First off, we need alot more excitement. This can be achieved by setting up a massive internet block party. This PARTY HAS TO MAKE THE FRONT PAGE OF REDDIT.

It has to be so intense that NG's servers goes down with the largest DDOS attack seen by man.

Give GEO admin powers so that he could phish googles servers so any tech related emails will point to here. Allow BigIg to shamelessly plug his business on this site for free, further expounding NGemu's former glory.
Snicko can hock our wares on body building sites, well known testosterone sweltering pools full of repressed EMU NERDS.

UNLEASH MUDLORD ON THE SITE 24/7! Let his rage run unchecked!

Bring in Cid and a bunch of other metalheads, they will provide the rave wave, streamed for free hosted from D.Ds IBM server center!

Remove ALL Profanity filters! UNBAN SPYHOP's ORIGINAL ACCOUNT! THEN CONFINE IT TO THE ANIME SECTION!

HELL UNBAN EVERYONE! Let them be free to contribute, no matter how snarky and sleazy there remarks!
It'll be like the purge.......24 hours of unchecked mayhem!
:D :D :D

Sorry for the informed optimism (aka pessimism). But, can I trust you? Really. This place was so very different from what it is now, and general consensus is that you, the administration have failed.
Sorry, but results are the only thing that will convince us oldest members of the forum. Plus. How is this going to work if the forum itself is broken?

Site ain't really dead, the oldies and regulars often hang out in the open discussions sections of the forums, but there's still quite a bit of activity in the various emulation specific ones, its just that most people there like to keep to only using that.

EDIT: Btw i'm honestly starting to understand why the forum doesn't receive that many new comers... you put way to many restrictions on a new user to be honest...

I totally understand Takmadeus - actions speak louder than words. Give us some time to get the issues resolved and we can move forward from there.

Restrictions? Unless they are new then idk. I was posting links and vids within my first week of registering. Never had any issues or anything.

The community really needs fresh content and to expand beyond just emulation. Maybe try to propose new projects be hosted here, something that will drive traffic? A lot was lost when Dolphin, PCSX2 left and NullDC is no more apparently. All the exciting projects formerly hosted and driving traffic here dissolved from Ngemu or or no longer being developed.

When the conversion to Xenforo occurred the front page went missing. It would be nice to get a new front page system up to showcase articles, news and offer downloads. Pipe down with restrictions on new members and advertisements. With the site formerly being as active as it was so many advertisements were unneeded. Just a couple banner ads, one at top and bottom would've likely generated enough revenue and no one likes over the top obtrusive advertising. New members don't need moderation, if there's too much spam and not enough staff on could always get some more mods, smods on board or implement other anti-spam measure that wouldn't inconvenience members.

Keep Xenforo, last I checked VB went to crap since v4 and internet brands taking it over. Xenforo is the way to go; it's more stable, robust, clean/sleek and performs better.

Heya guys,

Can we make a new thread for each item you want the team to address under site support? This way we can make sure nothing slips through the cracks and everything is addressed. We may need to ask for more info and confirm fixes with you guys.

Here are links for the Community and Staff section. I know Alan is working on a few already but anything new or little bugs you mentioned and we will Hot Route them.

Thanks in advance,

Heya all,

Can you direct me to some of the keys issues that need to be resolved so I can prioritize what to work on first?

I assume the following:
1. Login Issues
2. Attachments
3. Permission errors
4. New user 1st post moderations

Thanks,
Jeff

Personally i'd go with:

1. Login Issues
2. New user 1st post moderation (i moved this up only because among the problems this should be easily/quickly fixed)
3. Permission errors
4. fixing up the broken ngemu member counter (so the forum doesn't appear like a ghost town :p)
5. Attachements.

Also more details on the registration bug would be great also as I write up stories for the team to review.
