A stupid-question if I might ask: What is the forum about? Is it themed around something (like VHFans is around VH)?

**CanyonCarver** · 09-04-2003, 10:15 AM

Maybe it's like Seinfeld, a forum about nothing!
Just kidding!

Well I went there and it seems to be up and running...

Well not yet...I have yet to really nail down a theme. As of right now I am playing around with php and HTML. It might be geared towards Technology and Jeepin/Off-Road. [img]images/smilies/dunno.gif[/img]

Hi there,

I thought from the name (m-payne), that it was a Forum dedicated to the Max Payne computer game by 3DRealms.

But the name is just a coincidence is it ? You're not theming it on this game.

Nope. It is all by chance. I registered that name, because my first name is Matt (and my wife's is Margot) so the name fits. (Plus mpayne.com and mpayne.net were taken [img]images/smilies/icon_ball.gif[/img] ) In reality this is just a personal web site dedicated to anything my heart desires...maybe even nude women [img]images/smilies/icon_eek.gif[/img]

The forum software has a setting for allowing google to search the site....I might try to use that to see if it will pull info from it when there are more posts, etc.

If the site grows I wil have to move it to a dedicated server with some real bandwith...right now its hosted off a cable modem at my home. [img]images/smilies/icon_thumb1.gif[/img]
