XboxPolis, Mobilized.

The mobile site is redirected to you from any use of a mobile device, such as Windows Phone, Blackberry, iPhone, iPod touch, Palm, Droid- or whatever phone. When on a laptop or desktop, of course, our full site will load.
You may notice the similar look of the mobile site to the actual site. We dig...

Community Glitch: Twitter Application
We are posting this due to a bug we’ve found in the Twitter Application on the XboxPolis Community. The app lets a predetermined amount of tweets show up on your profile, along with the option to post updates from XboxPolis to your Twitter feed. But, recently, Twitter changed their authorization process, to where third-party applications (like our Twitter app) must use Twitter’s...

An Update : Episode One
Hello there, once again USKB, the faithful owner of XboxPolis.com. Since I suck at bringing Weekly Updates, even during summer, I figured a snazzy title and some annoyingly sweet puns could get me through. Agreed? Good. Like Tying A Knot, of death. So, we’ve been spamming our Twitter here lately, not with hopes to gain followers or to get blocked, but to make people come to us. The spamming...

Advertising Coming Soon To XboxPolis.com
Yes, the day of reckoning has come. I’ve been hit so hard by the crappy U.S. economy, that I’ve forced myself to start an advertising program on XboxPolis.com.
The ads you may see are an image ad, or maybe a flash ad. We’re going to be using AdBrite, mainly because we’re such a small site. We plan not to post those crappy “Get Skinny in 3 Weeks” ads- we want...

We're Smart. (Update on the Currently Down...
“We’re smart.” We Can Has Down*. (*UPDATED) The other day, XP went down due to my idiot-like ways. I recently was awarded the file back, but unfortunately, the file, although in the same place, did not connect with other files related to our site. In other words, it was still down. We are currently re-doing the site (it’s the NXPE ALL OVER AGAIN! Yay?), and will be done...
Yeah, We're Kinda Down.
“Woah, I know you weren’t talkin’ about me.” We Can Has Down*. Yesterday, I deleted the htaccess.txt file, which took down XboxPolis.com. Why? On Accident. I was attempting to delete another file, but I didn’t realize that I still had the htaccess.txt file selected. So, yeah. Poof. Anyway, I’m working with InMotion, and so far, they’re helping. Looks...
