Created a new temp place for us

https://www.facebook.com/groups/4834812269963775

I started this group for us on Facebook since they are sitting this forum down on the 31st.

If anyone knows a better one let me know.

I have class in Texas most days next week but I will be downloading and saving a few threads and see about adding them to the new place.

Maybe we can find some kind of free hoster for a new forum later on that will be there for a while.

 

I will be sharing a link to some people to check out what me and my friend have built. As long as there isnt any glaring issues will probably show it off to the forum tonight or tomorrow.

I dont know the toughbook scene that will so if you are clued in to that scene please stay in contact so you guys can move your content over as well

 

Right now we are just looking for a way to stay incontact, so the Facebook group is it.

 

There is a reddit thread that was also made NBRRefugees I think to serve as another temp spots until formal next forum is agreed upon

 

I seen they made one and posted a link for the Alienware guys, I added that one to my reddit already.

 

Ok nice just trying to keep the community together

 

I added first post on facebook group needs to be approved, but going to keep security low for now.

 

Paul,
Thank you for the FB info.
I’ll have a look.
Don’t know anything about Reditt but will check it out.
Best regards,
Kris

 

That is why I am looking at forum prices. Facebook will be fine to keep up with each other. But sorting threads and keeping the info easy to find looks like it will be issue.

 

Feel free to share and check out the forum!

EFGXT.NET

Name is a placeholder until a domain can be purchased that better captures the forum.

If you need a new sub-forum (which I believe is the case) then please PM me on the forum and I will have it made for you guys

 

Azrial texted me last night about this... I had already seen it but I jumped on the FB group late last night.

I have a bunch of Toughbooks and parts around but haven't build one for money in a long time.

I miss the good old days!

 

As do I, sold a ton of Toughbooks in the past. I'm getting old.

This is also another NBR clone pop up forum option.

Incase you need more than just for Panasonic.

 

Same feeling here Rick

 

I usually find whatever I need for my MacBook easily enough online in various articles etc. Toughbooks are REALLY niche machines. There seems to be a very small group of people that truly understand and get them. Maybe my "World View" is narrow and there are many more non english speakers hiding in Russian forums lol... But it seems like most of the English speaking Toughbook experts in the world, can be found here on NBR.

I am not sure what makes this small little sub forum work so so well. It might actually be that all of the traffic, occurs in the same area. But it also means when some wanker like myself is working on 5 different projects at once, my multiple threads take over the front page lol. But is that bad? I mean I am getting QUICK answers and responses to all of these separate threads/and problems QUICKLY, and finding them just as quickly. I have actualy knocked out today, what without this forum would have taken me easily a week to do. And as I am doing this, it is easy to answer other threads that pop up and I can help on.

Thinking out loud. It might actually be a simple format to recreate.

Anyways, I am hoping that most of the guys here hop over onto the TBT forum. If laptopforum keeps a simple fast paced subform like this though, I am probably ending up registered at both!

 

Most of the guys here are already over at TBT, we have always jumped back and forth. And mainly we have always helped each other out and don’t mind helping anyone else as long as they don’t take advantage of it.

 

We have a complete archive for the Panasonic sub forum on efgxt.net

Dont need an account to download it, but the link is over there.

 

Receiver that is AWESOME! I will actualy about to put up a thread asking about this very thing. I am glad somebody smarter than me lol is doing this successfully. I will stop trying as I am pretty sure my efforts would add to the mess and slow down other attempts. I just got pages of errors and suspected I would have to check the "ignore robot instructions" and also suspected that as a little, pushy lol.

Super cool! It sounds much more established than it was when I registered. Hopefully, I still am!

And for sure, there has to be something given back! I mean while I have half a dozen threads going right now dealign with a whole bunch of random projects at once, I know a BIG reason I get such quick responses to my questions, is I am also doing the same wherever I can for others. And while I am not nearly as smart as many of you here, I am persistent and enjoy typing it out and documenting it. So while not exactly short... There are buried answers that can help others out too. Hopefully, lol.
