YAY, CHATTERBOX!!

*Calculated from random samples of the number of registered members listed as having been on in the past 24 hours.
**Calculated by using the equation j=r/m where j is the join rate, r is the total number of registered members and m is the number of months since the site was founded.
^iPatrol is property of Dameron, Sera, TSG and Lurk.

what is Ipatrol exactly. and can you join it?

iPatrol: a society set up by a guy named Dameron around 2007 used to evaluate online games and rate them based on factors such as member numbers, activity, login and join rates, and other similar things. They also had a small forums category(small forums have under 200,000 posts and 250 members). After some tragic incidents in 2009 the group disbanded for a short time, scrambling to collect their scattered data after the logbook of all data got lost. Most data still missing. Had a total of... 19 members? at one point, all teenagers or mostly between 12 and 19 with two exceptions. Most knew each other face-to-face.

Faced with near-death again when new log records were deleted in the Forumotion crash, December 23rd, 2010. This was the first attempt to put the data online. All users/stats/posts lost in this crash except for the Dameron's account.

Current status is unknown but they are currently not as active again.

They had reportedly moved to LOF forums but when LOF suddenly died and iPatrol had yet to post on their boards, this was forgotten.

Talk of a possible move to Faerie Realm's forumer base has been discussed but has not yet been confirmed.

Any people interested in iPatrol can PM me, as Sera is third in command but guess who is second? ^.^ I have known Dameron (aka Dammit) for 12 years.

Update:

Sera (my bff) has just confirmed that iPatrol WILL be relocating to Faerie Realm.

Anyone looking for them should therefore PM Fripp, as I do not know the URL for that. She does.
