Post here if you found a problem with the new forum.
 
I know the old polls are messed up! (and moderators please delete the polls that are messed up that you see)
 
If you see a post icon that needs a RA2 look.....and/or want to change my SFTW and Firestorm incons and such.... feel free to make them and record their location ......hint, hint JoeBlo and other PS guru's
 
Avatars can now be 150 x 150
 
 
I need to go get some sleep now.....be back in 6 hours.

The Avatars aren't 150x150, they're tiny!

I personally like vBulletin better than this, probally because i haven't had much use with Simple Machines. Probally get used to it over time.

Everything seems fine on my end though.

When you click the orange forum button on the top left it logs you out.


What happened to Veterans, Advanced Users, and other titles? I miss them.

my guess is (with everything) takes time

ACAMS is probably sorting out all the major stuff first because I know custom titles are possible as people got them on RCG when we tested this forum

Edit: Pwn they are the thread icons like the old one had the N's envelopes, etc, dont worry Im making some possible new ones  ;D

ACAMS, could you install another, more simple and elegant theme? This one is kinda hard on my eyes. The default SMF theme wiould do just fine, but I see you overwrote it.

I am working on that, I will restore all soon.

Aside from the colors, another thing I notice is that we are no longer able to see who's online atm.

There's a "Unread Posts" button on the header for each main section of the forum, when on the main page (If you can understand). There might be something more precise, or maybe not.

Was gonna say pretty much what FC said up there. The Unread posts button is ok... but I like the New posts button's function a lot better on the old forum.

The forum software says I have three unread PM's, although all of them are actualyl old & read. It may be something with single quote escaping in the message title. Please fix this in the DB.

<<<< I got double "Technical Advisor" status

Is there a reason why some of the sigs sometimes end up on the right side?

I really like the new stats pages.
