Description: We like to discuss about Gaming and Technology. As with our many failed attempts at getting members previously, The new Gamers and Geeks is hopefully going to change that. We would like you to join if you haven't already. We are standing by waiting to talk to you 🙂 No matter if you are from Monaghan, Ireland or from Manchester, England or Tokyo, Japan. Gamers and Geeks is world-friendly.

Your Name on the Board: VampiricPadraig

We have a IRC Channel if you want to hang out with us at http://gamersandgeeks.net/irc
We also have a Twitter for sending out news stories and status updates about the site at http://twitter.com/gamersandgeeks

If you hate filling in pointless forms, just click the "

" button and you can sign up using your Facebook account (Note, Your Facebook information is not stored on our servers, so you can guarantee that your personal information is safe)

We also have StopForumSpam implemented onto our forums and security questions on sign up so that no bot can get it.

We also feature a blog system, where users can post blogs about anything that they want, whether it be personal, gaming or technology. We will promote the best blogs to our news section, so everyone can read it.

Thank you for taking your time to read this post and hopefully that you can provide some tips or hints on how to improve the website.

E3 is coming up and we will have all the news from the 3 conferences from Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. Posts will be up when the show is finished. 🙂 Check us out and read our stories about E3 2011!
 
Bump!

We are looking for some staff to get the forum a bit more active. If you want to help out at the forum to get us up and running,

Thanks in Advance 🙂
 
Bump!

We have hit 5 members today 😀
We are planning to get 10 members by the end of October 😀

Over the past week, we have changed our forum software from phpbb3 to MyBB and I have to say...MyBB is awesome!!!

Anyway, You should all pop along to G&G and have a discussion with various peeps 😀

Vamp!
 
Our forum has EXPLODED with members.

We have now got 28 members, but hardly anyone has posted.

Please come over and create a discussion.

When people start posting on the forum, i will be thinking about buying gamersandgeeks.net for a second year.

Our forum has been hit with a spam registrations and we have 109 registrations but really there is 2 members. 🙁

Because of this, I have disabled registration until I can find a way around this.

If you would like a account, you can PM me here and I can set up a account for you.

Looks nice, but the theme that you are using is kinda over used on many MyBB forums here on mybb.

Click to expand...

I know that it is overused. But I wanted to try and get something up, maybe later on when I am not busy with college, I will try and create a design for it but thank you for the compliments 😀
 
I think a few more sub-forums may be beneficial. When going on there it's not clear what the difference is between the gamer forum and the geek forum since many times gamers are geeks and vice versa.
 
I understand this and I will probably be changing the structure of the forum over the next while. I will have to sit down and decide what forums should go where 🙂

Also a quick note to everyone. I have dealt with the spam accounts that have been created over the past while. I have deleted 106 accounts and have implemented added security to the forum and registration is open again. Details on downtimes and such are available in the "Forum Logs" sub-forum on http://gamersandgeeks.net/ 😀

(10th post ^_^ )
 
I just signed up and can't post. Many users may be frustrated having to wait for admin approval. User name is JackDaniels. Just trying to help 🙂
 
@MacDev - You might want to check your email as registration is email activated 🙂

If you do not receive a email from us, I will look into this.

Vamp 🙂
 
Ahh you're right. I don't remember it telling me to check my email but I probably missed it. Good stuff!
 
Ok, so I was thinking today about a new structure of the forum.

How about:

-Gamers and Geeks
--Forum News
---Forum Logs
--Introductions
--Suggestions and Feedback

-Discussion
--Gaming
---Microsoft Xbox
---Sony Playstation
---Nintendo Wii/DS
---PC Gaming
---Retro

--Geeks
---Microsoft Windows
---Apple Mac OS X
---Linux
---Other

-Off-Topic

What do you think about it?

The format of your forum looks great, Vampiric Padraig. I’m sure you’ll be able to recruit new members here soon enough.
 
So we have now hit 5 ACTUAL members. We are going to try and start the Gamers and Geeks Clan *whooooooo*

There is a special forum that I have set up and a I will write up a list of games that we can play. 😀

Should be some good fun. Oh, and we are already on Central Outpost so that is pretty awesome 😀
