Hey everyone,

I've recently decided to switch back from Joomla to Wordpress and decided to use your wonderful forum plugin again.  It has come lightyears since I used it last.  Anyway, here's the link:

http://gameruckus.com

It's a gaming news related site with a focus on online games and older console games that make you feel nostalgic.  Tell me what you think.

Good luck with it. I hope it works out... Still remember the first time I played Space Invaders! Actually - still remember the first time I played Pong!

Thanks.  I started out with the Atari 2600 and NES, but being there for Pong...That's something to be proud of. 🙂

I've used more forums than I would care to mention, but the features and the way the forum is present blows everything out of the water.  It's fully featured without bloat.  Excellent excellent job guys.

thanks for the kind words you young whipper snapper you. My first computer was an Atari 400. Then the 800, then the Amiga before I flipped to the dark side.

That looks great! I am thinking of adding forums to two sites i have running the same exact theme - did you have to make a page template or any changes to the css? I just installed the forum on a site I have running Earthly Touch - ended up making a single column page for it which was surprisingly not too hard.

Actually I didn't have to make any changes to the css or theme.  The only thing I'll probably do is copy the current WP theme and remove the calls to the sidebars so the forum can be expanded across the entire page instead of being cramped up.

Mr. Papa, haha what do you referring to as the dark side?

I've been involved with GameRuckus for pretty much the entirety of its existence and of all of its evolutions, I'd have to say I'm most excited about Xalo's decision to switch back to Wordpress and utilize this great forum plugin.  It feels to me like it has added a new dynamic that was simply wasn't there before.  Something that it's really been needing.  Though this latest version of the site is still very young, I expect great things to come from it.

In other words, thanks for the totally awesome forum plugin.  It blows our previous one out of the water. [Image Can Not Be Found]
