Bakit bumalik ang Peyups?

Kasi marami kaming time! :smiley:

Seriously, palagi naman namin siyang naiisip ibalik, pero di lang talaga namin maupuan ni @karldeleon together with @markku.

Let’s go back to 2017 (sorry, ito na lang nahalukay ko sa usapan namin). Kita nyo naman, busy si @markku haha :peace:

Started working on a vanilla forum based Peyups early Jan 2019 and had the oldies beta-test it. Discovered a lot of bugs and because it was malware prone, we took it down after a month rin. peyups 2019-01

On June 2019, @karldeleon tried exploring Discourse, as recommended by @markku. Busy ako niyan so… peyups 2019-06

September 2019 ko lang nabisita yung Discourse test site hehe

Thanks for bringing back Peyups. Can we still access the archived version of the old one though?

Akala ko it was triggered by politics. CHAR. :rotfl:

Awesome! Pano pala sustainability plan dito? I mean servers aren’t free. Discourse also runs on Ruby so it’s not a simple PHP web host. Noticed ads on some topics, will that be the main funding source going forward? Or will we have like monthly fundraising activities? :laughing:

Thank you!

Nakakamiss yung no-post count view para mas ma-engage yung mga tao na magpost ng may katuturan rather than some random posts just to boost the status. Medyo sad nung nawala noon, I wanted to help, if there’s a way to import the previous one but I could imagine how big of a database it is! Pero since nagstart from scratch na rin, I guess better to have a clean slate.

Almost 3 months na lagi sa bahay. Of course, miss ko na Peyups. Integral part of college life yan eh.

Dami ring friends for life I’ve met through Peypus!

Mabuhay Peyups!

Baka ayaw na ring balikan ng iba yung mga posts nila, you know, youth. :rotflmao:

Babalik rin yung mga engaging discussions, nasa kamustahan stage pa tayo ngayon. (Saka wala pa si ano saka si ano at si ano… :hihi:)

Not at this time.

Baka pwedeng may Peyups group na mag-sponsor per month… tipong yung Peyups Oldies muna this May, yung Maroon Maniacs sa June ganyan :laugh: Or ibalik na lang kaya namin yung Peyups Goodie bag? :hahaha:

Yaheyyy salamat sa inyo! :cheers:

Baka puwedeng parang Patreon. May mga tiers. I think kaya naman with our numbers. Or subscription. Heh. Though baka yung challenge pala ay pano siya hindi magdevolve into a caste system of paid at free users :laughing: I can only speak for myself but am willing to chip in for the hosting costs if it comes to it :slight_smile:

May timeline pala nung paulit-ulit na test versions :joy:

May bbPress versions pa tayo noon, merong stand-alone tapos meron din nung plugin based.

Sa sobrang dami nating na-try na forum software pwede na tayo maging “self-proclaimed experts” aka influencers in millenial-speak, hehehe.

So kelan na ang EB natin? :wave:
