Alright, there has been much talk about which site we should use but no one has started a poll! So here you go! Vote in the poll and lets get it over with...BTW, this is about the use of the .com or geocities site.

I say .com
I really like it, but I don't know how expensive it is.
One prob with the geocities is how only the middle page is the browser.
.com is cool
They made the site that way...for the center to be the browser.
Anyway, Geocities is not all that bad, but I like www.tripod.com better.
More space, ect, ect, ect.

My favorite free provider is topcities.com
Good space for free, just 1 banner add/page.

There is really nothing to vote on since we both have websites for our own reasons.

Well the .com sounds great but it would involve someone paying for the website name and possibly renting space from a server if no one has a perm connecting pc that we could use.

They both have their advantages...but a .com would be superior.
Sorry for my absence, I haven't been able to log-in ever since that stupid hacker busted the site. I think my account was one of those "new accounts afftected," just my luck.
But alas, now I can login and continue to have fun and throw in my two cents!

Yeh now you make me feel bad.
how about this:
geocities is really cool because I'm on the member list there!
I like geocities alot, I just with that the browser was the whole page, not just the center.

Well, here's what I think. The website is the same on both sites at this point, correct? Which one is faster? Which has fewer ads? Which has more space? Which is cheaper ;)? If we have no problem paying for the .com, I think it's the obvious choice. No offense to the people who made the Geocities site, but come on :)! We have a .com just sitting there, not being used; I think we should put it to some good use.

Exactly my point. But if we have to use the geo one them I'm fine with that. I would rather have the .com one though:D

Well, I actually looked at the .com one, and I have to say it's pretty damn nice. Sorry Wraith, but my vote is going with the .com.

Well, we could update the .com one and use the geo for a backup.
just an idea.;)

I really really like the .com a lot better. The way it looks makes me want to visit the site more often. It looks very professional as well, I love the interface. .COM ALL THE WAY BABY *slaps Set's ass* :eek: hahahahhaaaaa

.com one loaded way faster than the geocities one for me. Really, I like 'em both, but the geocities one took a while to load for me. I'm on a 56k till september.
Also, if we kept the .com one how much would it cost? I like the geocities one 'cause i'm on the member list!

I understand Wraith, and i know i'd want to be involved with it if i were you too. Why don't you both share admin levels on the .com site and work towards making it the official and only =A= site. That way you both have control and you get to share good ideas. If its to be the offical one, u being the co-leader etc will mean u probably get final say anyway.

Wouldzey,
Thats what we are trying to do but Wraith has to learn how to use php ;)
As soon as he can learn to post news and stuff he knows his admin user info.

Oh, sorry about that. :blush2:
Hope Wraith's a quick learner!:D

Well, we'll see. :)
We have a small talk with Juztyn about our site at the moment. ;)

I've been going to the .com site recently...I really like it - a lot. So I think those of us who have free time should help out getting content from the old site to the .com site because it looks very professional, we are a serious PA so we should have a serious looking website which the .com outweighs the geo by far.
