PSX-SCENE Forum Discussion for Sony PlayStation/PsOne/PS2/PS3/PSP/PS VITA
  • Member Contest- Have You Seen This Post ?!? 250th Post Wins !!!

    UPDATE: The first prize has been given away. Please re-read the rules for updates to the contest. Recently, I have been hearing some very nice things about the site from various friends and acquaintances; but what keeps me coming back is the people. I wanted to give back to all of you, and I have devised a contest. This contest is perfect for all of the users who need more posts (30/30 rule), because that is the premise of this particular contest. Also, it is a great way to get the community talking. Everyone get ready to play!


    Contest Rules:

    1. You must be my friend on FaceBook (before I can give you the prize ).
    2. You can also be PSX Scene's friend if you want. Why not, right?
    3. You can talk about anything, as long as it is within the rules.
    4. You can post as many times as you you like throughout the contest. But...
    5. You can NOT double(back-to-back) post. Any and All double posts will be deleted. Even mod/admin posts

    Winning/Prizes:

    • First members to be the 250th reply/comment in this thread/article, will receive a $10 Amazon Gift Card via FaceBook (possibly PayPal).
    • To be more specific, it will be the 250th comment in the article; which is actually looked at in the forum thread as post #256, but while browsing the forums actually it would appear as 250


    Shout out to my buddy, the self proclaimed "LEDENDARY" Annelies, for giving me the idea to give something back to the scene and it's members who have given us so much. It is good to have a strong community; and a little competition

    Thanks everybody here, and everyone else making the PS scenes wonderful! Now start posting!

      Thanks for the nice comments. And thanks for moving the contest forward, even if you don't want the prize

      EDIT: I notice you have been here for more than a year, and still have less than 30 posts. Moving this contest a long could be just what you need to get you over that hump.

      Neat contest! Honestly I almost felt I needed to spam to get over the 30 post count. I'm not that much of a poster myself so it was difficult.

      I know how it is. I have no problem posting at this forum. But let's say I go to a different type of scene type all together, then in that case I might not get passed that 30 post count for awhile (which has happened to me at other sites).

      And remember, you guys can talk about *anything. So what do you have to say?

      LOL @ the "Have you seen this kid" still from T2. One of my all time favourites. As for the contest I'm coding too much to participate. Good luck to the others who play.

      This sure is an interesting contest. Maybe we should turn it into a TB flame discussion, I bet that would get to 500 posts in a heartbeat. But in all seriousness maybe this contest could have gone better attached to an acutal new article as a secret contest. Like if you are the 250th person through the door at a grocery mart you win a prize!

      Maybe I can use this contest to further my own personal agenda!

      Does anyone know where in the PS3 firmware updates it defines the percentage that the ps3 takes up for the GAMEOS?

      For instance I have a 750GB hard drive.

      750000000000/ 1024^3 = 698 GB actual space
      But upon installing/ formating for the ps3 the OS dedicated 12% to itself giving so just off fresh install we only have 620 Free of 698GB.

      There should be somewhere where we might be able to change this percentage dedication to a fixed 5 GB or so usage (when I had my 60GB hard drive i think it only used this much)

      Now that is what I am hoping for. I wonder how long it will be on the 248th comment for, a couple minutes, a couple hours. BTW, what types of games did you win?



      And everyone else... how it is going? Are you enjoying yourselves this night/everning/whatever?

      Why do we need 30 posts again? I've been here for well over a year (mostly lurking), and haven't felt restricted in anything. Edit: I'd assume the other "30" is days? Edit #2: NVM, just found it in the forum FAQ.

      Your last two posts before this one were in no way shape of form anywhere near constructive.

      ...why do you want to live in a world where u only hear the good?
      Is there something wrong with being optimistic? You are starting to confuse me. With constructive criticism, you are supposed to give examples or some sort of follow up.

      this site has been struggling for months, thats not an insult to the site. I love this site. thats not insulting anyone, thats just the truth.
      And this... this is constructive how? Again, perhaps you are new to constructive criticism, but again, the follow up is just not there.

      The majority of members don't want to see the interviews or contests, and the constant patting on the back is pretty sad when u guys haven't done anything (not an insult, my opinion)!!!!
      The insult is taken, because once again, all I see is flames, and not one drop of constructive thought. You keep saying constant patting on the back. Are you talking about the 2 or 3 times that has been done? Or are you talking about something else? It is hard to see where you are going with this.

      10 amazon card for hours and hours of work??? does that make sense to anyone?
      What work? The post can be as simple as *bump* and you win ten dollars. All the arguments, but nothing backed up by logic.

      put up a poll about contests and interviews and see if the silent unspoken majority doesn't let themselves be heard. you bog down the real news with these things. The #1 story on the site should still be rebug and ****psn as those are real things!!!

      You know what, that sounds like a great OPINION article, and I would love for you to take your time out and try to help this site that you love, and present it to everyone in the Members News Submission. You could be know as the savior of PSX-SCENE.

      Otherwise, I am going to continue to do what I do, while TRYING to give you some room. Remember last time, I gave you an inch and you took a mile.

      Now, we do have a Site Suggestion/Issue section here at PSX-SCENE. You can also post your complaints there, where they belong, and perhaps we can all work something out. Me, you, and the rest of the community.

      But if you keep telling us how to do what we love doing, I and going to have to show you the door, again
