Hi, all!
I wanted to post to see about getting *<JO>* up and running again. I don't know about you all, but this clan was incredibly meaningful in my life as a teenager. Given, I was too immature most of the time to understand how significant the experience was, I realize now that my time in *<JO>* brought me many joyful memories.
There is actually a fairly healthy community on Steam that play Jedi Academy. While it may take time to get things going, I believe it would be worth it. I would be more than willing to spearhead this effort if you all would be interested in moving things forward.
P.S. Thank you for keeping this forum up and running. It is fascinating to see the comments I made when I was 15.
Cheers!

Feel welcome, it's quiet around here, but some ghosts seem to visit this place from time to time.

I will try to download sometime. I am in law school and incredibly busy but it would be awesome to play with some of you guys again.
On other note - WoW classic is about to be released. Anyone playing that?
-
What a nice thing to say Kenshin!
For the longest time, I have been thinking so hard how to get the clan going in a game again.
Unfortunately, I don't think Jedi Academy will sustain enough interest and numbers to keep things going.
I really was hoping that there would be a multiplayer option for Fallen Order, but doesn't appear to be so.
That being said, Jedi Academy is better than nothing!
Does anyone play SWTOR anymore?
I always thought that would be an option?
I like that there is interest. It would be nice to keep this community of awesome people around to be there for the younger generation so they may look back at it with such reverence!
Keep the ideas coming in my opinion!

It'd be nice to have a discord going for those of us who want to keep in contact, but don't check these boards that often.
Did someone mention we had one somewhere?
-
Alpha, I think someone mentioned maybe setting one up for your clan, but I never saw anything yet. You're already in the RO channel. I "think" that I put the invite code in the RO-JO section of the forums.
I'll just need to be told by people that join, that their from JO, so I can give them the JO permissions in the channel. I'm always logged into the channel, but Trophias is also an admin there, as well as one of our council members. Not sure how often he actually checks his messages or the channel though. lol

Long time no see, my friend. Where have you been hiding?
-
Ahh what's up Angel!
-
Been around from time to time! Life has gotten me in its grip! But still alive and well.
Hope you guys are having a blast!
Everytime I think about JO i visit the website, to remind me about the people that I spend a majority of my childhood with. Love you guys!

I have been perusing the forums lately due to extreme feelings of nostalgia and noticed that when Favian fixed our bot issue within the last year, Kenshin's account got deleted. Possibly because it was a duplicate or something, hopefully he finds his way back to the forums again!
I have been thinking myself it really would be nice to throw a discord or something together. If anyone is interested PM me and I'll starting handing out a link to one. I'd rather not make the invite public so we don't get any riff raff floating in, but we could always put it in a JO only board if it actually took off.
-
Sometimes it's like muscle memory where, I'm sat at the computer with nothing I need to do, and my brain instinctively hits 'J' on the URL bar. I then get a lil dopamine hit if I see the dark icon indicating a new post! I'm sure I'm not the only one that does this - clearly the way my brain was hardwired in my formative years.
Not sure if/when I'll ever kick the habit.
I'm down for that JO discord link - hit me up!

Hi Rando. RO does have a Discord channel that a few JO members are in, like Alpha, Foxen Mert and a couple others. I'd have to check and see if the invite link is posted in the thread I made long ago in the RO/JO only section.
If you're interested, and there's no link in that thread, message me, and I can send it to you.
-
Hey Darc, we've actually just started up one specific to JO that you are welcome to join. I've taken it upon myself to pester some old timers to get them to join haha.

Oh, did it? Didn't do that on purpose, though. Nasty bots!
I detest any kind of social media, so I won't jump on the Discord-train with you guys, but enjoy! :) I'll keep checking the forums from time to time then.

I wouldn't really consider discord social media in the classical sense, but to each his own I suppose. It's basically just a more robust version of xfire or steam that's focused on group chats (and activities) rather than direct messages. If it was actually active, it honestly wouldn't be far from how JKA was for me back in the day on dial-up which was essentially a glorified chat room, as the times I could actually play competitively were few and far between. I do miss the old text only days at times, jumping into voice can be a bit anxiety inducing for me, but I don't mind it with a group that I know.
That said, it seems like we know at least a few people that are definitely playing some cross platform games like Sea of Thieves and Diablo 4 coming up. I just thought of it as a free way to get people more easily interacting with each other again, and maybe even gaming. With the broken links, and so forth, I just really don't see the forums being anything more than archival at this point. Taking a note out of DarcWolf's posts, Discord seemed like something we could make our own in the modern landscape.
-
I do concur, that Discord isn't really "social media" It's more of a chat program, where you can use text or voice in it. I think it's much better than using TeamSpeak, since you don't have to "pay" money, although subscribing does unlock a few features, in order to have something set up for a clan/guild to use, and the text chat area is a lot friendlier.
One of the nice things about it is with the voice part of it, you can be in the voice channel in Discord, while playing a game, and not have to use the voice part of any game. It can be rather annoying ingame, to listen to people screaming into their mics, or speaking languages you don't understand.
-
It's basically Skype/MSN with better group chat that you can dip in/out of :)
-
It has been quite uplifting to see members slowly trickling into the *<JO>* Discord Server that Master Rando kindly set up.

How about we list games we are playing?
At least we can connect in some way?
Would be cool to play in a game we can role play :D
Hope you're well!

Hey All!
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and happy New Year! Discord has been pretty dead since Diablo 4 was a bit of a flop. I'm currently recovering from a disc replacement in my neck (spinal surgery) so hopefully I'll be on the upswing soon!

Rando, I hope your recovery is going well. I have a screwed up lower back, with a herniated disc, as well as arthritis there too. Unfortunately, they say surgery won't help with it, so I have to deal with pain.
-
Hello friends!!!
I?m sorry to hear about your physical issues friends. Let me know if I can help in any way.
Can we stick a banner at the top of the page (both in forum and an obvious link on the ?jediorderclan.com? page) with a link to the discord so if other nostalgia seekers can find it easily?
Lmk if you need help with hosting or anything else
Love to all
-
Damn! Y?all are super old. Falling apart, you are! Mmmhmm
Kidding. Hope everything is ok, Master Rando. Hit me up if you need anything.

I've had my screwed up back for longer than you've known me. lol

Dang sorry to hear that! Let me know if you need anything! Pann's got you! haha
What games is everyone playing? It would be fun to chill together!
I play Deep Rock Galactic off and on haha
HellDivers

I have D4, but it seems laggy for me, compared to my other games.
