It's never too late to join the cyberspace

There's like 3 main things you gotta do to be up-to-date these days:

1. Listen to DubStep
2. Watch many Youtube Video's (e.g. RayWilliamJohnson etc)
3. Join Facebook and be active on it

That's what most people do at the internet these days (Well, kids my age :P)

 

[ThisOldMan]

Thank you for telling me about Dubstep. Now I have something new to try.

Hello and welcome to the community. You have found XF....very good start hehe

Hey! =D

Welcome to the site, and thank you for signing up. It's never too late to join cyberspace, even if the old AOL cdrom doesn't work anymore.

 

[ThisOldMan]

lol I am always 13 yo in WoW. Oh yes, believe it or not, ThisOldMan is a WoW addict.

With ConstCont it is always tough to find active writers, and knowing what content is still valid for today. It was nice running into your article and realizing it is just that. And then to find you on the site here. If you have a web page you desire us to link to in the article please do let me know.

 

[ThisOldMan]

That's very kind of you, Floris. Actually, your sale is the very first that I made through CC. Of course, it is not the first time I made money writing in cyberspace. You can see some of my articles in mosthauntedcastles.com and moviestarpets.com. No byline though but I would like to think that my style of writing is discernible.

btw I would like to celebrate by writing an article for you F.O.C. What would you like me to write about and what length would you prefer? No charge, really. It's just my way of saying 'Thank you'.

 

[Floris]

Wow, talk about being generous.

Well, we're about community software, especially XenForo, but we also focus on building a community, managing it, what can one do with forums, and how to operate it behind closed curtains.

If you have a few ideas, feel free to poke me in a private msg, and I can say which one might be more suitable for our site.

I have no problem giving you full credits in the published thread.

 

[ThisOldMan]

Will do.

Welcome to XenFans Hope you enjoy your stay here.

Welcome to XenFans. I'm a WoW addict myself so I know how you feel.

 

[ThisOldMan]

Another WoW addict?! That's great. Now I won't be wandering around these parts like a lonely cloud anymore. I used to be active on a WoW gamers forum but it was so full of obnoxious kids, or old men masquerading as obnoxious kids , that it became quite a grind to separate the grain from the chaff, so to say.

btw just got an idea for an article. It's about How to Increase Your Post Count Without Being Banned for Trolling. In the article I intend to put in my personal experience about posting on forums. Things like, say, how I made 200 forum posts in 24 hours without being banned or called out for trolling.

What do you think?

 

[Steven Moore]

That would be an interesting article as long as it involves content that stays on topic. LOL

I've been playing WoW since vanilla, probably say around 6 months after vanilla was released. Now I have an 85 of every class but warrior and hunter which I'm working on both of those right now. I avoid all WoW gamer forums as they are usually ran by kids which is very annoying as they have no idea how to run a forum.

Used to be but IMHO they are biased there so I don't go there anymore.

Yeah, I am on WHT site, and one of my friends is a team member there; =D Tyler.

 

[ThisOldMan]

I see. The reason I am asking is that I have this notion of promoting Xenforo via WHT. They do have a lot of visitors. Besides, there is no such animal as bad publicity. Handled properly, even the worst criticism can be turned to our advantage. What do you think?

 

[Floris]

We are not XenForo.com, but we do support the idea of having people discuss xenforo, I don't see a problem with that. Especially when the discussion is within the forum rules of that community.

So? How do you like DubStep?

I'll give ya three gotta-know dubstep songs

I doubt you will like it though :P
I challenge everyone in here listening to it and telling me what you think

 

[CurveGotti]

Welcome to the site ThisOldMan and cyber space. I am sure you will enjoy your trip, as you've undoubtedly noticed already most of the people around here are quite friendly.
