All Activity

Always happy to help!

Thanks, end of the school year was crazy and I really need to get this back into a habit of checking in daily!! This summer I will definitely start making a push and will definitely take you up on that!!

Excellent! I'm not much active in "The Community" anymore outside a few shared acquaintances. If you need more content or perhaps help with social media (once we get to that point) I'm more than happy to help!

Nothing at the moment outside of just letting people know we are back. I don’t want to be pushy with it though, just as opportunities come up for it 😀 I plan to start making more posts and just be consistent which will help bring in some activity!

I definitely need to get back in the habit of checking in regularly which also means do better about posting more..lol. I’ll be starting to get more active with my routine here, just need to get those old habits back 😀 As more posts are made hopefully we can start driving some traffic here!!

If there is anything I can do to help breathe life into this place, please let me know!

The past couple of months have been insane as our sports teams did well so our pep band travelled a ton and coaching volleyball along with a few of my sound business gigs but things are settling back down. I plan on getting the finishing touches situated and hope to start getting the name back out there. I just want this place to be a relaxing home for those who love this path! Social media is great but having a place where you don't have to worry about your data and all the negativity that can sometimes go with social media we need a place where everyone can just kick back, have some good conversations, and some fun!! I may have times where life gets crazy like all of us but I am not going anywhere and neither is this site, it will be the home that will always be there for you!!

Hey, welcome back and I feel much of the same!! I have slacked off on things a bit but not going any where!! Welcome back and hope to slowly see new life back on the site!!

Ever since, I saw TJW come back I've made it a point to come back here. Even though I was a Jedi before coming to the first iteration of this site, this was where I found my home. I made friends here, a family. Ever since the sun set on the first TJW, it never strayed far from my thoughts. How can one truly forget one's home? So here I am, nearly 20 years later, still a Jedi. I owe a lot to this place, no matter what form it takes. I will do my best to help breathe new life into it once again. Please let me know how I can help! MTFBWY.

So I enjoyed relaxing a bit more than I expected…digging back in on things just to put in the finishing touches but overall everything is working!!

Some good news…as far as I can tell all the bugs I have come across have been fixed. If you see any please don’t hesitate to let me know!!

I had to have some minor surgery this past week along with our school concerts but now that is all in the past I am hoping to finish up the last few things!!

I have a crazy week coming up this week as it’s concert week at school and just being a musician this time of year, lots of gigs! There was a new update for the site software so some of the bugs should be decreasing!

Was able to cross off a few more things, hope to have most of it done over the next week!!

I did just want to quickly mention that this site is completely mobile friendly! On iPhone, when using Safari you can in the share sheet add it to your Home Screen. From there it will act almost like its own app and it should also show notifications. I know Android has a similar option, just not sure how it is for adding it to your Home Screen. No special app is needed for it to work which is really nice!

I know since I have been around in the Jedi community it has been quite turbulent for many websites including sites of my own like this one!! I can’t speak to other sites but only about myself, but I was much younger and still getting my fee under me in life. Those times can make it extremely difficult, especially when finances are also involved, not a lot, but when you are struggling in getting a career going and just making young and stupid decisions, things happen..lol. All of that combined led to my own instability and to the members and friendships I made back then I am truly sorry!! I hope you are open to second chances and to hopefully get back into a community if you have been without one for a while!! I am in a much different and better place in life and this is the right time for me to do this, plus as I’ve mentioned in a few other posts, I miss it!! I have made an investment and I plan to make this site grow to really become a community and an online hub for Jediism and Jedi around the world! This is not just a couple year venture to move on but with some things I have put in place along with what I have learned from the past, this site is now here for the long haul. The system I invested in has the potential for growth and can do many different things so making this site what it needs to be for the community will be very easy…and fun! Again, for older members I hope to see many of you back and hope you are open to a second chance and for new members I have no met I welcome you to the site and hope you decide to join in!!

I did just want to quickly post, this site is here for the community so I am always open to feedback, things we can do better, or ideas of new features!! I can’t promise I’ll be able to put in place every suggestion but I will do everything I can to try and make it happen!!

I just have to say and wanted this to be my first post in this section, it’s good to be back!! I know no one is here yet but in time there will be and I am looking forward to having some great discussions again and hanging out with like minded people!!

Hope everyone has a great day with family and friends!!

The way this community is going to be run will be very simple! There will be no team of moderators or any “council” to make decisions if issues come up. As they say, the buck stops with me! The rules will be simple as I am a huge proponent of the KISS (keep it simple silly) method!! I want things to remain fun and community oriented which will help promote great discussions and allow members to enjoy themselves while on this site. With that being said, some discussions I know can get intense and in the heat of the moment things happen. Please keep these community rules in mind throughout the site! If any issues arise, I will deal with them as quickly as possible so we can all move on and get back to the goals of this community. I also will not deal with the issues publicly, any members causing issues will be dealt with privately and will be expected to stay private! Community Rules Welcome to our online community!

This is a running list of things I need to finish on the website just so everyone can see where the rough edges still exist! Finish up a couple of the web pages Finish adding to the sidebar, below content on the homepage Finish adding to the sidebar on the forum Create the footer throughout the website Setup the Jedi Library Setup the Clubs section Finish creating badges Website history Won’t be possible to website software reaches full release which should be soon! Have badges show on profile in the forum along with other information

As I mentioned, this is a beta version of the website software. They are close to having it fully ready to go but it means there are still a few bugs in it. Since we are a new site I figured we might as well go with the latest software instead of building the site on the older software and then a few months later having to overhaul everything. Please post in this forum or post any bugs you come across because I do report them. Thanks!! Confirmed Bugs Cover photos in your profile or blog will not reposition correctly. When you upload a cover photo for your profile and try to adjust it’s layout and hit save, it pops to the top of the photo instead of where you wanted it! A few sidebar items do not show properly to guests (will be fixed in the next beta)
