Awake My Forums, AWAKE!!!

*evil scientist laugh*

Now that I’ve got a bit of PHP under the old belt, my next after hours project will be the forums. They’re up and running, but still with someone else’s design. That’s gonna change. I want to make the forums a more integrated part of the site (recent posts in my blog sidebar, hottest topics, etc.) so if you haven’t registered for a username, go ahead and get one now. It’s like buying real estate I tell you, only this bubble ain’t gonna pop.

I’d also like some help moderating the forums if anyone is interested (Chris… Renee?!). It doesn’t pay well (how’s nothing sound?) but the self-satisfaction that comes with the job is overwhelming. Basically, I just need some people to gently remind users to keep the conversation on topic and move any threads that may be posted in the wrong category. You’ll get moderator priveleges, like the ability to ban users and edit threads; but like Superman you’ll have to use your powers for good, not evil. Think about it. You’ll be a forum superhero (no skin-tight body suits, please). Just let me know if it’s something you’d like to do.

We’ll see where this train goes.
