What started as a splinter blog for a Rhodesian thread at another forum became a very successful and resourceful Site of its own.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Membership News</span><br /><br />These last weeks seen an influx of some new and very active Members - who contributed many original photos, documents and recollections for the NRF.<br /><br />In light of Their contribution and support for the NRF the following Members were promoted onto the "rank" of Hardcore Members: <span style="font-weight: bold;">new daddy</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">rabapone</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">Kerry M</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">bader</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">cassius</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">mrf2</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">Simon</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">mcoleman762</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">neil0841</span>. We thank Them for sharing Their precious time with Us!<br /><br />Spamming seems to be the most numerous offence on the NRF - China and India-based users ijkl970, gongfan45, hijk381, jklm443, bills01 and JAHJEHOVAH009 tried to sell us wedding gowns and fake Nike shoes all the time. These users were deleted right away.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">New Moderator</span><br /><br />NRF proudly announces Her new US Moderator, new daddy. Ever since the foundation of Our Site, one of the prime concerns were the lack of a US timezone MOD. With the arrival of a willing and able Moderator, new daddy this issue seems to be corrected. We wish Him a joyful reign ;)<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Encyclopaedia Rhodesiana</span><br /><br />We started the most ambitious project of the New Rhodesian Forum so far - creating the Encyclopaedia Rhodesia. The goal is to create a free and most possibly complete knowledge base related to Rhodesia - Her History, Culture, People, etc. Right now the project is in an embryonic form - it has a wiki (a similar system to the well-known WikiPedia) installed and a very basic framework created. If You feel that You would like to contribute to the cause of upkeeping Rhodesia's Heritage - and You are willing to help Us to refine the Encyclopaedia Rhodesiana - please send one of the MODs a PM or email!<br /><br />You can check out the Encyclopaedia Rhodesiana here: <a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net/encyclopaedia/">http://www.newrhodesian.net/encyclopaedia/</a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">YouTube NRF Channel Novelties:</span><br /><br />Our Hardcore Member, bader sent Us a film reel for publishing on the NRF YouTube channel. He had it on an old tape - He did all the converting and digitizing by local experts - so We MUST thank Him a lot for this!<br /><br />Here's the link:<br /><a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=594&p=8322#p8322"><br />http://www.newrhodesian.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=594&p=8322#p8322</a>The New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-86857779044202076632010-01-02T22:15:00.002+00:002010-01-02T22:24:07.280+00:00New FeaturesHi there Ouens,<br /><br />today i added some new features to the site - which would make it somewhat more convenient.<br /><br />1.) Because of the new and reliable host it is now possible to store attachmnts directly on the site - e.g. there's no more need for external storage sites.<br /><br />2.) A chat module is installed on <a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net">Our Site</a>. This provides Registered Users a means to interact more freely via the <a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net">www.newrhodesian.net</a> boards. This feature, however cannot be seen or used by non-registered Guests.<br /><br />3.) A Rhodesian Music Player is also installed on <a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net">Our Site</a>. This adds the possibility to listen to a selection of genuine Rhodesian music while reading and posting aboard the <a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net">New Rhodesian Net</a>.<br /><br /><br /><br />That's all for now, Ouens:<br /><br /><br />korvinagThe New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-32440095390127347452009-12-29T21:47:00.003+00:002009-12-29T22:17:17.990+00:00www.newrhodesian.netDear Ouens,<br /><br />the <a href="http://www.newrhodesian.net">New Rhodesian Forum</a> came into being three weeks ago.

New Home - In Numbers<div style="text-align: justify;">Hi there Buddies,<br /><br />first of all, let me not talk about technical stuff and the like this time. Let me discuss here something much more important - how is our Community shaping.<br /><br />I installed a statistical /analytical code into the forum engine, called '<a href="https://www.google.com/analytics/">Google Analytics</a>'. This service is free and provides detailed statistical info about our site. As of now three days' info are available, which shows the activity on our site. Unbelieveable data follows:<br /></div><br /><ul><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">321</span> Guests and/or Users visited <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/index.php">Our Site</a>. </li></ul><ul><li>The visitors together made <span style="font-weight: bold;">4544 pageviews</span>.</li></ul><ul><li>Visitors visited an average <span style="font-weight: bold;">14,16 pages per visit</span>.</li></ul><ul><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Only 28,66% turned back</span> to the site where they came from (mostly from MP.net)</li></ul><ul><li>Visitors spent an average <span style="font-weight: bold;">13:49 minutes</span> on the site <span style="font-weight: bold;">per visit</span>.</li></ul><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Now, i made a few site in my life, but never ever seen such data... <span style="font-weight: bold;">13:49 minutes average time spent</span> on Our Site means to me that all i did concerning <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/index.php">The New Rhodesian Forum</a> was worthwhile.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Thank You for reading this & contributing on the site!</span><br /><br /><br />cheers:<br /><br />korvinag<br /></div>The New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-18503087660975470372009-12-06T20:14:00.002+00:002009-12-06T20:32:36.961+00:00A Long WeekendHi there Buddies,<br /><br />this weekend was a long one, and a productive one. The <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com">site</a> is now having way more than 1.000 photos, many videos, <span style="font-weight: bold;">210 posts</span> in <span style="font-weight: bold;">27 topics</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">47 registered users</span>. This means <span style="font-weight: bold;">five times more posts</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">three times more topics</span> by<span style="font-weight: bold;"> twice the users than it were only two days ago</span>.<br /><br />We are having some quite active Users, who are starting to shape the landscape of the <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com">site</a>, and it seems to really becoming <span style="font-weight: bold;">the place to be</span>.<br /><br />On the technical side, further improvements were added to the forum engine, one of these being the support for embedding <span style="font-weight: bold;">video.google.com </span>videos.<span style="font-weight: bold;"> LiveLeak </span>embedding support is coming soon.<br /><br />Many Users not yet posted at all, but Their opinion is very important for me. So, please take Your time and let us know about Yourselves on <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com">Our New Rhodesian Forum</a>.<br /><br />cheers:<br /><br />korvinag<br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>The New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-51596693487267459222009-12-04T22:10:00.006+00:002009-12-04T22:41:46.717+00:00The First Two Days<div style="text-align: justify;">Hi there Buddies,<br /><br />i've been off to a 24h duty, so i virtually left out of the happenings on the<a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/"> New Rhodesian Forum</a> yesterday. I announced the start of the site, and had many hours to think about my new site, for example how many users there would be, will there be anyone who want to contribute... and so on.<br /><br />Today i started with some more stabilisation programming, such as making the site compatible with embedded Youtube.com videos, and fixing a so-called SQL database connection mishap. I also invented some analytical features, which could help a lot later on, to further the development (a chat and video chat feature for example) of the <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/">site</a>.<br /><br />I plan to work a lot on the site (aren't anyone with an artistic vein there to design a logo, etc ...?) this weekend, either to provide more content, and to make the forum more convenient for All of You.<br /><br />But, turning to some more interesting facts: <span style="font-weight: bold;">After only two days of operation</span> our New Rhodesian Forum has <span style="font-weight: bold;">41 posts</span> in <span style="font-weight: bold;">11 different threads</span> by <span style="font-weight: bold;">21 users</span>, of whom the latest is our old friend, the original founder of the MP.net Rhodesian Bush War Photographs, <span style="font-weight: bold;">BloodDiamondPants</span>.<br /><br />I think it could be considered a not-too-bad start for<a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/"> our forum</a>. I ask You both to start discussions aboard <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/">the site</a>, help me to get the things moving - and i think, all of us will be benefit from that.<br /></div><br />cheers:<br /><br />korvinagThe New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-26085976295076941592009-12-02T19:16:00.003+00:002009-12-04T22:37:27.531+00:00Our New Home is Ready<div style="text-align: justify;">Gents,<br /><br />after a considerable amount of downloading, uploading, programming, pimping and staring at my screen it is finally done... The forum is available for use from now on. It is, however, far away from being perfect, let alone stable.<br /><br />I will do my best to fix the problems that (surely) will be discovered, and will do my homework concerning design features. Since my conception was to escape forward and create a forum ASAP, this is all what i can do in a mere two days.<br /><br />Now i NEED YOU. Need You to inhabitate this place, to contribute and to advise me what would be the next step to be taken.<br /><br />A normal web domain name will be available later (within wo weeks), this temporary domain is the one provided by the hosting company.<br /><br />So... here is the link: <a href="http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com/index.php">http://newrhodesian.szerverland.com</a><br /><br />See You Soon on The New Rhodesian Forum !<br /></div><br /><br />korvinagThe New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-49447661291929410812009-12-01T20:06:00.003+00:002009-12-04T22:37:56.826+00:00Development in Progress<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Gents</span>,<br /><br />1.) today i uploaded the forum's software code to a host, and made some rudimentary setup & scaling. Structuring and some design features are yet to be done...<br /><br />2.) i sent a Private Message to sixty Contributors of Our Thread (more to be found in the first 65 pages - have to scan tru...), and announced my plan to start up a New Rhodesian Forum. I hope that many of You will support me in this quest.<br /><br />thx: <span style="font-weight: bold;">korvinag</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Your Feedback is Welcomed</span>: korvinag@gmail.com (Please mention Your MP.net username in Your email to help me orientate.)</div>The New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891637832309672601.post-5379508567903381632009-11-30T19:54:00.003+00:002009-12-04T22:38:19.992+00:00Picking Up the Pieces<div style="text-align: justify;">Buddies,<br /><br />for the last one year i spent countless hours in front of my computer screen contributing to Our MP.net thread - "<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Rhodesian Bush War Phtotographs</span>". Misspelled was its thread name and mistreated were the many Contributors by the so-called Moderators.<br /><br />Finally, many of Our Thread's Contributors were threatened by a ban and/or suspend and even Our Thread became endangered by a pending close-down.<br /><br />That's why i decided to start up a new forum, where pro-Rhodesian sentiment would be tolerated and anti-Rhodesian threats are non-existent. A forum for All, where there would be no outside moderators and external anti-democratic threats present. I think the MP.net mods' behavoor is very much identical to that which let Rhodesia betrayed...<br /><br />I already started building the Forum, which would be pretty much identical to the original one, but, because i feel it would be necessary to keep You All posted, i started this blog to inform All of You interested.<br /><br />Feedback is very much welcomed: please send emails to: korvinag@gmail.com , and please mention Your MP.net username to help me orientate;)</div>The New Rhodesianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16783379564510291635noreply@blogger.com0
