Since every self-respecting site has a front page of some sort nowadays, I decided it was time to have one of our own, instead of having people delve immediately into our forums. This also gives the world a pretty good idea of what we're all about through simple browsing.
Anyway, I've tried out a lot of things, but most of them required web hosting of some sort. Not being a person willing to pay for servers (not yet, anyway), I focused on a blog-thing to serve as our front page, like they do on <a href='http://shoryuken.com' target='_blank'>SRK</a> for example.
<a href='http://www.wordpress.org' target='_blank'>WordPress</a> pretty much gives all that, without being too cluttered like some CMSs.
The URL of the forums is now <a href='http://ravenrepublic-forums.cjb.net' target='_blank'>http://ravenrepublic-forums.cjb.net</a>.
The front page will take its place on <a href='http://ravenrepublic.net' target='_blank'>http://ravenrepublic.net</a>.
Due to the move, some old links won't work anymore, but it's just a simple case of adding -forums to the old URLs. If you guys find any more broken links, please PM me.
That's it for now guys. Hope this new blog-thing works as well as I imagine it to be.
