I have plenty of space for the db. But if the db runs slow even after being optimized then you really need to prune the forum, but this is only if it gets extremely large. Im intending in keeping all the posts from the current forum. Lets hope the import script works well. :D

Ok, if pruning needs to occur....can we make sure we keep all of DS's posts....as they are highly beneficial to the community :twisted:

DS :roll: :lol:

same with Merl's :? 8O :? :lol:

ANd thanks again to TOmmyS for taking over the forum.

ANd tHanks TO thE damn KeyboARd developErS foR puttinG thaT Damn CapS lOck buttOn In such A duMb placE! :D

TommyS is da man!!!!

Cheers dude

DS

Thanks TommyS!

Nice one TommyS.

And, yeah the oviar skin looks to be the most suitable and least painful on the eyes.

Thanks alot TommyS, this forum is alot of fun to hang out in and I wouldn't want to see it get over-run by f-wits.

You have been very generous and the new features will be awesome.

I mean, we could all like put our Virus patches an audio stream and leave it on repeat. That wouldn't drive anyone crazy at all :twisted: :lol:

But seriously, much gratitude to TommyS 8)

What do people think of having a java IRC applet for a chat room on the site?

Do you think this would stop people from posting on the forum or not?

btw. i`m still waiting to hear from sunesha, so nothing is confirmed about the site change.

IRC... Not bad idea at all...

Thanks TommyS for the support
Again special hails and salutes for sunesha for this great forum. Thank you :)

thx to tommys for the generous offer.

what will happen to audiosluts?

I really hope this board keeps going, it's a fantastic knowledge base and home to some wonderful, colourful characters.

Someone, please take care of it, I don't have the time or resources but wish I could.

This board is very different from others, it's small but perfectly formed. Everyone is warmly welcomed, and literally everyone knows everyone else - there are some utterly fantastic characters here - and it's a proper little lively community of its own.

The VirusTI merger idea was a nice one, but there was perhaps the possibility of the moderation thwarting the dynamicism of the off-topicness. - This place needs to remain independant and completely free from an agenda, otherwise it would be like taking out the backbone. Juho and the gang thrive with having the space to play havoc and joke, and this place would be utterly destroyed without it. The OT-ness plays a huge part. It's ironic that although there are no restrictions, no-one actually really needs moderating here! It's all in good fun, and everyone joins in. It's a very fun place. There are many great people that contribute, and all are held in great respect.

Cheers Tommy. If you need any donations say the word, and we'll all chip in!

And the biggest thanks to Sunesha, for starting the resource and for taking care of the forum for so long. We wish you the best in any new avenues in life you wish to go! Make sure you pop in every now and then.

I think it'd be true to say that owning a Virus wouldn't be half as sweet without this place.

Timo I could not have said it better. Excellent analysis! :lol:

Me either Timo. Nicely put!

Here here!!!!

Chin chin!

Ok guys...so whats da latest on the forum. Whats happening!

DS 8)

Timo: Agreed.

And as DS asked, what's the latest in news?

Im still waiting for sunesha to contact me so i can get access to the database. Without the database i cant do much.

:D

OK cool!

DS

Any update on whats happening to the forum?

DS

hey hey
 

whats up guys,

I've been a virus user for years and it would be an honor to host this board... My name is paul, Ive owned an indigo when it first came out, then a c, and also the indigo tdm plug in for a while... I must have taken my virus c apart a number of times. -> the last time to give it usb support by installing an emagic 6|2m inside the case so I only have to plug in a usb cable and a power cable and its good to go...

anyway, the virus roks and it is amazing the sonic soundscapes you can make with this machine.

I am a linux admin / debian guru.. and have no problems transfering mysql tables along with your modded php scrips over to one of my servers.

anyways, just so happens Ive got 2 dual xeon pizzabox servers not being used and two cabinets each with 100mbit unsaturated connectections (1 at equinix chicago thru peer 1) and one at rcn colo chicago (thru rcn)...

I own the domain z3.net and I am building a network of entertainment / music making boards and it would be an absolute honor to host this site...

maybe we can make the subdomain

virus.z3.net so the board is simple to get to...

if u want to take a look at what type of speed connection I am hooked into, feel free to download this 30mb garbage file

http://z3.net/test30mb.tst

let me know your needs / concerns contact me at:

paul@z3.net

also I started the virus forum on tribe.net (which gets so very little activity its sad.)

holy crap, do you think u got enouh jupiter-8's DIGITAL SCREAMS?

wavesinspace you sound like a clever dude - installing USB soundcard into a virus thats pretty neat. As for hosting I'm sure you would do a grand job

Re: hey hey
 

Thats an extemely generous offer there mate....But I think Sunesha and TommyS have some sort of deal going on.

It is nice to have the options though!

Whatever happens, and whomever takes over this board, I just hope it remains the same friendly, uncensored, and informative (and fun!) place that it is.

Is there a reason to switch away from phpBB?

I`ve not been contacted by sunesha yet. Im happy with whatever decision he makes.

:D

Any update?

DS

Maybe Sunesha got all sentimental and changed his mind about handing it over :wink:

cheers

blay

Yeah, what the hell has been happening with this change over?!

C'mon Sunesha! :D

so am I right in thinking that this forum is here to stay?
I hope so.

Me too!

:)

Amen, The UAV must continue on!!!

Long live the Unofficial Access Virus Forum!!

-Alex

Do you still need a place to host ?
I work in ISP and my boss is a great fan of electronic music.
I guess i could talk 2 him .....

Sunesha seems to have gone awol...

Guys...its really nice that you've offered to host this great forum. For the time being...it looks like our current hosts have indeed gone awol :lol: ....but they appear to still be hosting! YAY!

If circumstances change then we'll hear about it in this thread. Once again...on behalf of the 1000+ members here...thx for support.
