I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

a question about the site...

Sleepy,

this site was picking up faster and faster a while ago then we had database and server issues that took over two months to resolve. After that people just quit coming back. It sucks.

Get some people to come over. It'd be rad to see some new POSTING people on here.

BTW...you're now officially a nitrous huffer.

oi, blame izm on efnet ;-) He packeted the shit out of the old server and we lost any sort of sponsorship. Being that nobody was really willing to step up with some cash for a new server it took a while to find someone willing to give us free hosting again. Top that off with the fact I had to MANUALLY re-do the entire fucking forums, and it took a while.

robry was a lazy bish and wouldn't get the db to me... and when he finally did I found I was the fortunate winner of 200k lines of sql that had to be manually updated 500 lines at a time.

stop whining, you got it done, and very nicely too... props to you... and just kick robry... he can take it...

hahahaaa but yeah, more posting people would be great... I'd try to get some euro folk over, but the JDM style is totally not for the EDM boys yet... it's mostly a combo between eurostyle (-DUH-) and rice over here...

true JDM cars... well... there's more and more, but not enough to get them to come here as often as to H-T where most hang out...

ah well... I'll throw a link into my sigs anyway, who knows ;)

it's one of those things where it's generally a snowballing effect. If there's no new posts, nobody new feels like posting or hanging around. With nobody new posting or hanging around, there's no new posts :/

It's really hard to get people back once they leave a forum. It sucks.

Sleepy, nice to meet ya. My name's Justin too, but everyone just calls me Munster.

Stick around.
