The New Forums.

I'm member #50! Yeah!

I think that people's stats will be modified to as they were on the old forums. I'm not completely sure.

Really?
Also, Smilies aren't available yet, right? Or maybe I just can't locate them...

[runningninja]

Smilies aren't available. And there needs to be a forum akin to "This Forum".

[Snuggletummy]

About the skins, I want to use the Hello Kitty skin, as, it was really interesting reading about a ninja related game while all the topic sparkled with glitter.

[Evil_Sire]

i want old skin!

it's nicer than this nasty black

[runningninja]

I noticed I can delete my posts if I want to. Will that be cleared up? And the numa option is neat :D
Sire, go to the user control panel, then board preferences. There, you can change the skin. I'm currently using green vision.

The new subforums are combinations of old subforums. "This Forum" falls under Discussion.

[Dead_N]

Maybe it's just me, but the signature images look ugly on this dark black skin. I hope the final skin isn't black, too.

[Chase]

Also you're not restricted to using the Black and Purple one. Go look under Board Preference in your CP.

[Dead_N]

Oh, I didn't realize that. I'm using the prosilver right now, unfortunately it took me about 30 seconds before I could find the reply button here. Also, the font colour of the usernames blends in with the skin, making it hard to see them, hah.

[otters]

I'm lovin' the new forums. And certain new staff positions. Woo! All this change is very exciting, and I think that once the transition is complete this will be a marked improvement.

That reminds me, the thread on the original forums said that the initial round of hiring would occur on October 1st.

Hm...

Think of this as Christmas coming early. :D

Yeah, for other people. /copious tears

Also, what is this "Lucky" rank?

Seconded.
I'm member 50. Perhaps...

[Dead_N]

Hmmm, the lucky rank. I think now its:
0-4 posts = Newbie
5-? posts = Lucky

Something like that :/

[乳头的早餐谷物]

Lucky seven, you mean.

[runningninja]

heh heh. You guys have a bunch of new custom titles? If so, the old custom titles thread will become inrelvant...
EDIT: I noticed that I can only delete my post if it is the most recent one.

[otters]

With the Hermes skin, why does the banner say "Support Forum"?

[Dead_N]

No idea.
Also, the fast reply is GONE! :(

[otters]

Oh no, it requires us to think through our posts.


The horror...

[runningninja]

It'll be reimplemented soon.

The new forums are awesome! Good time to switch too, in the autumn, as it's the time for change. The black theme is awesome. I love the font color feature on the side too. Set of features. I predict huge successes on your part, admins.
One question, is the sig size limit still the same?

[Donfuy]

I must say I'm not impressed with this new forum looks,
But it is fun to make part of this "new beginning". =P

[GamingWolf]

I'm member #50! Yeah!

Aye, relax barnaclehead. I be number #7 (Well when I checked I was)

Incidentally if we ever form a sports team we definitely need to employ our member numbers on our backs.

[Ad]

Right topic this time, hopefully! :D

Few more things:

• Any quick reply plans?
  Will the IRC link be added to the main page?
  What does
  • do? I can't get any function from it...
    Will we get to see an implementation of LV's User Page recent maps test thing?
    Any way to turn off the page after post submission?
  Anyhow, the changes are looking ace, but I can't cope with the very dark skin, so I've changed it to the pretty grassy one.

[Jiggerjaw]

It's going to take an extremely long time to get used to it.

I completely and whole-heartedly disagree.

I hope the old forums dont become disused though.

Haha, ha.

Also, I love the "you may wish to review your post" function, although I could forsee it becoming glitchy and annoying in high-traffic threads.

Agreed. That feature is awesome.

Please do not complain...you can choose a skin in the "Board Options" panel of your control panel. There is something for everyone.

With the Hermes skin, why does the banner say "Support Forum"?

Dave got these new skin options from all around the internet. The styles were not made by him, nor by anyone in the community, so I am doubtful you'll get an answer to that question.

Also, the fast reply is GONE! :(

Not every forum has a fast reply option. To be honest, it just encourages laziness, so I don't see any reason for it on our forums.

I fancy myself quite a fan of the color palette as well. Also, I've noticed that clicking on a color just puts the hexadecimal code for that color up, so if you know anything about your codes, you can make any color imaginable. Much nicer than the old method.


One other thing I've noticed is that the new forums do not have .gifs for emoticons (at least none that I can find), which automatically replace things like ":)" or ":ph34r:." I would consider this an improvement. No more :wow: :wow: :wow:.

I actually like the new text only smilies. It takes away loading time.
