Well you have all been asking that question, over and over again; 'when'!!

the time for Gaming Forums 2.0 beta is now. and if you want in this is the time to sign up. n0e has made a special user group in which he will use as a signup for the beta. once you are an official GF 2.0 beta member, you will have access to assist us in the testing's.

Please use this as your sign-up. please do not send any private messeges related, as they will be disregarded. (use the signup we have provided).

when joining this group please give a reason for joining and why you wish to help out. we are only selecting certain people (not the entire forums) so this is why we want to know what makes you a good helper and tester.

well, what are you waiting for? let's hear why you should be selected and let the testing begin!! w00t!

Also, please include browser used, other 3rd party programs you use as well for online activity. It's a beta test, we need a variety of systems to test it on to ensure compatibility with all users.

I'm requesting to be in the beta test. I can give a bit of my time, currently. I have the will to help GF as much as I can. Moreover I'm very curious to see what the phenomenon looks like.

Windows XP Home (SP2)
Mozilla Firefox 1.0 Browser
WindowBlinds 4.4
Windows Firewall
MSN Messenger 7.0 Beta
What Pulse
AVG Anti-Virus

Jeff January 18th, 2005 02:06 PM

Re: GF 2.0 Beta Sign ups!
 
ya, when I said other online oriented programs, I just meant like adware blockers, and firewall programs.. not games or other things of the sort.

*shoots self*

Ad-Aware, although this doesnt affect anything as soon as it enters the PC...

I have Kerio Personal Firewall 2.2 running, I owe my life to that thing.

Firewall in my router filters out small things, nothing major.

Thats all my constantly contacting with internet progs.

Mastershroom January 18th, 2005 02:11 PM

Re: GF 2.0 Beta Sign ups!
 
Oh... in that case SP2, ZoneAlarm Firewall, and AVG Anti-Virus free edition.

In that case I use SpyWare Guard, Sygate Personal Firewall, AVG free, and thats it... I think.

Dreadnought[DK] January 18th, 2005 02:17 PM

Re: GF 2.0 Beta Sign ups!

My bad...

I run Zone Alarm PRO firewall, Windows Firewall, and my MotherBoard is a Hardware Firewall.

I have NOD32 AntiVirus, and AVG Free.

Also, Spyware Begone, Spybot: S&D, AdAware SE. I also run No-Trace, which gets rid of cookies, historys, etc.

I doubt this is important, but I do use WindowBlinds which changes the skin of toolbars, browsers, etc.

Lookslike we will get this fancy tag:

http://www.gamingforums.com/images/tester.bmp
BMP, the horror.

see AzH's profile: http://www.gamingforums.com/member.php?u=47280

It is also mentioned in your userprofile:
Quote:

AzH is a member of the following groups: GF 2.0 Beta Tester:
Reserved for those chosen to become GF 2.0 Beta Testers
So you can check by looking if you have that fancy bmp image and if you your userprofile says you are a current member of the GF 2.0 Beta Tester usergroup.
