Reciever

From what OCN originally was to where it is now, xenforo did absolutely nothing to either maintain or promote growth of that community. That's what happens when the site gets sold twice and it's user base is tossed around and told to deal with it. OCN was my original forum to post and its basically dead to me. This was mostly due to the ignorance and lack of laptop information.

We went with Invisionboard because of the modularity that possible with it, no guarantees of course but I will put it on the list and see if it's viable for us here.

Those rules are by design. In my opinion if you must see results before voting then it's not your vote anymore. Had absolutely nothing to do with Invision,and everything to do with the Admin team actually putting that in place. Next, I'm going to kindly ask that you operate within the rules you agreed to about less than 24 hours ago. Keep it PG rated. Next I am of the mindset that we need to allow for growth in other genre's or at the very least allow it grow. This is not to be confused with becoming an all purpose forum, or LTT. In fact we looked at LTT as example of how vague we don't want to leave our sub-forums generally speaking. The ideas and movements I have in mind for the forum (I believe) would set us apart as it's something that doesn't exist on any other forum that I am currently aware of. That all being said it would require much more from the members if we were to attempt building that out. Something I will announce soon after some additional consultation and review. If it's simply a matter of guiding other NBR members here we could have a thread named Notebookreview - from the ashes or something that makes sense from a search engine perspective.

I had previously announced a couple of times that this would be coming up at 10PM CST, but I didnt factor in the members who may not surf every day. I made a small edit to provide more context.

I'd like a 13" AW laptop, had the AW13 R3 but I was a bit misled (and a bit ignorant) as it has the Fn key for Graphics switching but there was no MUX on it so it doesnt actually switch anything...I had it for a year, really liked the chassis but I cant get used to the input lag Optimus can introduce.

I remember the day of, went to school but at a certain part of the day there were no more lessons. I do remember the next day a lot of people stayed home, my mother at the time, told me that unless there were mushroom clouds just as sure as the sun rise each day I would be at school.

Also everyone feel free to discuss here and or via PM's etc etc Its a community decision, there is no reason to not talk about it. :) Core-PC sounded simple enough and NBCore a summarized reversal Core of NoteBook(review)

Good Evening everyone! The time has come to decide how we want to represent ourselves. Thanks for being patient with us! :) Chris If we have a close call between 2 or more names then we will create another thread for the final contestants where arguments can be made for what you feel would be the best name for the forum. 2/23/2022 EDIT: I have changed the header on the top of the page to reflect the new name. Nothing else has changed at this time. Both Notebooktalk.net as well as EFGXT.net will continue to point here for quite some time and as mentioned by @joluke is already in service for when we make the change to the domain.

It serves a purpose, which is why its in place. I know that the basis for this forum is not exactly standard fare, but I cant account for everyone so we will have an even playing field for everyone. (or starting point)

You want to partake in the marketplace in this community, going to need to have some skin in the game.

The issue with copying the structure verbatim is we dont have nearly the same traffic quite yet, plus I have something else in mind for Reviews coming in the pipeline.

Thanks :) I know through time I could find every model and have them listed, however despite the healthy starting point we dont have enough traffic to justify a sub-forum for every system. Ideally we would want to be able to have those threads kept in some degree of isolation so that splitting them remains a viable task without overburdening the moderators as well as Admin's. I have a few ideas still in infancy, but I would like to hear more opinions before I take any actions. BTW @Tenoroon I will get the MXM cards out back to you on Saturday, dont think I have forgotten about you! I'll PM you with the tracking number Saturday afternoon :)

I have been looking at the Sager section a little bit and was thinking it might need some love in a similar token to how Alienware is currently formatted. Forgive me, all, I am not as familiar with all the different models of Clevo/Sager/Eurocom systems.

TheReciever which was kindly changed to Reciever by @Charles P. Jefferies Registered in 2012, started posting regularly I believe in 2015/2016 after I ditched OCN.

Avid Linux user? Honestly I think Linux may get more of a fair shake in the coming years as Steam has done a lot of work with Proton as well as the steam deck running Arch. I know it probably won't 1:1 benefit pc at large but given that a lot users aren't too keen on Win11 for either practical or moral reasons, we may benefit from your experiences 🙂 @Hiew Is also an avid Linux user who has gone back to Linux full time. I hope to see more conversations on the topic around here to be perfectly honest.

I know where I can get the template, will be making an inquiry soon. Might have it up by this evening or at worst around the time I open the poll tomorrow evening.

Hammer, I'd like to reconnect you with someone you know well, Nail.

Good Evening everyone! I have been paying attention to a number of requests or oddities that appear, that need a resolution along with what current areas of the forum have interest enough to carry themselves or ones that need to be consolidated. This is by no means a permanent solution and over time we may gain more traffic in these consolidated spaces may grow to have dedicated locations once more. I know it may appear as though not much is going on the surface, however we are very much making progress in certain important bends that over time you all may come to recognize in the coming days. I am also getting feedback from various sources and trying to make the best path forward for the forum, and you all, the community are also a part of this process. We are going to be reviving the currently missing WLSIB template, as that had always been a mainstay and allows for uninformed to pick the brains of the community. Some of the forums will be rearranged and/or consolidated. The content will be retained. A number of idea's are currently in infancy, and I look forward to getting the feedback from you all as we determine its viability This Friday I will be opening a poll for what we will name the forum, I think it would be fair to leave it open for one week, unless there are zero votes for 48 hours. I have to balance the community with attempting to establish the name of the forum. With that in mind please bear in the mind the following: Anyone that has a suggestion must get it to me by Friday @ 10PM CST. Please PM me with the suggestions and we will attempt to grab the names if they pass internal scrutiny. Anyone that knows members that are here and registered, but dont surf everyday to ping them so they can make sure they get in their vote. There are many irons in the fire, and I cant wait to share them with you all! However just like how we didnt open the flood gates as soon as this forum was technically up, we will make sure it can work well here. Thats all I have for the moment, and I look forward to continued dialogue with everyone! Chris

Its on the list, I dont have the template readily available, I cant remember verbatim how it was formatted.

Yep! This has been added to the list! One thing we have had to step away from is making changes on the fly as it tends to not lend itself to documentation that we made the actual change and doubling our work. I have been creating a list of all the requests that have been made over various threads into one location. This along with temporarily increasing the limit on emoji (which is basically being substituted for likes from nbr) are the top of the list.

That is likely to be what happens unless we determine some of other odd use case worth pursuing 🙂

I thought that might be the case initially, as he still has his original role to fulfill. Spartan deserves better, if you are in contact with him please let him know that he is always welcome here. If it was purchased with HID funding it would likely be difficult long term. HID generally does well for us but a company is a profit seeking venture at the end of the day.

We have acquired some domains to be put up for a vote soon :) Still adding some to the list but I believe we will have a public vote for it relatively soon.

No its an issue on default theme the emoji's selection icon has the same color as the background. I have added it to the list of things we are working on but for reference please see here.

Its all good :) I appreciate you giving this platform a chance.
