Hey Guys
« on: October 30, 2008, 02:35:16 am »
It's Trevmeister66!!!

I'm glad to see Omnimaga up and running again. Been a while since I've last been on the site (before it shutdown....about a year ago? can't remember)

I just started college this semester. WOOT for partying  ;D

I don't program on the calculator much, if at all, anymore. Don't have the time. But I do still play calc games in math class  :D

I'm looking forward to seeing Omnimaga become what it once was.

PS It's good to see some recognizable names around here.

Hey nice to see you again, seems like the old people are slowly finding us... quite a challenge with NETWizz never showing up on AIM since July (so I can ask him to fix my UTI account), I was planning to announce the site on UTI and TIFW on Halloween but I guess it will just be TI-Freakware. We're going slow though because almost the entire staff and userbase moved to college and I am busy with many projects, most being non-Omnimaga projects and I may get busier with Christmas coming and partys. Hopefully I may get able to put the RPGs back online at one point soon  though.

To be honest I doubt Omnimaga will ever become as active as it used to be though. If it does, it will not be in the next 3 years at least and even then, will TI release new interesting calcs? It may stay the second most active english TI forum in the entire community for a long while, but it will be far behind UTI, which is first. Many factors such as what happened, the userbase aging and I doubt the world economy, especially in USA, will help. Instead of buying calcs, parents will probably keep more money in case so students will need to borrow calcs from school even more (which doesn't come with link cables most of the time) so even less people will discover what can be done on calcs or will not be interested in coding if they can't share their work.

I hope you stick around for some time anyway though and maybe eventually if you get more time start coding stuff again.

Yeah, projects can be time consuming  :o

heh i like these smilies...too bad we don't have all the ones we used to  :'(

Yeah I only found this site again because I just randomly thought about it, and wondered if something ever happened to this place, and sure enough, something has. Omnimaga is alive and well.

I don't think I'll go back to programming the clac again. I'm starting a big project with a couple other people (FPS for the XBOX360) which will take most of my programming time, and I have college things to do, like sleep, party and not study. But who knows, I might pick up my calc, dust off the keys, and see if I still know how to program the thing.

But it's good to be back. Now if we could just get some peanuts....  ;D
