Could we get the archived version of the old installs page, before the server upgrades began, that was a great source of information that doest seem to be covered in the actual fourms themselves

Also, what happened to the Reviews Section? Its not located in the top link bar anymore.

Might it be pulled for revamping? Only to be put back soon?

HINT HINT! =]

The reviews section is definitely missed, some people put a lot of time and effort into writing/reviewing/submitting pieces and even more took the time to read them.

The installs section never really got updated after I became a member and while some of the info was still useful I think it was more of a nuisance because people would come up with useful posts to be put in the installs, submit them and they just never got added. If the installs section ever came back I would probably be tempted to resubmit my old install pieces and share them with the community.

Either way the site is doing pretty darn good right now, it can only get better from here.

yes, i'd love for them to revive it, even if its the old ones, they are still valuable especially the information.

Ya know, its on my to do list but its just one of those things I never end up getting to with my limited time I can devote to the site.

We did buy the Article software and I installed it. There is a final version released now so I will get that installed and start to convert the install section. Its based off a article system and I can allow memeber to populate it, which will be a great help. Although we may limit this to Premie function simply because I dont want to see a bunch of garbage/spam.

Then there is the review section, and the gallery. I am getting to those soon as well. We need to start fresh with those since the software has been nothing but unreliable.

Keep buggin me, Ill get to it soon enough!

PS: We are setting something up that will allow me to be about 100% more effecient with doing work on the zilva. So good things are coming.

Even then, sometimes Premies would be a bit biased. Thats just like only letting the governers talk, and ignoring the citizens.

What SHOULD happen tho, is a strict login, or carryover posting.

I hated Anonymous User posts. For some reason, i never really trust those, and im not the only one.

Logged Posts = Good thing.

do you think we could get an ETA on when it'd be back?

not meaning to rush or anything, just a roundball date.

Thanks again.

And don't hurt me.
