    So, as you probably already noticed, we made some major changes to the main site and here on the forums. The changes to the forum (switching from vBulletin to Drupal) were not quite what we were expecting, and didn't go as planned, so we went back to vBulletin, and that's what we are running now - vB4 with CMS on the main page. I know some of our older, longtime members have left, but I'm hoping you all give us a chance again, and help rebuild and make this community what it once was in the past.

    *Note: You can login using your old username/password (old vBulletin one, before the change to Drupal) or use the password reset option to create a new one.

    Feel free to contact me if you have any trouble with that or logging in.

    *edit, it's come to my attention that some users are not receiving emails when using the password reset option - working on getting this resolved as we speak.

    Wow. It's been a long time. I come back to a drastic but a nice change to the forums. I'm sure some the older members will start to appreciate the forums in due time. :)

    Nice to finally see a familiar face ;)

    It's been a while, and things have been tough here, since it's been fairly slow, but doing what we can to hopefully get some of our old regulars back :)

    Great to see the forum get back on its feet, it has been a slow few months. Sad to hear some the of the regular older members leave but hopefully they will notice the new MGF and come back :).

    Yep, working on a few, and will bring back the "MG Classic" (Old black one) again as well :)

    Anything specific you have in mind or would like to see?

    Hmmm let me see :D maybe the style MGF used to have on the old forum where you had the pictures of the Characters from different games with the white and blue background. Thanx. :)

    Hello people!
    I thought this place had died a death but I decided to have a quick look and what do you know?
    The forum's not only back on track, but there's a bunch of old timers in here too!
    Great to see you guys posting again and lets hope everyone remains active!
    Thanks Vile.
    It's nice to see the old place up and running again and seeing the MGF logo back on my favourites bar!

  26. Aivoton

    Hai guise, what's going on in here?

    I must say, i completely quit MGF when you changed to Drupal. It's only because i hit my bookmark by mistake, i found out that you've switched back to vBulletin, and what a great descision :D

    I will come back more often now, and be more active. I hope new people join and stay here.

    Oh and Sti FlyBy, you've got mail in a sec.

    Arghh. Don't talk about summer vacation. I get mine only to the half of the next week and it will be a rather short one (10 days). I I'm working round the clock to finish a job that came my way (as a freelancer you grab what you can, right?!). This little job cost me a month with long hours (12-14 hours/day), but it pays well, so i can't really complain. Next week-end I'll go to a Sisters of Mercy concert and then the highlight of the week: Maiden.

  45. lowestseries

    Welcome back m8 its been awhile :) yeah after mgforums.com they moved drupel but lost even more members but the forum went back to vbulletin and is alive again and the old school are coming back :)
    Anyways what have you been up to?

  46. Random

    I've just been really busy with work and everything to be honest, I'll admit I did kinda forget about this place once mgforums.com went down plus the community seemed to well just evaporate really, so I didn't see the point in sticking around.

    Alas for some reason I randomly remembered about MG and came here to check it out only to find the forum had moved and seeing some old faces are still here I may as well stick around. :p

    Anyone got a PSN account? I need a new playing buddy. ;)

    Same thing here.. I was on the forums practically for hours during my uni days.. Had a get together last week with my class mates and though i'd check here.. :D

    But it is suspecious that a lot of old faces suddeny remembered the forum.. Me, you, B2P, Saugrist... All within a space of a week.

    Vile! What have you done? I suspect miind control! :O Lol..
