Off-Topic: Driver Forums needs more post & members

[john cena]

The Driver Forums isn't doing that well as it used to. There hasn't been anyone on in a long while and I do hope that those who joined and are willing to join will be active at least 3-5 days each week. So please help it out by joining if you really love the driver series because this I would say is like the 2nd best places to talk about the driver series and it includes not only Driver, Driver 2, Driv3r, and a Driver Parallel Lines forum, but it also contains a forum of Driver 5. So you can give your thoughts on any of the driver series games.

[Driv3r_fool]

there isnt a forum for driver 5... PL hasn't even come out yet...

but yeah, i agree --- if you are reading and you haven't joined and posted, do it. cause we want to hear your opinions and ideas.

[Getaway Man]

If you have a free e-mail address you can't join this place, well not know, but you can at the Driver Forums, so come on down all the visitors who read these forums, I know you are out there.

As much as I would like to support you cause John, I think that drafting members here to join the Driver Forums is a waste of time, unless a huge amount of noob suddenly arrive, you are going to have to wait till Driver: Parallel Lines is reliesed, that's when the noobs will come looking for forums. Matt_jon might be kind enought to add it to the sites list in the D3 FAQ, or even to the D:PL FAQ. It's just, there aren't as many members here, which makes finding members hard, but best of luck finding members.

[john cena]

Thanks for that The Getaway Man. I appreciate it. Also to let you know that the majority of driver series fans are definetly registered here and it would take a very long time to find everyone else that likes this series. If i were to ask anyone on ign.com, which would be against the terms and conditions because i simply can't advertise there so this is likely the only place where i can find anyone to join. So please anyone who really loves the series I ask you to please join. If you want to join then click here (http://s11.invisionfree.com/Driver_Forums/). Also I would really appreciate it if Sedans_Is_Back, #1theman, and The Getaway Man started posting again. So please help out and come back because i really want this place to be the one place where all the driver fans come over to read the news, look at the screens, post strategy guides, post cheats, and post any glitches found in any of the driver series games.

Sorry to be an ass, but you're trying to get people to go to a Driver forum, when they're already at a Driver forum. I'll still add your site to the FAQs thread though.

Hahahah you can't be serious.

[john cena]

I do hope that you guys decide to join because I really worked hard on this board and I want it to do well.

[Undercover]

Thanks to Gmail i could finally register here after 3 month of lurking :D

[carlover325]

I have a gmail account, but my computer won't load it for some reason. I have lots of emails, some of which were free, others that weren't. I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately. I've been busy with 2 classes. I had a huge Language Arts essay that I had to do, which is worth 1,000 points, or about 2/3 - 1/2 of the semester grade. I finally finished that, but I have had a lot of government homework. I'll try to be here more often now, though.

@john cena: I'm not special enough to make your list of people you want to start posting again. :( j/k :p

[john cena]

Well I hope that those who joined at least come back on because I really want the board to get bigger and bigger. I don't appreciate it when people don't care for others and that just makes me mad, especially if you couldn't help anyone with anything. On friday i volunteered to bring money to buy for a 14 year old who's a hurricane victim and he wants both a xbox controller and some videogames. I'd be happy to help out because knowing that i have a lot and sometimes if you have a lot of something then you need to help out other people just like I'm doing at high school.

[matt__jon]

He wants an Xbox controller? He should be asking for food, but thats just me. Not to be disrespectful, maybe they have enough food, but if I got hit by a hurricane real bad like the Gulf Coast did, I wouldn't be asking for an xbox controller, even if I had an xbox with no controller.

I agree with that. An XBOX controller or games aren't needed for somebody to survive. He shouldn't be asking for videogames and videogame accesories, but should be asking for warm clothes and other basic necessities. And if the kid and his family has enough food and clothes, the family shouldn't be asking for anything.

For instance, my Language Arts class has adopted 3 families that are not financially well off, and they are asking for food, clothes, and school supplies, and this is for Christmas. The kids aren't asking for videogames or any toys for that matter. Although, some kids in my class are donating a bike to each family and other small toys, but that is because they are choosing to, not because the family requested it.

[pirjay]

Come on, he's a kid, he doesn't know what's good for him. He wouldn't be asking for an xbox controller if he didn't have any food anyway.

[john cena]

Do you guys know that its almost Christmas well that's what I mean and my teacher told me that they probably get food from services or things like that so why would all three of the sons ask for food when they could get something that they could actually play and have fun with?

[Bowarcher]

If you find a good enough game, you won't care about food anymore.

[john cena]

Lol.

[Getaway Man]

Good luck getting members, might take awhile. Welcome to the forum Undercover.

[pirjay]

I actually tried to register with Gmail and it didn't work.

[john cena]

How does this have anything to do with the topic?

[pirjay]

Read Pyros' post, maybe you'll understand.

[xtsubarublazin]

I can send you an invite.

[pirjay]

No, I already have like 99 invites and I can invite myself if I'd like. It's when I try to register in the atari forums with a gmail account, it doesn't work. But anyways, I'm okay like that.

[xtsubarublazin]

Oh, I see. I thought you meant you were trying to get a Gmail account. :noob:

[pirjay]

:bulb:

Btw, Subaru, I've never found the PM section yet. LOL

[xtsubarublazin]

:D

Click "Quick Links" near the top of the page, under the "Miscellaneous" section, you'll see "Private Messages."

Man, all I see is Subscribe Thread, My Profile, and Who's Online

[xtsubarublazin]

That's weird. Private Messages is the first thing listed under Misc for me. Maybe we should contact an admin or something about that. :confused:

[john cena]

Just to remind you guys again that the board isn't do that well so please help out and I think that we can maintain on getting more members to join there too.

[D:PL_Maniac]

well i just signed up yesterday

[john cena]

Thanks man. I appreciate it and you're going to be posting there too right?

[D:PL_Maniac]

yea i will be, it took me forever to get an account, now that i have one ill post all the time!

[john cena]

Thanks man. I'm glad that someone cares about the board and I hope that you have a great time posting there.

[D:PL_Maniac]

no problem, for the little time i've been having a blast, and im pretty sure that will continue

[john cena]

One more question D:PL_Maniac. When do you think you'll start posting on the board?

[D:PL_Maniac]

what board?

[john cena]

The Driver Forums. You know. The one that you registered to, my forum.

[D:PL_Maniac]

huh? your forum? what?

[john cena]

A forum is a place where you can post messages, and topics as well as polls. You should already know what it is because I can tell you now that you're posting on a forum. This is the official DPL forum so you should be able to figure out what there is to do on a forum.

[pirjay]

I think he knows what a forum is. I believe he never joined YOUR forum, Cena.

[D:PL_Maniac]

oooooooooooh so im guessing you mean all the other driver forums like 1, 2,& 3

[john cena]

Yes that's exactly what I'm saying.

[D:PL_Maniac]

when i signed up i was never planning to post in 1 2 or 3, really just D:PL i guess i will post. well i posted one new thread in driver 3 forum, but i think i will only post in driver 3 and driver 4's forums. You can expect me on driver 4's most of the time though. By the way, probably won't be on too much this week, because i got a lot of homework

[pirjay]

I think one of you is talking about the Atari forums, and another one of you is talking about Cena's forum.

[D:PL_Maniac]

oh that's great we are like talking about 2 totally different things

[john cena]

This thread is supposed to be about my forum so it's best if we just stick to the topic. It could get out of hand one day if we talk about something else rather than what the topic is really about.

[NY RealWheelman]

can i get a link john cena, i'll be happy to join and post:up:

[john cena]

Ok. Here's the link http://s11.invisionfree.com/Driver_Forums and thank you very much. I appreciate it. Register, start posting and I hope that you enjoy the board.:cool:
