Good morning/afternoon all!
Just wanted to share a quick update with everyone on the status of the Hyphen (mid-term oppo home that isn’t DriveTribe).
Late Friday after feedback from oppos that didn’t love DT (drivetribe) I started building this thing. It’s involved a lot of feedback, testing and help from many oppos along the way and because of that it’s in pretty good shape today. I’d like to specifically call out and thank RallyDarkStrike, NickHasAnExocet and Jb Boin - they have been involved from the beginning both in feedback and help.
Come take a look/join us if you like.
It only got published to Oppo Sunday afternoon but has grown quickly. It’s not a perfect platform but seems to be working for most folks. You won’t get the exposure you get from DT (I am on there too and have made a few posts) but it does feel a bit like home with lots of back and forth and active engagement.
Traffic-wise we’re putting down some decent numbers as of now with 201 members right now and traffic that looks like this.
The site isn’t perfect by any means and is still actively in development so the look will change every now and again as well as go down occasionally. I’ll try to give everyone notice and keep outages to after 9pm eastern but things will happen. I’d put it in early beta stage right now.
Posting rules right now are pretty much oppo’s don’t be a dick policy.
Oh if you’re having trouble registering, disable your ad blocker and it should let you through.
We are working on a new more blog-like front end in addition to the forum but that’s still a little ways off.
I’ll make a post later about the infrastructure and plans for expansion as they become a little more concrete, but we’re working on it.
See you on the other side Oppo!
