Recent Development

I haven't posted much in this blog in recent time. But now due to many changes around JR I feel we must. Currently I have been focusing on the following topics for developing JR further: Simplicity. (JR currently has so many areas, how can we make the experince easy) What we do. (JR is a gaming website, but many gamers come on and don't understand what we are about) How we operate. (JR has become quiet, we need to increase our community by changing how we operate)

Development has continued once more on JR!

JR has had many design changes in it's 9 years... yeah I think 9 years of existence. Some good, some bad. My website development and designing, IT career basically started here. JR has taught me so much just by working on it and working and chatting to the community! Recently I have had a long pause of development at JR and a huge break this is due to a lot that has been happening with my personal life, I have recently moved out from home, so I am now renting my own place and paying al

Advertisements On JR

Hey guys, You may have seen a bit more advertising around JR Network. Well the reason why is that we need around 135 Euro per month to keep the servers that we run paid for. IF we don't earn anything to put back in to the servers then we will just die out. So due to this we are starting to advertise a bit more. If you don't like the advertisments around JR, You can buy VIP and you won't have to have advertisements on the website Hope you understand Regards, Jamie

I will also be adding a couple of handy and cool features today, so watch out for them I will also be looking in to a revamp of our JR Toolbar today Regards, Jamie
