So I can make this official now ... the new Smashing Pumpkins O-Board is coming alive in a few weeks. Now we've got a pretty good little community here, so are you planning on heading back? I'll be between both places, given the work Im doing for the band ... but yeah, I hope you guys will glance over every now and then ... keep the Aussie flag flying over there. My latest SP article covers the history of the old O-Board and the transition into the new: www.smashingpumpkins.com/pages/articles/new-oboard-1dce8fbf

I'm apprehensive about another O-board. But I'll register and probably lurk.

Lurk only...... if that, i wasn't a fan of the last board. The few times that I visited it I found the way that some members carried rather annoying so I am happy to stay here in this lovely little patch of australia.

oh you guys hehe ... but yeah, I'll be there keeping an eye on the crazy kids and contributing where I can. Its not going to be like the old days where I would rack up 100 posts in a day. psst ... yeah, Im an admin type. sunk2zero circa 2000 would be freaking out right now! ... 2009 sunky is also freaking out.

Will be a lurker probably, I was Siva_NZ on the O-board back in the old days but I was younger then and was more into the whole forum scene. Theres just not enough new info or news to chat about every day now. Hopefully Netphorians stay put

I wonder just how many people will go back? If a lot of people are happy with their separate forums, could struggle. But i guess the forums will be made up with all the people who leave comments etc on the site.

Everyone who gets pushed off Netphoria, everyone who hates the vibe there but goes there because it's usually one of the best sources etc... will end up back there.

it seems like a weird time to open the board up during a 'rest' time in the pumpkins

I saw the notice up on sp.com a few days ago saying that the board is coming back really soon. I will go there, it wont take the place of ozphoria for me, but I will go there as she what is happening.

its not live yet guests can see it, but its not live yet. (i think how the countdown works is for the US ... and not us) ... either way. Should be later today or maybe tomorrow for us

what was the point of counting down to being able to SEE the board, shouldn't the countdown have been to when we are able to use it?

Post by Josh on Feb 1, 2009 17:31:37 GMT 7

Day One is proving to be interesting to say the least. A lot of boundary testing, especially in the general forums.
