One suggestion . . . . prior to registering, I could not locate the General Forum or the Politics Forum on your site . . . they didn't show up among the list of forums. It almost kept me from registering . . . though obviously it didn't.

Maybe it was just a quirk, but if not, I suggest changing that so that you'll entice more people to register.
Yeah, there was a reason for keeping it hidden from guests but I do think it can be visible now. Thanks for bringing it up, a good reminder.

I turned adblock off on this site. I figure I can give you a bit of ad revenue. If I even find myself with a few bucks I don't know what to do with I might just have to click the friendly little donate button down there.

What's this running off of right now anyway?

Server-wise or software-wise?

Wow, I'm glad you know that stuff, because it is chinese to me. Thanks again Justin!! And I trust your word is good over the Nazi's on the other site.

I think its hilarious (read awesome) that I refused to pay for the other site, but I've already donated money to this site.

Amazing what can happen when you have someone who's competent and truly cares running the site.

Sadly no. I'm enough of an enthusiast to understand what you said though.

Unless you need someone to write some really basic and sloppy html or flash stuff for you?

I'm good with HTML but I'd be sloppy as well with flash. That is one thing I definitely need to learn. Glad there are some other nerds on here.

Perhaps those nerds can help you with this site so that it is a little easier on you and a little more efficient? Not criticizing as I think you are doing an awesome job.

I've already thought of that. I plan on starting a thread soon. :)

Definitely good thinking.

I wish I could be more help to you, but I am not good with HTML or any of that. I did what I could about getting the word out for ya over on the old site. Hopefully this one flourishes. Once I get some funds, I'll plan on donating.

Funny, I'm willing to donate here but not willing to pay one cent to the other site forcefully. Go figure!

I'm one of those nerds, and can help out if needed. I'm going to do up the scoreboard and some other things when I have some time here. I've just got to teach myself php real fast. I never got a real job doing what JC does when I got out of school, and I've only used ASP over the years for my server-side stuff. It's fine, I'm a quick study.

Just wanted to say that at times I have had trouble logging in here. Using my correct username and password. I have gotten off and cleared my cookies, which has helped. But not all the time.

It has been inconsistent. Just in case anyone else has experienced the same issues.

I use Firefox and run a Mac.

Did you make sure to go to www.freehuddle.com, not just freehuddle.com?

I was informed by a Dover Huddler that may have been my problem. I do appreciate all of the help. Thanks.
