TheTerrorist_75 Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 G4's web team is seriously lacking in knowledge of forum software. Why they picked that crappy Jive junk beats the crap out of me. All they did was send us backward. I have reduced my time spent there quite a bit in the last year due to some of the members and poor function of the website. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheTerrorist_75 Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 The forums are no longer in Beta. Instead they are now totally messed up. Tech Support is missing August 30th. to September 2nd. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDoors Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 ... I can't get to the site ... They screw things up so often I've learned when it's inaccessable to go to the main G4TV.COM page and select the forums from there. That way you get whatever the "URL-of-the-day" for the forums might be. The new software is the worst-worst-worst yet. I can't even post; it drops paragraphs, won't interpret code correctly, etc. Not to mention it looks ugly and unreadable. Good for them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTerrorist_75 Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 They fixed a lot of the bugs. You can now browse the forums without them locking up. The HTML and Wiki Markup work. There's still a few quirks but nothing major as far as function.Now it's time to test just what I can get away with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I rarely post there at all anymoreand when I do get the time between school and work i'd much rather post here on BT or an automotive forum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbynichols Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 ... G4 is still in business ?................ go figger. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honda_Boy Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Hmmm, I haven't watched G4TV or been on there forums in forever (at least a year or more). Ever since they killed off all my favorite TTV shows, I have ignored them. Besides, the Discovery Channel and Comedy Central are far more entertaining (when I do watch TV. I mostly watch my fansubbed anime) and TennSpeed.net and Honda-Tech have become my favorite forums (and of course BT but I'm trying to point out my switch in primary interest from tech to auto). Man it's kinda hard to say but even Honda-Tech is more civilized than G4 (from what I remember). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
