.

MetalHeart Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Guys, we just need a backup for information. Not everyone has someone they can contact for more info. Whether it's Facebook, Myspace, or whatever, we need a place to get the info if shit happens. ESPECIALLY with HONDOSCON coming up. If Facebook doesn't sound good, then start putting up alternatives.

Signal08 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Anyone can get the facebook access though, at no cost or download, just a -sign in- so that would be the easiest poin and click. aaaand the only thing better than facebook, is a facebook - the games/apps. Jason, you have an invite to work on so and so's farm! in the spirit of Ly, Fuck da farm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalHeart Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 The apps can get a little ridiculous... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HypnotizinChikns Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 if you posted a bulletin on both myspace and facebook i'm sure word would get around. Almost all of us use one or the other, and those who don't usually have at least one member who has either on there AIM list, or whatever you crazy kids use to chat with these days.
