Boost News: The Lucky 777 Update

Wednesday the 13th of October, 2010


BoostMB News -

The Opening Statement of Awesomeness

It's been a rough last few weeks with all the demotions and promotions and the potential downfall of BoostMB, earlier this month... however we have managed to continue on and we are all working very hard to help continue to build Boost back up to a stage of legitimate competition among the resource genre. Despite the downfalls, tomorrow it will be our 2-month anniversary which will actually be a legitimate milestone for BoostMB due to our almost near closing less than 2 weeks ago when we lost 2 of the main administration team.

Despite the milestone, at this current point in time we have no plans to celebrate the event as we have alternative plans in the pipes that we could instead be focusing on bringing more resources and community events to the community than the plan a small event of a minor milestone. We do however, have some plans in the works that i will take the time to list below regarding future services/events and a potential festival in the works.

Updates Services & "Resource Testing" initiative

I want to start this off by giving a huge thank-you to Samantha on the design team who has been a fantastic asset to the future re-building of BoostMB. The constant and fresh releases in themes and graphics have been a refreshing change from the stalemate situation, we were faced with a few week's ago. We will be all working very hard in the future to continue with the updating resources, which now takes me to the newest addition to the resource side of thing's here at BoostMB.
  • Theme Requests

That's right, you are not at all reading that wrong and after a staff discussion regarding the matter and it's potential future. BoostMB will be bringing back the theme requests service which will be monitored by our design team at this current point time and despite not having all the kinks and details having been sorted out regarding the service. We will strive to meet as many requests as possible with the best results possibly, however we will not have the direct obligation to fill all requests and this will be one of the many thing's to be brought onto the BoostMB pallet as part of our "Resource Testing" initiative.

Joinable Groups

Along with the future addition of Theme Requests, we will also be adding in a join-able group system much like the previous one that the ZetaBoards Official Resource (Etc/Etc/Etc) used to employ which will allow members of the community to join groups that will be headed by members of staff which can be used for Gaming/Community/Resource/Tutorials. These group's will have a private lounge only viewable to those specific members and the staff member in charge will be able to host events and contests with their group's, set up potential battles with other group's and even be able to tutor up-coming designers with resource tutorials and a closer helping system.

This service along with the Theme Requests will be added to the board during the Weekend Period and will be up for Service the Monday to follow.

Layout Changes & Updates

As some of you may have noticed, a small variety of Layout Changes have occurred along with a revamp of some of the descriptions and the guidelines have been tweaked here and there regarding certain rules and obligations from the Community. As this has happened, i have also taken the time to update the V.1 Theme of Boost with updated links in the footer section along with the affiliates section being updated to help with recent advertising scene. In an update to the advertising scene, BoostMB is now advertised on over 90 different forums over the Zathyus Networks.

The Festival is in Town (Not really). It's an in the work's event that was scheduled to take place quite some time ago but never made it to the public due to the lack of support and dedication by the staff team. We don't have any set Genre for the Festival but instead of focusing on a very thin genre for the event, we may take a broad appeal and set it up with a "Entertainment" theme which will have hosted events from the Gaming Industry/Tech World/Music Mania and Cinema and Television along with Celebrity and News Highlights. I did say though, that the event has no set genre at this point in time and until the event is thought-out on a more progressive basis... it's a WIP.

The Staff Update

I have noticed various topic's and post here and there regarding certain staff action's regarding matters on the forum and or otherwise and making them public rather than doing it in private. I want to stress, if you have any problems with any member of the staff team rather than making a feedback topic causing a commotion and a potential flaming which only adds a negative vibe to BoostMB. If you do have any problem's, please Pm myself or the staff member in question. I will take it up with the person in question and if necessary will address the rest of the staff team depending on the occurrence of the event and the situation. It really does no good for anyone on Boost, nor the staff member involved to be shot in the public community over a simple matter that could be resolved in seconds in a private conversation which will help cease unimportant flaming and over-exaggeration commotions.

Furthermore adding onto the Staff Update, if you need to contact an administration member regarding anything related to BoostMB. I strongly suggest you Private Message myself first, as i get on BoostMB wherever possible through means of mobile/home/work and always check and respond to Pm's within a matter of hour's and in the unlikely event that i don't respond in a day or two, check with Depthcore. Unfortunately having said that, i do have to address that i have reached my maximum month data usage on my internet plan which is capped at 100 GiG and doesn't get refreshed over for another week.... so until then, i will be able to access BoostMB at a normal rate however my internet will be a bit slower than usual and thus i might not be able to get as much or respond as fast as I'm currently on a dial-up speed connection.


Well that's it for the update edition for this week and minor updates will be moved into progression late this week due for debut as of next week.
A final thank-you to all the Staff and Community who have helped support us during this time and we hope to continue the up-hill battle in the future.

A warrior takes sword in hand,
Clasping a gem to his heart.
Engraving vanishing memories into the sword,
He places finely honed skills into the stone.
Spoken from the sword, handed down from the stone...
Now the story can be told...
