EDIT
See if you can spot the typo in my post. First to find it wins a cookie.

You guys realize now this thread is doomed to the same fate as the "Thread locks too soon" thread right? Now this thread has to live as long as allegro.cc.

The threads that never close.

It has to become a personal welcome thread where are noobs must obligatorily post hello allegro forums replies.

We should have ML pin this shit. xD

Arthur Kalliokoski : You do realize you're the last surviving admin of the allegro.cc forums right? Or LennyLen, are you still admin? I'm sorry, but this site is getting severely outdated. Not that its not functional or anything, but ML seems too busy with his little tyke and his life so that he can't spend as much time being our Fearless Leader as he used to. I still remember when he ruled with an Iron Fist^TM.

I wish there would be a private repository of the allegro.cc forum code so we could preserve this site forever if we need to.

EDIT : OT

Edited. that was a little harsh. didn't mean to come across that way.

Yes, but we need someone who can access and change content on the site. The files page is so far out of date it drives new users away from allegro because none of the binaries there work when they try to use them and none of them are up to date. The news page is. Wait for it. Nearly a year old now. Half the depot games don't work because they forgot to include the dlls with their releases and didn't release source code. The code parser links to very outdated docs, when there are new ones at liballeg.org. I asked ML to work on that, and I doubt he has time to do so, so I haven't pushed it. It's time to change, adapt, or die. That's the way I see it.

I love it! Hmmm.... we need an Allegro game where you build a wall. Maybe a competition to do that.

As for the depot on here, it is limited to like, 10 megs I think? Something like that, can't fit my games into it. Seems rather small but... my Deluxe Pacman 1 game should be in there, though I don't recall which version, I haven't updated it in there in a while, mainly due to size limitations, but it was statically linked so no DLLs required (part of why I prefer statically linking, less to forget).

I am not a fan of that place. There seems to be people constantly hovering around just looking for "bad questions" they can tag as duplicate or some other way. People with no life what so ever. I even had people edit my posts for some stupid reason. It feels very snobbish and I try and avoid it like the plague.

I have to say, I like the more open atmosphere in here. I'll take the good with the bad just to keep it more open and less snobbish.

All in favor of making LennyLen an honorary administrator say "aye".

Aye!

iEye!!!

Do we have any Mexican members, who could make it and pay for it?

I was never an admin either, the "Second in Command" was just a joke. And you can also see by my avatar that I'm just another noob.

All in favor of promoting (demoting???) Gideon to last in command say "aye".

Aye.

Do you want to be last in command instead?

Me too. In secondary school a colleague wrote a pretty cool triva game with Allegro. I wanted to know how he did it so I could make my own games and he pointed me to allegro.cc.

So I guess even before Allegro.cc started me on my career as a programmer, technically it was Goodbytes (his a.cc handle) who introduced me to my future career as a programmer.

Same

Yes!!! Yes!!! Yes!!! Let's Make Allegro Great Again!!!
