Happy Birthday phpBBModders

Postby Noobarmy » 02 Jun 2007, 15:09

Well in case you were wondering about the 11 hour and 59 minute (+ about 16 hours) outage that happened today/yesterday, it was for our first birthday of phpBBModders :) Its funny to think that this time last year me and igor were setting up this forum, and now its escalating beyond what we expected.

Just a little run through of what happened today (all times are GMT):

12:00) Forum switches offline. Countdown starts
Sometime in the afternoon) Leroy is the first to see the countdown. Sets his personal message and leaves for G8.
20:00) I see the countdown. Set my message
21:30) I wonder where the hell Igor is! Wondering whether this will actually happen lol
22:00) Igor appears!
23:30) 30 minutes to go....we're still not ready!!!
23:59) We give up trying to hit the target
01:00) Me and igor take a nap

But anyway we thought we could use this topic for people to share what they like/enjoy about modders, what they think of our upgrade, what you think the future holds for modders and how its helped you. And any other comments associated along those lines are appreciated :)

I even had several ideas for the countdown, but I forgot that the countdown was going to be yesterday. lol, when that counter was finished, there was already an error on the site. :D Anthony flew back and put the countdown page back up, yet with out a counter, and it still said counter on it :P

I am working on one of the ideas for the counter now, and another ideas I had was flash. I was thinking of the logo flying up in the air with a spin, then falling completely down until it was gone, and after, it would reload the page, and there would be the new site.

Also, what happened to phpbb3's smileys and junk?

EDIT: Anthony, why arent you on msnm? :evil:
