Re: The past, present, and future.

Hey FrOoGle! These are all good points. Indeed much of the community has long ago shifted off to other clones, but this forum has stayed anchored to Frets on Fire and FoFiX. Other forums have covered the other games and most have since come and gone. I personally don't feel that there is a feasible ...

Re: New users moderated posts

Hi. Long ago, we did have it set up so that those with 3 or less posts needed mod approval to post or something. I recall it confusing the users and being a lot of overhead for the mods. Things are different now though. It's a good idea, but I don't feel the bots are frequent enough to enable such a...

Re: Bro what is with the Gender selection on this site?

haha, you're right. That list is 10+ years old, only viewable at sign-up and totally ridiculous.

Re: Problem with sending PMs

Curious. I was able to replicate this to some extent. Clicking submit will bring me to the Preview screen, but subsequently clicking Submit will actually submit.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

Re: New domain! FretsOnFire.org

Just in case anyone was interested, any links to the old website now go to some (spam) site. Indeed. That was expected, but sooner than we hoped. If you (or anyone) comes across old links that can be updated, please do so. We've already covered this site, most of the FoF Wiki, most of Google's sear...

New domain! FretsOnFire.org

Since 2008, the fretsonfire.net domain has been owned by a company specializing in domain squatting and SEO stuff. They picked it up primarily to make money, but were nice enough to pay for domain and hosting fees all these years. This year, we decided that we'd like to purchase the domain and move ...

Re: R.I.P Frets on Fire Fan Forum

Guess what?! We got the domain back! The Phase Shift guys said it smelled funny, like beer and sweat. Sorry, we can't keep the April Fool's style. We used to have 4 styles, including a similar blue one. They became a real pain to maintain, so we need to keep it down to one. All credit for the idea a...

Re: Wiki post error!

Yeah, it just started working again (for no good reason, too). It feels slower than usual, so I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks for letting us know here and for the others that PM'd me. :thumbup:

Re: The Great Wikidot update of 2016

On the topic of Wikidot, I have a complaint. The "S" page apparently has become too large to add anything to it. A technical restriction imposed by Wikidot, I figure. It hasn't (yet) become a priority, but perhaps we could pull the wiki over to fretsonfire.org and host it "locally.&qu...

fretsonfire.org Forums are back online!

For those of you that have joined prior to 2016, you'll notice everything looks a bit different! Here is what has changed: - The obvious one is the forum style. We've (finally) abandoned the "eye bleeding" red style that we've used since these forums first opened. This was created by wolfe...
