cityboyyy Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 i think we should have a protest to bring the old forum format back! whos with me should we start a poll "those who prefer old forum" vs "those who prefer new forum"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumonshoe Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 i'm sure the features that we all know and love will be implemented into the forums soon. C'mon, whatever happened to supporting progress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon, whatever happened to supporting progress?[/quote] Well said. Lets cool down and not jump to any conclusions. As you can see, many people wanted a change in forum layout, so the site admins answered. I can only imagine how dificult it is to make a forum that can please 100% of the people all of the time. Let's take this slowly and see how things turn out. It takes a bit of time to adjust to a new layout, so let's see how this works for a bit, and we can let the admins know of anything that can improve in the future. Once again, thanks for answering the calls for change admins. All your work is appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The features will be rougly about the same, and we can make some modded themes for phpBB3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvansLight Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 well i havent seen adrock on the whole time ive been a member. And i understand wanting to wait, but still i think ipb would be a better choice. Esepcially if u had done it before switching to phpbb2, since they would do free conversions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xpimpitox Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 [quote name='Yashman19']Looks like everyones avatar has been reset to nothing, and we don't have the option to change it yet. So since this is a big change, I'm guessing we just need to stay calm, be patient, and let the site admins work out any bugs (if there are some). Edit: Oh god, can we shrink that signiture just a bit? Kills people with slower connections.[/quote] sorry i was toyin with sigs so i chose another one. it was way too big and i dont know to resize it so i changed it.

I normally just use photoshop to resize my pics, just because its the only program I have that can do it, but I'm sure there are simpler/free tools on the net that can do it. When I first noticed it, I thought you had simply posted a picture you liked. Then I realized it was your sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anpu Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I like it but I know it's gonna take a lil getting used to. Oh yah, I want your avatar, danbopes. Macs FTW.

mushrat Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Just when I was getting used to the OLD NEW forum....*sigh* Ok, a few things as far as I can see. There should be a better way to search for users than having to go page by page though endless pages. A name search or atleast by letter would be very useful, especially for Mods. I've also noticed I can't modify someone's profile. As a Mod this ability can be rather important. As one of the few people who HASN'T been complaining about formats and programs and such, all I can ask is "Are we there yet???" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of the search I would need to make a mod for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
