Looks like some new renovations are going on around here...right now, everything is text for me...and earlier the old skin was gone, but there was a new (and cool I must say) logo in the top left corner for CellPhoner.
Just wondering what was happening?

Everything should be back to normal. We wanted to move the forum to cellphoner.net/forums

Now if we can just get everyone to come back, I have no idea what happened to this forum, it was going really great a while ago, I hate with a passion Howard's Forum.

I wont comment on the HowardForums, however I will agree with you that we need to get this forum up and working again.
I think that a system of points, or money, would work well. It would make posting more fun =)

Yes, since we changed the forum to /forum all the pages indexed in google get 404's so all of our visitors from google wont be able to find us for a while. Just keep spreading the word!

I always feel so dirty after I have visited Howard's Forum.

This place is nice, I like it and hope it can make a comeback. I try and stop in a few times a week but when I do not see any new activity I think maybe everyone has abandoned the site.

I don't know if points or money will help, I don't need to be bribed to be here, other places online I regularly haunt don't pay or give points, it's a matter of the sites content and mix of people. If the people are there and having a good time you don't need to pay them to show up.
