Today we had a planned downtime to the forum of 2 hours. This was a slight overrun on time but well worth the wait.

We now have a new Live ShoutBox up and running on the forums for everyone to use, so please go check it out.

Other updates included : Database Clean, 24hr User Stats Available, Removal of Unused Mods, Backups

The next forum downtime will not be for a week or so. Thank you.

!! Users May Need to Re-Register

Fri Aug 20, 2010 11:32 pm | by Hot Trout | 3 comments

IMPORTANT : ALL Please Read

Earlier tonight there were some SQL database issues and as a result we had to restore to a backup from several hours previous. This issue will effect anyone that registered a new account in the forums during this period (approx 5pm GMT to 23:30 GMT). If you are unable to find your account for logging in, please just register again in the forums. If you encounter any SQL messages when using the Rom Database just use page back and continue. I will continue to work on this error and the fallout over the weekend. :typing:

Sorry for the downtime and hassle, please report all problems or issues in the forums.

Adult XXX Rom Section Added

A totally new section for the site this time. The Adult XXX Games section is an area for all games considered Adult or 18+ or R Rated depending on where you are from. In other words, all games that contain adult content. These have been placed in a special area that requires a user to have donated in order to download. The process of donating confirms their age as being 18+. This is a great addition to the collection so go enjoy yourselves :angel:

The all new Emulators Database is now officially open for users to use. This is the latest and largest upgrade to the website in many months. We fully intend to do with this database what we have already done with the Roms database. That is, to provide the largest collection of emulators ever seen before on the one site. Whats more we intend to not just provide current versions, but also historical versions of the emulators.

A huge thank you and credit needs to go to Jesse for his hard work in creating this section so well. Jesse is one of our forum mods and now the curator of the Emulators Database.

Enjoy.
