    Good going guys. It's fast and easy on the sences. Course I know that other then the fact it took about 7 hours to get the database swiched over, but you PAID for this forum software.

    Can't wait until you get a new skin for everything

    I couldn't get the avatar image working.

    But it looks like nobody else could, either, with the exception of our Grand Administrator.

    Well, at least we have standard tags now. It'll make it easier to link to things. And perhaps thumbnails work now, as well.

    Yeah ... we'll probably be doing all sorts of things, tweaking and tuning and getting things up and running.

    I'm pretty sure avatars work. If not for you, what was the error message?

    His avatar was probably over the size limit, I have setup vb to auto resize images if they are over the limits.

    ouch kAi, caught me good there...

    Two Things:
    First: The logo at the very very top of the page. It links to the front of the forums, but its the damn vBulletin logo. How lame is that?

    Second (and much more importantly): The Search function.
    A couple minutes ago I ran a search for Ergo Proxy. Said it couldn't find any topic named that. Then I went and made a post where I wrote the words "Ergo Proxy", redid the search, and now that thread came up as the result from the search.

    The Ergo Proxy thread is still alive and well (and just bumped with episode 2 I might add), but the Search function STILL can't find it.

    Not only is this annoying, but I guarantee the newbies are going to be making shit tons of repeat threads until this issue gets resolved...

    Me changing my Search preferences and whatever I can do, but the fucking n00bs won't know how to do it, won't bother to do it, and, well, you can figure it out from there!

    Save us from the n00b deluge before it comes!

    kenren: fusetalk was the system that the old forums worked on. This one is vBulletin. Edit: NOW the Search function finds the Ergo Proxy thread. It seems that it is only able to find threads that have been bumped after the transition to vBulletin. All threads before that aren't found by the search...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Well, this is different. I hope there's less problems with slowness and downtime now. Defaults are always so ugly. I'm looking forward to the forums becoming prettier when you guys find a cool skin.

    Unhappy

    What happened to the video game area? And I thought fusetalk was pretty cool for the simple fact that the dark skin was sick.

    yeah, I think that vbulletin's search optimizes/indexes things, and probably can't do that efficiently with old threads. But I dunno. Just one of those migration annoyances, it seems.

    On the other hand, fusetalk's search rarely worked at all :-p.

    So, I guess the lesson is ... if you think a thread should be indexed, go find it and make an interesting post in it :-p.

    Eh, go into your personal options and set it to 'show all threads' for the default thread age cut-off. Then you can find just about every thread you ever search for.

    Forum look pretty good. Could use a dark colour style tho, I like it better then before.

    Anything new fascinates me. This will take a bit of time to get used to though.
    Anyway, great job!

    Wow. Just moments ago I deleted one message of mine, and it wasn't even the last message of the thread. It looks like we have pretty nice rights here. This indicates the admins here really trust and respect us members and our manners and adherence to the code of conduct.

    Personally I hope this won't be changed, even though it assumes responsible behavior and wits when posting.
