None of our affiliated sites have put links up for the forum yet. Once they do we should start getting some new members.

Hi, my names Loire. You probably remember me as Loire, over at GR.

Six years I was with her... but I think I've moved on pretty fast.

Greetings.

I am Cheeky Devlin.

I posted as devlin1983 then Cheeky Devlin over at the good ship GR since September 2002.

I was a little known, but reasonably active user. That will probably not change.

That is all.

How'd you find the internet's equivalent of the Mos Eisly cantina?

I thought about using a new username for this site, but I felt that the 'Oxx' brand was something worth preserving.

I am also a seasoned lurker over at GR, but like many others, I will now be making a consious effort to post more.

I think there's going to be alot of new faces doing a similar thing.

Pfft, no good, it doesn't count if you found the site through the old GR, that just makes you like us.

Oh well, this is the first day after all. I'm sure our notoriety will spread.

(Welcome to the forums though).

The major worry is we don't get any new members and the site runs out of money.

If we can get an affiliation with at least one moderate-to-large gaming website or other forum, that should sort us out for new members, right?

If I need to introduce myself... I am another seasoned veteran of GamesRadar.

How are we promoting this new forum besides via the old? Surely new members will be hard to come by now more than ever? I demand a letter published or feature in at least EDGE, CVG, GM, GamesTM.

I was actually thinking the same thing. Surely after a while some will start leaving and others will post less as the novelty wears off.

If you want new peeps, approve this cleverly disguised news story.
