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!

      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)
      I would like to know the same. I just installed a 500GB HDD and I think the firmware helped itself to 30GB. For what I have no idea

      LOL I happen to be in the hump myself... well not in the 30/30 hump but more like the 40/40 hump. I just do not post often and most often times would like to keep to myself. Not only that I usually don't post just to increase my post count.

      @legend15 - you were banned before for being a troll and running your mouth. We are aware that you signed back up using a proxy. I also saw your comments before they were deleted. You're just a jackass. Either participate or just STFU.

      His is not the finger on the ban button you need to worry about

      I asked you two times to stop with the insulting legend14/15. I was not about to ask a third time. Enjoy your vacation, and time to go create the best PS3 scene site you possibly can.

      we're not power-hungry. You just can't follow forum rules. Went ahead and took care of it.

      If you really have a 60 hour a week job you have better things to do than spamming/trolling a website. Stop wasting our time

      I have updated the rules, meaning the game is going to end sooner.

      In an attempt to make this contest more reasonable, and not look like a spam haven, I have lowered the requirements to win.

      Changes:
      -125th post wins
      -250th post wins
      -Users with 1000+ posts can not win

      Meh. I work 40 hours a week now and I can only squeeze in a small portion for gaming I guess.

      Anyways On topic, why the big fuss about a $10.00 gift-card just go by the rules or keep quiet.

      Sometimes I think why do things like this if the majority of users on this site just gunna shit on it. Really disrespectful

      Thankfully it's not the majority. There was a lot that went on that you didn't see. You can please some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time, and some you just can't do anything for.

      It's squashed anyway. Let's stay on topic guys. Any concerns over what happened feel free to PM me and we'll talk about it

      I was wondering the same? wasn't this just a general disscusion thread? I mean yeah keep it clean and all but I thought we were just supposed to chat with one another and have a jolly old time in this thread. is that not right?

      you guys are right and I didn't mean it to sound like that. I was just referring to an issue that happened earlier tonight with somebody with a personal grudge. All I meant was that issue was resolved
