Just wanted to say Hello, you guys are awesome. Keeping alive this old but gold community is really respectful. 

JV and the PR series were a big part of my childhood (I guess I'm not the only one   ) , and they played an important role in who I became.


My username is Sothal in PR2
and (was) 123456q in PR3

Have a nice day 

It's time for the weekly update!

Here's a rundown of the JV2 changes this week:
- Fixed an error where some people were encountering a message that said "Times don't match."
- The server for Click Upon Dots now restarts itself if it goes down for some reason.
- Ask a Mod threads now appear in the recent posts section of the Top Stats on the homepage.
- JV2 has some sweet new cards for when you share threads, games, announcements, and some other links from the site. Here's a preview of what a few look like on Discord!
- Fixed a small error with the MyProfile plugin where the comment pages weren't loading properly.

Additionally, there's some PR2 news! Jiggmin came on and merged a few pull requests, which in turn fixed some things. Those pulls were:
- #505: Fix automatic artifact prize awards | Fixes the artifact not giving prizes to the first finders.
- #506: Fix guest group | Makes guests appear as guests again (no member color).
- #507: Fix false positive | Fixes an error received on logout with the language "you're not using PR2 to log out."
- #514: Fix server crash on part overflow | This should never happen without some elite hax0r moves, but since it had the ability to crash the server, I figured it would be best to patch it before a way to exploit it was found.

We have one suggestion this week, and that's from @Lego-man945. He suggested that I add computer enemies and a timer for single player mode.

Do you want something changed on PR2, one of the revived games, and/or this site? Post your suggestions on the Bugs and Suggestions or PR2 Suggestions forums. Thank the suggestions you like so I can get a feel for what the community wants.

That's it! Sorry there isn't a video this week. I'll do my very best to get one out next week.

I already posted this in the Downtime thread but wasn't sure if it was seen. Copypaste below

@bls1999
I noticed a small bug with the menu it gave during downtime and didn't feel like making a new thread for it.

Upon clicking Games or Dev Log, this line disappears. It's only there if you click community. It also still highlights Community even though Games/Dev Log were clicked. 


If you click Community:


Edit: Also what the Christ happened to my title

Hello platformers

Today I am turning 19 years old. Time passes so fast. I remember when I started Platfrom Racing 2 on its release year. Anyway I am still waiting for Platform Racing Forever  

I will apply for Law University next year. Some of you might remember my lawyer dreams from old forums. Hard work incoming  

Thank you for being part of my life


The one and only,

Goodmorning everyone! 

Skilled Trades.... Did your high school, or middle school, or whichever education you’re in or have completed, provide you with information about skilled Trades or any hands on experience or opportunity to learn about them? 

I believe (at least in America) that skilled Trades are vital, primarily because I don’t feel that schools pressure or introduce them, and their importance to civilization. Had I known the education skilled Trades offer, and the enjoyment and fullfillment I receive from working with my hands, I would’ve pursuited a career in skilled trades immediately after high school. However I didn’t learn you could make every bit of 100,000 a year and earn a degree until I was 21. I’m just just curious, and hoping to potentially open this door of opportunity to someone else.

Have a wonderful day ladies and gents!

I had to close the forums for a bit while I did some work on the MyProfile plugin. Sorry for the downtime. Hopefully everything is working normally!

So, just recently Bls1999 just added a one player mode of CLICK UPON DOTS.
Personally I don't see much of a point for this... I mean... clicking dots alone???
So I was thinking of ways this could become more enticing!!!
You could possibly add in an auto clicking bot(s) that you could set to have the usual 3 difficulties.
And for another game mode: Time Trials!
^with this you could make personal bests and do competitions of a sort!!!


Also @bls1999 the servers are down again I believe...
But would really make clicking dots alone... 
A LOT MORE FUN!!!   
Any questions/comments are welcome!!!

Hello!
Hopefully someone remembers me... I used to play PR2 -really much- when I was younger. Someone maybe remember me by name Emppy, others maybe even remember me from account Devious Furious. I was also in original JV with something +800 posts(?), mostly spamming. :S

Let's tell a story about me

I started playing PR2 in 2008 first time. Account named .Emppu. (After making Emppy I have been keeping that account as secret because it low level content but here it is now) I was 9-10 years old at the time and mostly played with irl friends back then.
Traps weren't so popular in 2008-2010 than now. I made couple of short noobish trapworks inspirated by others and those got lots of plays in ”newest” because they were just started to rise. Can't remember 100% but [4P] TEAMWORK was one of first I made. (They werent even called traps back them xD Most called them just teamwork maps)

Years go and I make more traps and get lots of friends with my account. Started being part of teams and met ”Veka” in his TeamBobby. I think no one knows him anymore but we made account Devious Furious together to create and publish traps.
It was succees. 2011-2012 we made +20 trap levels and also ran multiple yolasites. TeamFurious etc. if someone remembers those. I remember Fury Traps had +50k plays, mostly because spamming it in newest all the time to have it in page 1-2 in evening hours.
He started to be inactive and we fight over right to own DF. I think I was little bit too selfish back then but I had made almost all DF's new maps alone and he had email so it was the end of that account. I deleted maps made by me and he changed password after all the years so I had nothing left.

2012, after over 4 years active playing I only had traps in .Emppu. (old and not good levels), Team Furious (Our team acc which I owned but can't remember password and email anymore :S) and Electro Ninja (made right after lost access to DF). I was thinking about quiting but then I made in 2012 Feb. account Emppy for comeback. Thanks for stong community in JV and in yolasites it got quite popular even with only 2-3 traplevels.
2012-2013 played lot. I mean really much. I made almost all traps which can be seen now and used to sims with multiple accounts. As start of 2013 I had rank 35, in summer I got it to 49. + PR2 friend Speedest helped folding cowboy hat.  I played daily 2-10 hours.

2013 summer I ended active playing. Great game which was already dieing, lots of friends went offline for good.

Then I have come back every now and then to update HOFs and look around do others players still recognize me and yeah they do. I can't believe that one of my trapworks have +70k plays and all combined my levels have been played over +200k times.   Thank you all who have supported me all these years and enjoyed my levels. 


I was thinking about making list to thank certain players and JV members but sorry, I can't remember all the names so it wouldn't be fun if I would miss someone really important. So I will thank you generally: Thank you all who ever played traps with me, supported me and where part of same teams back in 2010-2013 and thanks for JV's community ofcourse.
Respect for all who have been keeping this game alive all these yeas.

So I'm back... I'm university student nowadays and too much hurry in IRL to play platform racings so I won't be back playing as active as I played in 2012 xD, sorry. Hopefully I will be there every now and then. 

My name is wysdm. I also go by other aliases, but you can call me whatever you want to.

I used to play this game a lot during the 2012-2014 era. I originally signed up on PR2 under a very old account which I no longer have access to since I forgot the password. I quit playing around 2014 and have occasionally poked around to see how PR2 has been doing. I'm glad to see that this community is still around and hasn't actually died out. It would be nice to see the player count increase again and for this game to start getting noticed by other people a lot more.

I enjoy playing other games, mainly TF2 being one of them. I've played CSGO, CSS, and some minuscule single-player games as well. My computer is kind of low performance, so I'm pretty limited as to what I can play with an acceptable frame rate. I'm an ex-music producer as well. I stopped some time ago and haven't really felt like pursuing music any further. I also enjoy things such as doing photography, editing and making stuff in photoshop, watching movies, playing video games, meeting new people, and sleeping. 

Hopefully I'll meet some new and cool people in this community, although I may not go on here that much, I'm still very active on both discord and steam. I'm even on the PR2 discord group and do occasionally chat on there.

Feel free to ask me anything you want and nothing super personal.
