Hey guys!
This is going to be more a less a quick news update post. BP Forums has been through its share of struggles. There is constant spam that needs to be dealt with, backups that need to be made, users that need to be pleased, and I still don't think everyone has recovered from the mass data wipe that occurred some time ago.
Fortunately, however, BP Forums has been rebuilding! We have developed a strong user base of a few people, and we are getting plenty of visitors. The most important thing is to keep content flowing. Not only does this attract new members, but it keeps the forum fun! This content doesn't have to be programming or computing related! There is an off-topic section for a reason!
With that being said, I recently upgraded all websites that are owned and operated by Brandonsoft to run on their own Virtual Private Server. This gives me complete access to everything that I would ever need as a "web-admin" while making my websites faster than ever before! Unfortunately, speed comes at a price. The VPS is not cheap. So, in order to counter the cost of this VPS, I have created a series of ads that will display on BP Forums, my business blog, and my personal blog.
If you do not want to view these ads, you may use an ad blocker. Personally, I recommend Ad Block Plus, as it has worked very well for me. However, if you would like to support this forum and help keep it running, I suggest that you don't use an ad blocker.
I am only hoping for forward motion with this forum, and together, I believe we can accomplish it! Feel free to post interesting news, reviews, questions, and solutions that you have found! Feel free to share the latest memes and jokes. Feel free to learn. Feel free to have fun.
