Changes To The Blog?

            I know there has been rumours that has been circulating with the blog changes and we've thought about changing the days to be quite honest but today's post, I am going to talk about one change that is coming to the blog and there is only one thing that is changing but before I do that, I wanna talk about the Saturday blogs as was discuss, after a long discussion with my Team, I have continued to think about this further and come to an conclusion that I am keeping Saturdays as an open day for a blog post. Same with Sunday in case New Years hits on the weekend like it did this year. 

             The other thing is, Mark who is part of my team since the start of November on and off and now full time on the team, he will be taking over the blog on Fridays and if there is an extension on the blogs then it would take place on the Saturday, but it really depends on a week to week basis to be quite honest. In the end it depends how we setup our week and I am not saying this by my perspective but Larry's and Mark's as well. There is no "I" in team, we work together to ensure I am successful in the end. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow, enjoy the rest of your day.

2023 Is The Year of Letting Go and Growth!

           This year is the year of me letting go. I already have forgiven 2 people and we aren't friends per say right now but me not being mad at em anymore is a start to maybe reconciling a friendship later on but I am going to take baby steps at this point and all I can really do right? I know I am not on the best of terms with other people but I am just going to let it go and move on to the big goals I have for the website.  

              I will re-iterate what I mean. I am continuing on with Entertainment Man Podcast, I wanna continue on with the growth of the podcast. I will get into goals for the podcast in 2023. Finishing up the collaboration podcast with all the season minus season 30 which isn't out till later in the year. Also breaking the Video Projects Team record amount of days which is 3,262 days on Oct 19th, 2023 being the day we tie that amount and Oct 20th, 2023 breaking it at 3,263 days. Getting there as today is Day # 2,971. Closing in on the days. Now the website has already seen growth as it is. I wanna try and break 500k is the big ultimate goal in the number which means half a million of you visited ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. Anyways that is today's post, I hope I fullfill my goals and dreams this year, same with you guys as well and as always I will talk to you tomorrow!

I'm Preparing For 2023!

             With 2023 getting closer and the New Year is this weekend, I am finalizing things for 2023. I am figuring out things for The CBOTW Show and I think I may just keep things simple and either do 1 show on there weekly or monthly. I want to simplify things and make things easier. I am over thinking on things and I should be on a more simpler side of things. Start out slowly then grow it from there on out.

               2023 will be a year of growth and 0 drama and 0 problems moving forward. This year has been horrendous running things and I am just ready for a stress & drama free year with no problems. 2023 will be another year of growth. Cause the last half of this year things have been on the up and up despite the non stop drama in the community. I am ready to continue growing this and with the addition of Discord this community is just getting better and better everyday. That is the post for today, will talk to you all tomorrow!

Moving Forward With The Facebook Fan Page....

             I know the Facebook fan page has gone dead and that is because my Management didn't have access to it and one of the reasons was prior to my former Management Team member, she ended up quitting for a second and final time and Mark took over and I currently have no way to give him the privileges to post as the page and post the blog and podcasts. So this means the Facebook fan page renders useless and stays quiet till hopefully around my birthday or the day after when I can actually post.

            When the time comes, first thing I will be doing will be giving Mark access to the Fan Page. I may be taking time away from the page a little bit longer and he will be updating you guys for a while till I feel ready to come back after all the drama, I am kind of taking time away so he will be in charge of it. He will have a lot of access to the page so in case I get thrown into Facebook jail and I will try and not have that happen again, I promise! Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

End of The Week Updates [02-11-2022]

               Another week has gone by and time for another end of the week update. Been an busy week with interviews on the weekend and Monday to editing and having em ready to go to post up this weekend and yesterday as well. Anyways here are the updates:

Website: As you know there has been issues with the blog links and it is the correct links are set on there and it is correct but there seems to be a bug in the system with the website where it changes the link which messes it up for you guys and it seems to do that when the link to the blog is longer. So now I need to take extra measures and check the links and make sure and be up in case it does this again in the nearby future. I also added emails for both Entertainment Man Podcast General Inquries and also The CBOTW Show General Inquries. Also Amy's email is there for The Other of The CBOTW Show: Survivor After Show.

The CBOTW Show: An announcement podcast is coming on Monday at 2 pm EST where Amy and I will be talking about what is coming up for the podcast and how we are planning to re-launch this podcast which will be at a slower pace to start things back off. I think the last time, we actually went a little too fast with rebuilding the TV and Reality TV Podcasts and we just gotta take it slow and let things progress the way they will. 

Community Manager: We have a Community Manager that will be helping answer emails as they have been going through the roof lately and hard to handle every inqury on my own so she has been hired on to help me with handling at least the ChrisBOnTheWeb inquiries side of things for the most part and it can be found on the contact page of chrisbontheweb.com.

               That is the update for this week, a lot has transpired and this community continues to grow on a regular basis just gotta work on rebuilding the Twitter followership which has kind of plummeted on me where interest in my content has gone down so now I have to try and get some new followers. I try to be as active but my busy schedule I try to fit it everything if I can. Anyways I will talk to you all on Monday, have a great weekend in the meantime.

Chris

2022 Will Be A Better Year!

                 After feeling like I have been talked into doing Reality TV podcasts again and it totally fell apart, the drama this year, I can officially say 2022 is going to be totally different. I am not going to put up with any drama or insults anymore.  2022 is all about me and the 2 podcasts that have done extremely well this year since the change over and I am not about to roll over and go back to that, uh, uh, no way! Also the fact I am now in a better place now and a lot happier and 2022 there will be no 3rd, 4th, 5th chances etc. I am putting my foot down on this as I want to keep the community, clean, positive enviroment for everyone.  Alexandra, Larry and myself continue to make this a positive community and we will not tolerate such behavior like insults to myself and my team.

                I haven't been the best boss in the last 2 years letting things get out of control and I am stepping in as of now. I am not letting this community down. I already let my previous community and team down before, I'm not letting it happen again. I am so close to 10 years I can feel it! I am getting closer and closer by everyday that goes by. Keeping my eye on the goals ahead and excited for the 10 year Anniversary coming up. This is something I never saw with The Video Projects Team, only reached the 8.5 years mark then I ended up walking away from that team but this time I want to see the 10 year mark and beyond that as well. I  have said this before and I'll say it again, I'm excited for 2022. That is my post for today, I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and I will talk to you guys on Monday!

I Need To Do Better With Problem Solving In This Community!

                     I know at times, I have hidden and not said anything on social media or moments I go entirely "radio silent" on most platforms, you know something is up. I tend to go quiet when I go into one of my moods or some drama went on, I do not take it on directly, I avoid the situation and not deal with it. I've noticed I have distanced myself more and more from this group and I should remain active but sometimes it is just hard for me to deal with so much going on. I need to stop distancing and problem solve. Also I find myself not listening to both sides of the story, I just overreact and drama ensues. So I have to start being more assertive and actually face the problem head on, rather then go ban happy and I have been going ban happy on the group especially. I counted at least 8 to 10 people have been banned but I have taken majority of the bans off minus 2 individuals. 

                 Trying to make it right especially in this community and starting now is a clean slate, I wanna start over as I have been too unfair with some of you and communication is key. I do not want to come over strict and that is how I feel I have been feeling like I have abused my power as Founder/Owner and losing too many followers and I gotta stop the bleeding to be honest. I mean I have to fix this community before it crumbles like The Video Projects Team once did which was one of the reasons that community crumbled which drama was  a factor as well in the last year of it's operation. That is the one thing I am scared of is when CBOTW hits 8.5 years it will all coming crumbling down once again and I do not want that to be a repeat but fair warning any issues gone forever. Consider this a fresh start as I banned so many people on the group and now only 2 are currently under a ban. This is a fresh start for all of us and this year has been hard for all of us and so many changes with podcasts and hopefully moving forward things will be better. That is my post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [04-06-2021]

              Another week has gone by and I hope you guys had a fantastic Easter! I know us the CBOTW Staff & Podcast Team did. We needed that well deserved 2 days off. We now back and here are the updates:

Website: As of 9 am EST the chatroom lounge re-opens to the public and it is business as usual once again. We have change the chatroom to Chat up on the menu bar. Also have added Interviews to our now named Podcasts & Interviews drop down and Interviews are now in the middle of that busy but exciting drop down. Some tabs are not currently active but hopefully will be updated soon. Finally updated the Archives and added Everything About Reality TV to the list on the Archives. 

The CBOTW Show: Now this is the biggest of updates is The CBOTW Show. As Chris stated on Twitter, views have not been good and bad with some of the podcasts more then Post Eviction chat has been the better of the views compare to the Recaps of the actual week then  the Post Eviction shows they do but Chris said and I agree with this: It has nothing to do with what show maybe it's the way it is produced. Anyways that is besides the point, the point I want to make is both Chris and Jasmine will be meeting today to discuss the change and Chris has already started working on the format and note pages etc. He really is taking this seriously and wanting to make some changes to the podcast. Both Chris & Jasmine have decided to not to merge The CBOTW Show with Everything About Reality TV Podcast as it is just too much work to re do the intros to all the podcasts and just easier and better to have a clean slate and start with this. 

Personal Update on Chris: As you already know, Chris is still banned from Facebook till Thursday morning which is 2 days to go to be exact as he's mentioned it but the point is he has been on Sabbatical/On Leave for nearly a month now and has not returned and he did announce he will be back on Monday, April 12th. However he feels like he is not ready yet. I give him credit he admits to not being ready but he has to be ready to return and it's been long enough. However he has decided to go through with returning on Monday and we're excited to have him fully back running CBOTW after 1 month off from the day to day operations. 

                 Those are the updates for the week and a lot of stuff going on with the website and Podcasts and shows and we are always trying to improve things on a regular basis. So with that have a great week, Chris will be back blogging tomorrow with gaming updates and some really cool posts he wants to do. I will talk to you all next week!

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [03-08-2021]

               Another week has come and went and this means it is time for another weekly update for you all. I haven't been merely impressed in some of the behavior seen here on the website and I will explain:

Website: With the chatroom here on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com I am not impressed. The amount of disrespect that has been given towards myself, Chris and the team in general and I know this is one of the # 1 reasons why he has stated he's considered not being as involved with the chatroom community and his stress has become very very high. I had to ban 6 trolls over the weekend and starting to question the chatroom existing. Now we have it on where you have to login at this point and we haven't changed it back since and are leaving the chat where you have to login to chat with everyone and this might be the best thing moving forward for all of us. This has to stop before we end up shutting the chatroom down or suspending operations of having the chat open to the public. This inappropriate behavior isn't acceptable and we have to do better as a community. Chris wants a clean, positive and happy community. There is no ETA when we will allow guests again and I am in constant contact with Chris about this and when we feel ready we will be sure to let you guys know but for right now guest chat is suspended.  

The CBOTW Show: As you know Chris has become backlogged with podcasts right now as we just posted up Thursdays eviction on Sunday morning before Entertainment Man Podcast went up. Now do not forget we have another podcast to go up and the reason behind that is because he had some things going on Saturday that needed his attention this is why we are backlogged or he is backlogged and he's jeopardized his sleep to just get this content out to you guys. Chris promised to get back on a schedule this week for the podcast in the way of scheduling to record and no more tech issues whatsoever.

                   This is all I have to really say for this week, not much for updates, honestly as we are readjusting to 3 - 4 podcasts and we will get better as the weeks go on as we have so much amazing stuff going on right now. We gotta continue the positive love and support for this community. I will see you guys next week, have a wonderful week in the meantime.

Talking About Chatroom Rules Ban Lengths....

                We have gone a little ban happy recent with the trolls and we needed to remove em. However we had no real guidelines and both Chris and I came up with the chat rules and we are going to be adding times to the bans and here they are:

Rules:

1. No spamming the chatroom.  (6 hour ban)

2. No being disrespectful to Staff or Any Other User In the Chatroom. (12 hour ban, if use of offensive terms will be permanent ban from chat and not able to return)

3. No asking for Moderator, we have enough Staff to keep an eye on things. (Chat message removed & warning. 1 hour ban if continues)

4. No posting inappropriate links is allowed. (24 hour ban, if continues, Perma Ban as this will not be allowed whatsoever)

                Rules are not hard to find and there is only 4 golden rules to follow and so easy to follow. We only perma ban from here on out on severe infractions of the rules. We have the most conservative rules out of any other chatroom. Right now we are not making mods till the chatroom is active but the bans are very reasonable times. Please follow our rules it is not that hard. You guys wonder why we have removed our chat off the website so much is because of the chat problems. Chris also mentioned if the trolls get too much for us then what we can do is not allow guest chat and we will implement that you sign up with http://www.chatango.com/ and we will not be allowing guests in our Community Lounge from here on out. We have a lot of tools with this chat we have on the site and one of em we even do not allow VPNS cause it would be easy for trolls to get back into the chatroom so that has already been implemented! That is everything I have to say about the rules in our chatroom please follow em so we can keep guest chat open and I will speak to you guys Monday, have a wonderful weekend!

Statement About The Community Lounge's Return!

                With the RETURN of the Community Lounge here on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com I wanted to make an statement about the chatroom returning and will answer questions. Now there has been so many issues lately whether it was a chatroom here on the website or Discord server there has been either drama or just trolls being demanding and disrespectful towards the team in general. LET ME SAY THIS: It will not be tolerated. Now to a couple of the questions you guys may have regarding the chatroom:

1) When are staff around- That is hard to know as we're very busy team but we are around when we are around and typically between 9 am and 7 or 8 pm EST but there will be nights where we may end up being up late so it varies when we are in the chat but sometimes we leave our names just say hi in the room and we do not answer within a few minutes we are either busy or asleep. We work odd hours especially with Big Brother Canada 9 now underway, Chris is online a bit longer now with the Live Feeds up he will be up listening to them so between now and Mid May our hours are now going to be 12 pm and 9 pm at the most.

2) Rules- There are rules below the chatroom and that always seems to be an issue to follow them and we hate banning but we have no choice. We are going to be making a Ban times list that way you guys know how long you are banned and we will be taking notes who is banned and win along with username and two of us know who is who with the bans and that is myself and Chris. 

3) Chat Being Weird- We have added a button next to the chat on the website that looks like this to the left of this text. It is hyperlinked and all you gotta do is click the logo and it will take you to http://chrisbontheweb.chatango.com which is more capable to chatting within the community. We made it easier for mobile users but if you are on Tablet or IPad then it will be a ton easier for website use. This was an idea between both myself and the Founder & Owner of ChrisBOnTheWeb & ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. This took weeks of planning and Late January/Early February we started to plan and work on this feature and it took us weeks to slowly plan and execute this.

           So tomorrow, Chris was originally going to post but he has given permission to do two days in a row. Tomorrow I will be talking about the rules and how long we are going to ban on the chat so you know. We do not wanna make it permanent unless it is a very severe rule broken. I will then be back Monday then you will be hearing from Chris Tuesday. Have a great rest of your day and I will talk to you guys tomorrow.

ChrisBOnTheWeb.com Is Getting A Chat Again!

                  The ChrisBOnTheWeb Team is always looking for new features and ideas and we have had our share of failures with a dead chat on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com, the Discord Drama, Discord not working very well now. Chris has consulted myself, Tiala, Billy and Jasmine on the website and we are going to be bringing back the Community Chat. Now we are not rushing on the Chatroom Community right away, I am working on designs and seeing what he likes and we are also working on making it mobile friendly as we have complaints about the mobile friendliness of the chat and we are listening to you guys and we wanna take our time to thinking of every point and technical aspect of the website Community Chat. We also wanna make some rules that will be followed as that has seem to be ignored and this time around they will have to be followed either way or you will be banned from chat. Consider this a fair warning in advance.     

            We will once again have guest chat but if the rule continue to be on broken when we clearly have rules to follow. If we have to require you guys to login we can do that under our discretion but we will see how things go with the chat returning. I believe the chatroom still exists but it isn't attached to our website but we have to look. Also we have to work on Staff Accounts and get them all Admin'd up on the chat. So that what we are planning and an announcement when the Community Tab goes back up but it will not be for quite some time, we just wanted to let you guys know that we are working on this project as people do not have a place to go hangout and chat between podcasts live and pre-recorded and when it is ready we will announce on our social medias that it is going live. I will be talking to you guys Friday as Chris already had something pre-written.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Weekly Updates [01-10-2021]

               Another week around CBOTW Studio has passed by and a lot has happened in the past week. Chris got himself an external hard drive to store things and not sure if the 1TB or the 4TB will hold the podcasts to be actually honest with you and that would be up to him.     Anyways we have now into a full week with being back and Chris is trying to work as much as he can despite his sleep schedule is pretty messed up which I will explain as I am giving him a week off from blogging so this way he can try and fix his sleep schedule so the entire week, you will be hearing from me. Into the updates for the week what we have been up to.

Website: Website, it's looking quite epic now with the new menu bar and the darn bar seems to work a lot better then what we had and with the menu bar or navigation bar had before we changed all of this. To be honest the last menu bar sucked it was really bad the way it was coded and was unresponsive compare to this one which is very responsive and works.

Discord Server: Server has been doing a ton better since the drama on there took place and we had to ban someone from the server. Moving forward we have added in more channels and adjusted the rules to the server. We've added on Links and Media (Images) channel, added an "rant corner" and "TV and Reality TV corner" to the server. We may have had our bot down for an hour or so the other morning but that is besides the point.

Entertainment Man Podcast: The Boss Man's podcast is back and up and running once again! So happy to have his personal podcast back on the air and cannot wait to see what he has planned this season and what is on tap. I know interview is coming up and that's with his Co-Host of Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast.

Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast: He is trying to get the season complete and sounding like he is now aiming towards the end of January and February this year as I said his sleep is extremely messed up and trying to fix it and why he's off from the blog all week long so he can try and get the sleep schedule back to normal and I should have an update by Thursday. Anyways he will be aiming to finish up the show by mid week this week.

               Not sure how the scheduling for the interview with Larry and Chris going to go on top of the collab but that is on the schedule to complete and finish this month. He's been trying to work and has failed and he's not been happy in the last week so I am taking over the blog and you guys will have to deal with me for the next while no real timeline on his return and if it is not until he's finished Collab stuff that's fine, myself and Billy have things under control. I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Matt, Site Admin

Change of Plans! Chat Is Gone Permanently and We've Got A Discord Server Now!

          Chris has allowed me to slip in this bonus blog post this morning before the normal post from him goes up. As you probably have noticed with the website that the Community Lounge has disappeared and it was a decision by the entire Management Team and Chris to remove it once and for all for several reasons why really and here are the reasons behind our decision:

1) Chat was inactive: I was the only one in there recently despite the views have been extremely well but just not activity minus the occasional time Chris is in the Lounge from time to time.

2) Trolls: We have had our share of trolls recently spamming the chatroom with VPN's after we banned VPN's and we frown upon the use of them as it makes it easy to troll the chat.

           So with the Discord Server, it already has become an active community on there and also the Management Team of myself, Chris and hopefully Billy and Tiala on there today. A week Monday we hope to get Larry on there under the Alum title as well. The link can be found under the Discord logo to the right hand side next to our our Social Media's or by going to http://discord.com/invite/tQAtafvUMw to join our wonderful community. This will prevent trolling because one ban and not just your account but your IP is banned since the server is based by IP and not just your username and there is no way to come back unless Management or Moderation (Moderators) unban you. I think this is the better decision to have a server and even Billy is getting people to join this community. I know a chat on the website brings in views but this also clears up room for what we have planned in February with the reconfiguration with the website. I wanna say we had concern we wouldn't be able to fit it in but now we can. Please feel free to sign up with Discord, it's free and join our Community. We will post up the link on Social Media so you can join and pin it to the top of our posts.

Anyways have a Happy New Year,

Matt, Site Admin

600 Views On The Community Lounge!

 

Hey! I decided to take over the blog today and give him a break from blogging. Trust me he's been working long hours with the site plans, Collaboration Podcast and also Entertainment Man Podcast so he's got 3 things going on right now and honestly he's stated he will be working on January 1st, 2021 hoping to take time off on the weekend on the Sunday. Anyways the reason why I am posting today is to bring amazing news with this website. The Community Lounge continues to grows with the website and within a month of this site having the Community Lounge back on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com we have hit 600 + views (602 Views to be exact.) Which is incredible to be honest. That was a screenshot of the page stats from the back end of the website. I know, the chat isn't active with ton of users but the fact people are popping on that exact page is amazing and I am always hiding out in chat and I always keep my name in there even when I sleep. 

 

                The One thing that needs to be done is get the chat moving is promoting the Community Lounge and getting people in there. Now we continue to commit to having it open to guest chat even with the past history of guest trolls but that seems to be fine. We have had some issues even with the VPN not allowed on the website that seems to be a problem as we had a bunch of trolls and we did a lookup as both of us can see who is who on the website. It says it's a VPN or Proxy and yet we banned that so the trolling would be limited. We may have to reach out to Chatango about that but the trolling has limited down. I wanna thank you all for the continued support on behalf of myself, Larry, Billy and Chris and it's because of you guys you make ChrisBOnTheWeb a success on a daily basis.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Community Lounge Opens Monday!

      I know surprise! I am making a mid week appearence and Chris already knows about it and says it's fine and gives him the day to work on the collab podcast with the editing this gives him the day free as it takes him sometimes 45 minutes to complete a post in the day when he could be editing the podcast. Anyways we are proud to say, we are launching the chat as of today. That's right, Chris messaged me this morning letting me know that as of 9 am EST Monday the Community Lounge will be open for business! As you know we have had our share of issues this week including last weekend and we were all set for launching the chat 2 days ago but we have had to put it on hold temporarily but he has made it OFFICIAL today that we will be going ahead with the launch of the Community Lounge as of Monday. So you will not be seeing this in an update. Just hope there will be no more issues around the website that will prevent us from launching the Community Lounge. What will be in thsi Lounge? You will see a chatroom where you guys will be able to talk and interact with Chris and his Management Team which I am a part of. This chatroom has been set and ready to go for days and sits there empty with just Chris and I doing the final touches to the chat especially. 

               You are wondering why Monday @ 9 am EST well that was Chris's decision to open it early in the day so everyone gets a chance to pop in to the page and it is bright and early in the day. You never know, Chris may be lurking in chat and if you guys pop in and yes guest chat will be open so everyone can participate. There are a few rules and they are: 1. No spamming; 2. NO posting links. Please ask a member of Staff or the Moderator Team; 3. NO being disrespectful of any kind; 4. NO asking for Mod, must earn the trust of Chris and the members of the Management Team Staff; 5. NO religion or politics talk is allowed. We do not want to have an argument happen in chat. Those are 5 simple rules to follow. Now one last thing Chris detailed to me this morning if the guest chat gets too abused with trolls, we will shutdown guest chat where you have to login. However, we are looking forward to this Community Lounge opening on Monday and be sure to be on the lookout for an official launch post on Social Media!

I'm Back and Changing My Routine A Bit!

            Well I'm back to running the day to day operations and me being the Owner once again. Now I know what you guys will say you need to take time off for myself and honestly things are going to change moving forward. On weekends, I am doing nothing regards to ChrisBOnTheWeb on weekends and why Jim our Community Manager will be keeping an eye on things answer social media questions and email inquires over the weekends so this way I can relax a bit more and take weekends off. Only time I'd work on a Sunday is if I recorded Power Rangers Podcast episodes and he is here in the studio but recently with CoVid-19 we're currently recording via Skype during the week at this time. However that is besides the point really. Also if it really comes down workload I will work the occasional weekends but I am not going to push the envelope as that is one of the reasons why I took 2 weeks away from the day to day operations of the website and group. Not only that but the trolls started to get to me and disrespect towards my staff and people being rude in general. 

            Either way I am very happy to be back to the day to day operations and being able to talk to you guys without not saying much minus a couple of posts on social media post and the one blog post that I did recently. That kind of helped me make that decision to return to ChrisBOnTheWeb and I am glad I did. I am really happy that I made that decision to come back sooner then I thought. I honestly thought it would of been a month before I returned to CBOTW and I really have been struggling to decide to come back but now is most definitely the time to make the return to ChrisBOnTheWeb. Now is the time for me to make the move to continue to grow this thing and I honestly it has even with me away from the day to day operations handed to Jim things progressed well under his leadership. However I am back and that is what matters. I am not going to push myself too much in the first. I do not wanna have a relapse of being stress and already started to stress myself out entirely but I am taking my time one thing at a time and my main focus this week is to get that darn Wild Force that is not even remotely near finished. I may have to work one or two weekends to get these notes as I plan on recording the following weekend after our Canadian Thanksgiving but we'll see how I do this week.

Let's Try This Chat Thing Yet Again! SMH!

           This was all Chris's idea in the way of chat of returning to the website and I had a couple of ideas which I will not get into as we're in the early stages of the chat's return and we do not want to rush it. However it is back up and running and yes guest chat is an option for right now but if the spam and disrespect returns then we will be locking down the chat once again and we are not afraid to do that whatsoever.  There is no holding back and we wanna grow the website and build this community. This is one of the reasons we brought it back was to start growing the community and the website. Now the views are up this is a great time to expand on the website so we made a few tweaks to the menu bar and the About is under it's own drop down menu to make way for the chatroom which was released right away.

           The chatroom can be found on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com/p/community.html and staff is around typically during the daytime but sometimes we will hide out in the chatroom from time to time but depends if we are awake we may answer but keep checking back in our community chat. We hope one of these days if we can get the chat really busy that we can start doing Community Nights on our chatroom but that is part of Phase 3 of the plan as we are only in Phase 1 which is growing the community. We also will be looking for Moderators but in due time. The Only Moderator we have right now is LarryR82 as he is a former staff member of The Video Projects Team and ChrisBOnTheWeb and he has Moderator status on our chatroom and is around when he can be on. Let's regrow this community and grow this website even further!
