Title: new Forum?
Post by: Lucas on July 08, 2008, 05:35:02 PM: is this forum new?
when was it created?

I'm asking that because, today, July 8 2008, i just registered and found less than half a dozen topics :-\

As for when it was created, I wouldn't know.

When I logged in on the forum earlier today I was pleasantly surprised myself.

I thinks it's because someone posted the link to this site on www.FunMotion.com , It's a site about physics-based-softwares, mostly games :)

So far it's been responsible for about 15% of my total visitors. Fun motion, while in the top 11, only about 1% (but still greatly appreciated).
