Today TRMK would like to announce the official re-opening of the TRMK Community Forums. A few of the old features are still missing, but will be returning over the next month. We apologize for the delay in reopening them, but they are now back up and ready for everyone to start using.

We haven't finalized all the forum categories yet, so if you have specific forum topic(s) that you'd like to see, we're open to suggestions. Simply use the new comments link to reply to this news article and, if we like your ideas, we just might implement them.

Also we'd like to announce a new community feature, Easy News Submissions. Just post a message to the News Submissions topic in the forums and one of TRMK's News Editors will evaluate the item for it's validity. If it's newsworthy, they will post the news item with a credit to you. We soon MIGHT add a rewards system for this in the form of a counter for valid news stories submitted.

It feels good to be back... hopefully for much longer than last time. :D

It has been awhile, ive been waiting for this day for over a year now...

Dun Dun Dun......"remember me"?

Wow, TRMK continues to come up with innovative ideas for their website. No doubt all the other gaming websites out there will follow your lead.

Get your facts right please. We were never "down", the boards were down but not the site. I do agree that we didn't update the news quite so often. But seeing that there was nothing but constant barrage of media previews of the game up until this point, not too many big news worthy events. We only post the big events. We have a limited staff right now who have jobs, sometimes two jobs. This site doesn't pay us anything, we are and always have been non-for profit. We also don't get any kickbacks from the media outlets like some sites out in the industry do. But now that the game is coming out we've been gearing up for kicking the site back into action to cover the game once again.

Damn, talk about nostalgia.

It's good to be back. Might I suggest you guys also get an IRC chat going as well? Perhaps getting backin EFnet #mk3? :P

Researching a chat system as well too... probably not IRC but something we can control a bit easier than a large network like EFNet, etc.

I still can't believe it's back... and I will say this... it has brang back many memories... so i'm glad it's back. :D

RR back!

Damn its good to be back ! Ive missed this place lol.

Nostalgia just isn't what it used to be...(sigh).

TRMK has always been up, just the forums were shut down for about a year and a half. Yeah, I can't wait to see a chat room open up. Perhaps they can use a little more secure of a server than EFnet if they DO use IRC.

Cool! Glad to see 'em back.

Unfortunately I was just a lurker from the 1996-1999 time period. I only went in #mk3 a few times and posted on alt.games.mk a few as well. TRMK is the reason why I am such an MK nut today. I remember when MK4 came out and there would be new moves adn fatalities discovered adn posted as news each day. That was extremely awesome. These days, a strategy guide is released the same day as the game. All the 'secrets' are out .

Nice to the see the forums are back up, good to be back.

Hey iceghost. [/quote]hey,he's actually using punctuation . I'm quite glad the forums are finally back up after all this time..to be honest I never thought I'd ever see it back up.but it's been resurrected.and just in time for what seems like it could be the best MK game yet :D .

Damn, it is good to see some familiar faces again. Thanks for briging back the forums. Best of luck.

I doubt most of you remember me but anyways, I'm back.... ....No, not in black, ****ers. Hey now....only nice words plz. I don't want to have to bring back the word censors. - Jeff

If this is the official "I'm back" thread, then I guess I'll chime in too. I am also back, though I probably didn't leave a huge impression the last time I was here, so I doubt anyone remembers me.

If I can get Patrick to do a name change, that would be great, seeing as I registered twice, and used accounts that didn't work. Pat, I'll PM you in a while. But yes, StonedSour is back! :D

Though, you've seen most of us at other boards. Most of us seemed to have migrated to the same boards this past year.

...

Yeah i'm back too. New username though. $44 to anybody who cares enough to guess who I once was. Nice to see some of the people around that I haven't seen since I stopped caring about this place. All in all, it's good to be back though.

If i knew you, i'd give you something special for trying though kick racists asses cause it's fun, k even retarded junkies are cooler k ...yeah.

It used to be number 2 until we let this site kinda waste away for 9 months. We'll bring it back up again to that spot. Of course, it could only happen with the help you guys here. :P

Yeah i remember. Trust me it will get there. Maybe one day even number 1. In the past week it's jumped up quite a bit.

Ahhh! Where did my edit button go? Don't mean to be a pain jeff, but i was wondering if TRMK is going to get a new look for MKD?

That would be a swelll idea... i see www.mortalkombatonline.com is possibly getting a new look. I think the edit has been removed for the staff members only.
