So the start of tsnX has become necessary sooner than expected. I wouldn’t be so distraught if it was during a time when there WAS time to be creating a new site, and that this new site was not time-critical in its creation.<\/p>\n
Because not only do I now have to start over with a new code base, but I also have to merge a database. And I have to create a new template for the tsnX version – which means new graphics, and new code pages, and new bugs.<\/p>\n
Hopefully all this new stuff (along with the ditching of some old stuff) will bring back new members.<\/p>\n
Here’s the plan things I’m getting rid of:
\n – Cash Mod – no more spotics, l33t points, or bling.
\n…
\nHeh, that’s the only thing I can think of. I’m sure I’m ditching quite a bit, I just can’t think of all of it right now. But I’m adding a ton more things:
\n – User security
\n – More profile options
\n – More interactive forum features
\n – Better, smoother, softer Design
\n – and maybe a bit of Ajax.
\n – integration with the pizzy, the-blot, the freeformfrog, and the other sites that we’re working on.<\/p>\n
So check back to thepizzy.net\/blog for more information on how things are going with the site. And be telling your friends that used to come to tsn about the change. I’m hoping that this new change, which will be taking it back to the old-skool, and bringing it forward to the future, will bring back a lot of the members that used to come around.<\/p>\n
It’s time to go back to the “glory days” of tsn, when people came all the time, and we averaged 1000 posts a week. This will require new features, and better support from the mods\/admin…bother of which are being put into tsnX, as well as the tsnXport Services.<\/p>\n
