Site Update: 05-07-2010
-Cbox, which wasn't that popular anyway, has been removed, in its place, I've installed 'Refer Your Friend', which should let you invite your friend to P.E.T. I am not sure if it works, but it is here for you to test it out.
-Arcade, the one we have more than 3,000 games is down, unfortunately. It seems as though the maker of the Arcade have not paid the subscription of the arcade host, so it's not working right now. Hopefully, he/she will re-pay it, so we can enjoy the games again.

Site Update: 08-15-2010 It's a huge one. ---- Thanx to our newest admin, zirtoc, we now have a fully functional shop where you can spend your site cash. You earn $10 site cash per every post you make, and when as you can rack up more and more cash, you can actually spend it for any item you are interested in at our shop located on 'Portal' on the upper left corner of the site. However, if you want to take full adventage of this new feature, you will have to enable all cookies on your system(Internet Option -> Privacy tab -> Advanced, then make sure it's set to accept cookies), and you need to click on the portal once in order to set your cookie and set up your money account so that you can enjoy our shop feature. You get $10 site cash automatically anyway, but in order for our shop to set you up as the virtual customer, you need to visit the shop first.(pretty obvious, isn't it?  ) You can also give and take some of your site cash to anyone you would like who has an account in the shop. So far, we only have zirtoc's account, but if anyone is interested, you can request it by letting us know what you want it to called, and provide us the pic to use. I will be making a thread for the account after this post, so use that thread. Enjoy. All credit and thanx goes to our new member and our newest admin zirtoc, who is my longtime partner of my other site.

Site Update: 08-17-2010
-Not a big update, to encourge and to praise our regular posters, a new, medal pic has been given to our top 3 posters, which exclude myself, since I am the site owner, which will be unfair to count. So from now, it will be updated and top 3 posters will be given Gold, Silver, and Bronze Pontiac logo as you will see at the left of their post(side profile). This is to say thank you for staying active and posting. Our current top 3 posters are:
Gold: Vette Dude (Our mod) Silver: Chieftain Bronze: mot76
Enjoy the new feature and if you want to get the medal, post, post, post.
Btw, our world flag and sidebar profile code isn't working now, but we will try to fix it soon.

Site Update: 08-18-2010 Not a big update. I've heard the site is really slow to load, and I myself have been experiencing the slowdown as well, so I have decided to remove some features that are either unused or doesn't work. I have removed the 'Refer your friend' code which didn't really work, and I have removed the 'Arcade Tournament Center' code. Our Arcade has been down for quite some time, and it is unclear if it will be back(the maker just isn't contactable.  ), so for now, we will do without it. Hopefully the Arcade will be back sometimes, but I don't think it looks to be anytime soon. Hopefully these removals will speed up the load time a bit. We will try to figure out what to do to really improve the speed of the site, but that will be it for now.

Site Update: 08-19-2010
Just a cleanup of some of the spam bot resterred members. The ones without any posts that was from the homepage luxemb.info or somewhere along that line as an homepage, has been banned and removed. Also, to strengthen the protection from the bots, the security has been upped. Now, any new members who joins, MUST be approved by the admin in order to be validated as a member. Any bot resterred members will be turned down and won't be granted the access. It may sound harsh but we've been getting a whole lot of empty, useless new members with the suspicious user id, though they didn't post anything, it was ALL from the same homepage group.(chances of that happening for unique, REAL member is slim). I have however, left alone the ones with at least 1 post, since none of them were of offensive matter, and some of them were pretty 'Educational' to be posted in our general topic section.
I hope you understand, for all you potential REAL new members who may register later.
