As some of you may know the official date Gamers-Forum.com was released was August 28th 2006. Almost a year ago, a day before my birthday and The time is coming again.

It is a day before my Birthday and It was my actual first Non-Free Domain name. Meaning I did have a website before but I used free subdomains for everything. The Forum will finally be a year old.

I would like to thank all of you for being a part of it and helping the forum grow to what it is today. Please expect some downtime next week because I will be transferring the domain name from Yahoo! to NameCheap or even GoDaddy - I have to do that before Aug 12th and I cant do it at the last minute because I am moving in August and if I dont have internet connection this forum will be screwed lol.

Thank you again and I will be running some extreme posting contests here. Here is a sneak peak into what I am working on.

Referral and Posting contests will both take place.

Referral: The one with the highest Referral count by the end of August (aug 31st) - can choose any Steam Game he/she chooses that is priced $20 or less. Please read on, You must have at least 15 Referrals to qualify - it is only to be fair and It isn't that hard. Your referrals must also make at least 5 posts each to count.

Posting: From August 1st to August 31st, the one with the highest post count that month will get to choose another game worth $20 or less. The highest poster of the month. We will also have a runner up where the runner up will get to choose any game worth $10 or less. Runner up will the be second highest poster of the month.

Please expect more news on the contests, these are just a few guidelines I've been working on, more should be added and if you have comments, ask away. The only person not qualified to enter is ME :D. Enjoy the forum and thank you once again!

Yay, the forum will be a year old! I might try the refferal thing, sounds hard though (just right now, it would be easier if school was back).

This is where people with secondary dial up connections celebrate because their IP changes everytime they disconnect which is like every 2 hours :-P I don't though.. Meh, I doubt I can win the referrals one, But I think I have a shot at the other one, just have to setup the other PC in my room to use while my PC is down:spinny:

there is more than one way of telling than just IP address - people arent always smart enough and they login with one after the other and boom, caught, there are also mods to prevent this :) i cant list everything here publically
