As long as the plans that are in motion, keep flowing and get finished within another month being June at the most it will not be too bad.

Traffic and members will return, once the news gets flowing nice again, and that will happen as slowly old-timers are uniting behind the scenes to bring XS back to its former old glory.

That's all for now!

Garyopa has what looks like a firebird or Phoenix as his avatar icon here on XS. Xbox-Scene is like a Phoenix rising from the ashes.

The future can be bright. Stick with us.

I expect a new gen console from Microsoft next year, so that gives us some time to get our act together and get this place ready for the new console and the eventual influx of new members.

News worthy events have appeared in the forums here at XS. For the last few month it simply hasn't made it to the news page for a variety of reasons. That will shortly be fixed.

You are so right. -- BTW, it is a Phoenix. -- With that I have now updated my SIG to fit the moment. -- Which if you click on for now (COUGH) it will show you the latest 360 News), but that will change in a few days, as all the news you can imagine will be found right here on first XS, as my contacts in the 'scene' is so big you can't even pick up my black book, my favorite site has always been XS, and been lurking here for almost 10 years now, so stick around and watch the action and grab some

, as XS is returning to its old form and glory.

Catch you all later!

Good news guys. Keep up the hard work, and let's make sure this community and it's wealth of knowledge survives.

I hope to see the site back and running sometime. This used to be one of my favorite sites, I find myself visiting less now. I still love it though.

Sad to hear. This place was a wonderful time killer, source of information, and I even made some cash on the original xbox BST section.

There were some wonderful people here back in the day.

Is it too early to pour one on the ground for Xbox-Scene, or should I hold out hope?

-Duck!

"back in the day" being the key words in that sentence. Back in the day, people like Xeero, opjose, and BenJeremy made this place a treasure trove of useful information. They came here to (gasp!) help and educate people. Unfortunately, we now have people like Chancer, chorizo1, and hamwbone who come here to power-trip and flex their e-muscles.

Here's hoping a reborn XS features mods similar to those we were lucky enough to have back in the day. The return of the angry, drunken dwarf is an encouraging start...

Well said. XS isn't the place for elitist egotrippers, there's enough of that shit over on XH. Nice to see some of the old mods still about after almost a decade, and hopefully the next generation of consoles will provide plenty of reasons for XS's continued existence

Why do you feel the need to come in here and talk crap when you know nothing about me and the others and provide no proof? The information is still here and people are still helping each other. You sound like the one with the bad attitude. You are more then welcome to leave. You call us banning spammers and scammers power tripping?

Based on the people he called out, I'm pretty sure he hasn't been around the forums for a while.
Apparently last time he did, he decided to be an "internet tough guy" which explains his bitterness.

Nice to see so many old faces around here. I still open this site on my routine website list, even though it hasn't been updated in so long.

I was never overly active in the forums, but I did idle in the IRC channel quite a bit over the years.

Glad to see it's not wrapped up yet, will be interesting when the news gets flowing again.

This is really good news , I was worried

Code-Red · « **Reply #57 on:** June 13, 2012, 10:01:00 AM »

Here's hoping for a brand new website design and a forum running newer phpBB or vBulletin software. This site has been ugly and outdated for the last half decade.

And yes, before you ask, I'd be willing to put my skills where my mouth is. I've been a member for a decade, and have run both phpBB/vbulletin forums, wrote my own php/html/css/java.

The server is up and ready running BBS software.

We will have the phone number for you to dial into in a few days.
We are trying to work out the best area code where we have the highest XS member saturation.

I am sorry, I thought the plan was to run it on actual Xbox hardware, I am all setup just waiting for the rubber-dock-modem for the phone, so when the line rings I will run over and plug the phone into the holder and you can login, and I even got one of those new what do they call them 'toll-free' numbers so area code will not matter!
