I finally get back from my weekend of no work and all holiday and log onto my XBL account.  I look at messages and I have 27 of them.  All wishing me a merry X-mas.  Now that is kick ass.  

Since this issue is pretty much beat into the ground I will try to be short (doubt it). Karma was created for many reasons. Those reasons will only make sense if people actually use Karma correctly. Most of these reason have already been stated in the many posts around that site.

How far we have come....




P.S. In case you cant see the player, click the center of the blog post.

Well, after the last week or so of testing, the member points have really done well.  No post whoring has been detected and if anything contributions to the site have gone up.  In the next week or so, we will be adding in another test phase to the points which will be rewards.  I can not say what the first reward will be or what amount of points you will need to get it, but I think you guys will really like it.  What I can say is it will be in your Account Area so look to that navigartion in the coming weeks.  Thanks to everyone that has participated and helped me test these new features.  Mor

We just added an audio section to the site within the video/media section for podcasts and other forms of audio.  I figured there was no real place to listen to the 2old2type podcast and so now you can stream it directly from the audio section.  This also gives others the opportunity to upload their own audio as well.  To check out the new section, just head over to this link.

Well, even since the server update, the ladders have fallen to the way side.  After losing almost all team logins and most of the team data, we had to start from scratch.  At the same time, we wanted to update some thing and in the process have created more bugs then features.  Our biggest update was to get rid of the team login.  I hated the fact that members has to log in twice just to see their own team.  Well, we got that taken care of, but the new team profile is so buggy, it is almost unusable.  A part of me wants to just go back to the older system, but I hate that too. 

I just checked some of the sites stats today and thought it was interesting that more people are using Fire Fox then Internet Explorer.  56.6% of the people on here use FF while only 35.62% use IE.  The rest are a mix between Safari, Opera, and other browsers. 

Ok, if you look at your bookmarks now, you will see that the box is "closed." If you click on the heading or the arrow you will notice that your bookmarks suddenly appear. I put this into the blogs because for me the blog list is just to long. I wanted to be able to put them away and just check them out when I wanted to. Now I know that some people may like to have their bookmarks open at all times. So my question is, how much do you like or dislike this feature?

So I just got modded on Halo 2.  No big deal right. Happens every day.  What was weird with this mod, is that every time you shot someone with any bullet it was and automatic head shot snipe.  The even stranger thing, was that it worked for both teams!  Why would anyone want to mod for both teams?  I have to admit, it was kind of fun shooting an SMG at someone and having it say head shot snipe every time.  Weird. 

I just added the new trailer to MY Videos on the site so check it out!  I cant freaking wait for this game.  OMG OMG OMG.  I pooped my pants.  That is all.
