Introducing Site 3

submitted by qntmfred on Monday, August 22 2011 at 5:12 PM

TWW has been around a long time. So has the software that it is built on. In one sense, the fact that tww continues to work so smoothly today is a testament to the software's resiliency. But on the other hand, tww does have its fair share of bugs and long-missing features. Plus, we do things a lot differently on the web today. We have better web development technologies, greater understanding of best practices, crisper designs and more sophisticated experiences.

Over a year ago, I started a new project to rebuild TWW from the ground up. That effort has come to be known as Site 3. Today, I am sharing Site 3 with all premium subscribers and one guest each. Over the next few months, I hope to get your feedback, suggestions and probably some bug reports too. Come check it out at http://site3.thewolfweb.com.

Oh, and to celebrate this first step toward the new tdub for a limited time I am offering a LIFETIME premium subscription option. Support the site and get premie while the getting is good.

Thanks,
qntmfred

so how am I supposed to know if I want to buy into a premie for site3 if I can't even check the site out? I know like 3 tww'ers irl and I'm sure their guest passes or whatnot are spoken for. why don't you do like a week free trial or something so people can make up their minds whether or not to go premie.

You hear that?

qntmfred thinks you have a life expectancy of 65.83 years (actually that's pretty generous). MAKE YOUR TIME.

8/22/2011 7:25:30 PM

How will the switchover work? One day I wake up and it's just the new UI?

Also, I propose a user purge. If they haven't logged on in over X years and have no posts, time to purge the names.

8/22/2011 7:39:20 PM

oh ok.


once again making sure it's not just me .

8/22/2011 7:40:53 PM

Oh okay; Premium Palace is still there.. just not in the left sidebar for some reason: http://thewolfweb.com/message.aspx
It's also in the drop down for changing sections.

8/22/2011 7:49:54 PM

SOMEONE HOOK ME UP AS YOUR GUEST

8/22/2011 9:41:11 PM

Call me old fashioned, but I prefer site 1.1 over site 2 and especially over site 3.

8/22/2011 10:06:49 PM

I'll be your guest!

8/23/2011 7:24:01 AM

My job blocks thewolfweb but not brentroad, so I can only access site 3 from home.


It's probably for the best

8/23/2011 9:08:10 AM

man oh man.

i still can't log in, but cody can.


i smell a conspiracy

8/23/2011 9:14:42 AM

here's who I know of that is still unable to access site 3:
jtw208
Joie
wdprice3
zorthage
Fry

who else can't get on because of an "Invalid Login" ??

what happened to site3.brentroad.com?

Is site 3 going to have a photo gallery?

8/24/2011 2:46:03 PM

Lifetime premie, FTW! Done and done.

8/24/2011 9:11:31 PM

We can't get like some screen shots or something? Just a dick tease and assurance that site3 is better than the current tdub?

8/25/2011 7:44:19 PM

Never was a premie till the lifetime offer!

8/25/2011 8:18:57 PM

Me either.

8/25/2011 9:22:36 PM

I will sign up for lifetime when I reach 10k posts as a celebration, or something like that.

8/26/2011 7:13:37 PM

the smiley faces everywhere are driving me insane

8/26/2011 7:58:47 PM

how bout fixing the link to "LIFETIME premium subscription" so people don't have to change the god damn address to whatever they are logged in to. LEARN YOUR CRAZY CODE, DAMNIT

8/30/2011 3:13:20 PM

So what happens to TWW after ~66 years?

9/7/2011 11:16:20 PM

So, what's it look like premie folks? Did he tighten up the graphics a little bit on level 3?

9/9/2011 9:52:05 PM

So...checking it out to see a lame-ass login screen is really not much of a teaser. What is there to draw people to site 3 other than promises of something better?

9/11/2011 8:56:50 PM

It's the future, fool.

9/11/2011 9:39:40 PM

it would be nice to at least get some sneak peak of whats goin on and not using the supposed change as a ploy to sell premie memberships

9/14/2011 4:06:06 PM

So we got Site 3, when can it go live?

11/8/2011 12:03:26 PM

guess it was abandoned

12/26/2011 1:16:09 PM

still works as of this moment

6/5/2013 12:34:58 PM

so this thing is dead and buried then, huh?
