So I was hoping that I’d have Aelon’s version 9 redesign done around the same time I would find out if Aelon was accepted into the 9rules Network or not. The play on words (or numbers, rather) was going to be something really special. So much for that.
For our readers who have no idea what the above network means, I’d urge you to follow the link. The 9rules Network is a loosely affiliated group of blogs about all sorts of topics - and every single one of them is serious quality. They have to be - as that’s what 9rules is all about. A few weeks ago I thought I’d submit Aelon, and not too long ago Paul Scrivens, their CEO, nodded his head and decided this site was up to par. So we’re in.
I’m not sure how much this means to you readers, or even to the others who write articles here on the site, but as the person who keeps the insides of Aelon well oiled and functioning right, this is a serious boon. I have felt for quite some time that the quality of content on this blog deserves more traffic, and I believe we’ll be getting that. The community of people in 9rules are also a very knowledgeable bunch, and I definately plan on tapping into that knowledge bank to see where we can take Aelon from here. Hell, maybe I’ll even be able to give some of my own tips to them. Who knows? Either way, it’s definately a bright-looking future.

Congratulations on joining 9rules! Love your site design, even if you are thinking of changing it, especially the metadata area underneath the posts!

Since I’m a big gamer, I’m glad to see that this site was added. I used to make Quake 3 engine multiplayer maps, so that will tell you how into gaming I was. Though I didn’t see the old design, I love your new one. Welcome to the 9network.

Hooray, new people with Gravatars even! When I first saw the announcement of this in the super secret batcave I was undecided. The first thing that popped into my mind was a “web ring” full of rather hastily constructed websites with black backgrounds and scatheing neon green text.
However, after following the link to 9rules and cruising their blogs and site I can say I am proud to write for a site that is part of the 9rules community. May the run ons run on. Glad to be here.

Yay for even more traffic. The 9rules network has some very nice blogs; good professional ‘web ring’ of sorts. They have a nice looking logo too.

Oh, there is no new design yet. Version 9 won’t be out probably until some time in December, though I was hoping to have it done quite a bit earlier. We’re still on Version 8 at the moment, and have been since January.

Ah, heck, I guess I’ll have to write another article…
Anyway, glad to see the site appreciated by the outside world.

Huzzah!
Its good to see that this place will get more traffic, and from some quality blogs as well by the looks of the ones I glanced at from the link.

Dude! The first rule of 9rules is you do not talk about 9rules.
You’re so out.
