Keenspace killed it, I believe. As slow and crappy as it is right now the chatroom is quite simply the more enjoyable alternative. Should it ever work again like it used to, I am sure we'll get some of the activity back...
I can just say this. Keenspace screwed up on this one..it took me over 15 mins just to post this message..well since it is brand new I can see it is going to take some time get working properly.
In The Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
Quite possible. I had so much problems to post my latest page I think if I knew it was going to be that time consuming, I wouldn't began with it. This area arent luring anyone new here, if the speed dont get better. If I were new, I would give up very quickly if the subject werent so addictive.
I don't thiks that it's dead. YET. It's just that it takes so long and may attempts to get even logged in. Maybe it's the new code or something. I just hope that the men and women in the Keenspace are working on it. It took me FOUR attempts to get this window open. Not to mention the attempts to get the OTHER windows open.
On the other hand, this thing might even do GOOD to the forum. Well, I guess all we can do is wait and see.
Keep on fighting!
What chatroom, Striker? Does Keenspace have one that I don't know about? ^^;

And why does Keenspace now think that I registered on December 31, 1969? That's pretty funny, considering...
1.) I registered sometime in 2002, I think it may have been February or something, or possibly January... either way, it was relatively recent.
2.) not many people had computers at that point, much less in their homes
3.) my mom was younger than I am now (she was my age in 1971)
4.) I wasn't even born yet (somewhat obviuous due to the above reason).

Well it looks like at least from my end that the forum is back up and running. It was just a tad slower to load than the old forum. Since the Keenspace people probably spent all day trying to fix this error (which they had posted a msg about in the main forum list) I think they did a pretty good job. Now, lets go see if I can change some of my profile stuff... I have an avatar I wanna try out
Nice Avatar Mikaiten........very....flirty?
But the speed this forum operates at now STINKS!
And since there are so many Keen comix the page you go to on Logon might at least have them in alphabetical....I haven't found Jack there yet in all senses of the phrase.
Most everything seems to have been worked out (though some board moderators have let on to their inability to be able to edit their own posts and not be able to delete anybody elses posts).
Still, first post this month... pretty sad for the Jack forums which usually adds a page of topics every two weeks.
