OT: So what do you think about the new board?

[Mercenary]

With the amount of traffic we were getting on SportNetwork it was inevitable that the board would have to be moved at some point.

I dont know about anyone else but i was getting seriously annoyed with the amount of times SN was really slow to access or totally offline. Over the VB series i've found that quite a few times it slowed down a lot.

As for the new board it can become a website rather than just a forum and i think its a much more positive thing to have a uniquely Pakistani presence on the web as in PakPassion.net, rather than being 'part of' a community of sports related forums!

So what does every1 think about the new board?

[Officer Barbrady]

I agree.

[Amjid Javed]

the nes site looks awesome!

[Mercenary]

do u like the layout of the posts? i designed them

[Muddaser]

Very impressive!

Saj, is this board a merger with the PCN lot?

NOPE, The Merger was called of.

[Team Slayer]

i like it a lot :-)

who exactly did all the good work? hats off to you guys! also, thanks for remembering to register my user name :-)

[Naveed]

Very professional

[catwoman]

I really like this new layout, it's a good change but the SN smilies were better.

Mona copy the SN smilies you liked and send them to PakPassion.net we can add them.

[Mercenary]

well mona if u have any smilies u like then just ask for them to be added in the smilies post i made

[umerz]

i think the back ground shud be colored plain white looks so dull rest is superb

[Officer Barbrady]

Mudd, what is PCN ?

Exactly what I was going to say.

We need a colorful background, white is too boring.

Good job, you guys!

[the true passionist]

great work
!!!!

[Uzi]

So is this where all the pak passioners will be posting stuff? So we shouldnt post anythin on the old site??

[Civil]

Great job guys!!, hope everyone transfers easily from the old site

[ZM]

best site ive been on

[Mercenary]

yeah Uzi the old siteis now defunct this one is 100% pakistani

[Sage]

I'm happy with the move, but I'm a bit nostalgic for the old colors. White hurts my eyes

You racist.

[pakistani pride]

I like it but the older one was different then other sites !

Maybe i have to get used to it !

As usual I am on my own again! not as bad as I first thought but not as good.

[Mercenary]

well if anyone has any suggestions they can add them to the suggestions forum!

[Geordie Ahmed]

Very good work!

I gotta admit i liked the look of the old site much better, its the main reason i never left!

Like some ppl mentioned above i think a white background is boring, a light green wudnt be too bad!

[aDaM]

gr8 site saj!

[Schiller]

GA

it will take a tad bit of time to grow into it and ofcourse white needs to be changed but which shade of green that is the q? the one you get when your beloved dines elsewhere or the kind you get when you say a healthy amount of dough?

[Kean0]

I dont know why but i feel slightly sad, i miss the "look" of the old site, but this is alot quicker.

God work on the design Merc, *pats ya on the ed*

[Schiller]

refersh it a 100 times and youll get into it I hope

[Khalil]

Sportnetwork once banned me for making anti-war statements...

At least least now we don't have to worry about external forces trying to control our minds

The board looks good and I have no doubt that this will become the number one (uno numero) Pakistani cricket forum

[Toony™®]

growing to like it.

maybe we can have vidoe thread on this website maybe even links to torrents.

i agree it will take time, im already getting used to it!

i liked the green used for PP but i understand we should move forward so any light green would do (as lon as its not bright)

[Hussain]

first thread of TIme pass


bump

[Raz]

Its been over a year since the move from sportnetwork and look how far we have come, how much recognition PP has recieved. Well done to all!

[Raz]

Actually I don't think I have grown at all, although whenever I see someone after a while they always tell me that I have and then follows the traditional jokes about tall people.

[MIG]

Comming back on topic, I think me, entra and Ron have done a good job on the forum and the forum has been well supported by very good management from MIG, Merc, Kashif, Saj, Oxy and very recently Daoud. Also special mention of the likes of feather, waheed and the ever green comma who did a pretty good job when the board first started. Oh yeah who can forget the wonderfull diverse members we have, I think that covers everyone, if I have missed anyone please forgive me.

[MIG]

We forgive you.

[Raz]

Yup some of them were funny and did provide us with good entertainment, I am sure all of you would remember the great Medium Pace with his wonderfull haircut.

And GM? Has he been confirmed as a troll yet?

[Officer Barbrady]

This forum is incomplete without the one and only ATYS posting.

not sure everyone would agree with that. Wherever he went the word "racist" followed him.

[Officer Barbrady]

I don't know about that but he surely made things interesting. There were major disagreements quite often, and I was one of those who tended to disagree with him. But interesting fellow.

[z10]

Atys?

I thought ATYS was a good poster - at times used to get a bit heated and perhaps expressed himself in the wrong way BUT he did bring passion to the board

[HAFRIDI]

He was a pretty good poster, what happened i cant remember?

[Hussain]

is this turning out to be an obituary thread

[Farhad]

[zushy_786]

[Farhad]

He was irretrievably confused and weird. Was a Pakistani born and bred, yet possessed the insolence and beghairtee to mock the folks he himself derogatorily called "desis". Who can forget his shameful utterings in those heated arguments with Comma and so many when he continued to dig a deeper hole for himself? Yuk!

And he was blind in his hatred and bitterness for Akhtar too.

Good Riddance!

[Farhad]

He did provide many light moments of pure comedy too. Yah, what a squealer!

[Rob H]

I miss the good old fights on PP. There was a classic one in the cricket forum AJ was involved in.

why do you think i thought he was a good poster?

[nafajafam]

Haven't seen AJ for a while. Any ideas?

[Farhad]

Originally Posted by Geordie Ahmed why do you think i thought he was a good poster?

I indeed had a fair idea, I must say!

[zushy_786]

Originally Posted by nafajafam Haven't seen AJ for a while. Any ideas?

erm, he's been banished to the caves where he can take out his anger on ******** malik, mota pait bob, inzi, and where he can come up with a gene to make all pakistani players perfect

[Officer Barbrady]

But he had a bit of a never say die attitude. Kept coming back... and thus kept things interesting..credit for that.

Comma (and Farhad) were also huge fans of his.
