Xboxer360.com Website and Forums

[Achea Shadow]

Right guys and girls I feel its about time that I made an appearance and explained why I have been MIA.

I have recently started a web design firm with my partners brother and it has freed up a lot of my time to concentrate on Xboxer, although it hasn't been apparent on the forums I have been planning a way forward to push Xboxer360.com into the future.

Last year I opened up VGR and dedicated all my free time into trying to get it to work and now I feel its at a level that it can fully sustain itself with the help of all of the VGR staff who are doing a wonderful job! Since I opened VGR I let Xboxer360.com suffer in a massive way and the forums have seen a backlash of that.

I have now recruited 2 new staff members who are truly dedicated to Xboxer: Shroger and Berrytastic. With these 2 guys on-board alongside myself, Sky and Scoob we are truly dedicated to making Xboxer360.com the best Xbox 360 website in the UK.

Now you may of noticed last week the forums were updated and the theme has defaulted back and is a little broken, please have some paitience with me while I work out the new template system and create a design for it, the estimated time is March 1st.

This brings me back onto the subject of Xboxer360.com... I recently hired a professional logo designer to create a new logo and branding for Xboxer360.com and the logo has now been completed - to view this logo please visit http://twitpic.com/10vrji and let me know your thoughts.

With the new logo we are going back to the drawing board and going to redevelop the whole of the main website to bring it into lines with how we see the future. Once the design has been completed we will role out the changes and possibly run a beta test for all of our loyal members.

Now is your chance to have you say, please tell us what you want from Xboxer360.com and the forums because at the end of the day you are what the site is about.. Just simply reply to this thread or if you have any ideas for the site that you think may be original and likely to be stolen then please email me dave@xboxer360.com - I try to ensure that I reply to every email I get.

Once again thanks for sticking with us and if you have any questions then please drop me an email.

Oh and by the way - we past our 2nd birthday a few weeks ago so we may do something to celebrate when the rebranding is done!

All the best guys!

Sounds like your doing a good job, i have seen some flaws in the recent forum change but im sure it will all be sorted. I'd maybe like to see more gaming nights and in-game tournements but i think that should be more down to members on the forums organising them. Something on the forum for people to take part in daily, maybe daily polls based on gaming related things. More competitions and giveaways are always nice but i understand that you pay for all of the prizes so i know we cant expect 10,000 MSPs in giveaways every month.

But other than that, if the forum can get back to how it was then it would be great.

More gaming nights would be ace but again your stradling a fine line between forum and clan there.

I personally think that the amount of competitions for such a small site is excellent, the only nit pick I have is that we are rarely told who the winners are and I need to know people to glare at!

Sounds like things are progressing for you Achea, good luck with it all
