  1. Slow speeds right now? I'm working on it.

      Me and Chris had a bit of fun taking away my admin and Luke's staff status as a joke that we got "hacked". All in good fun.

  5. Spent the afternoon hitting the malls for after Christmas sales. Sooo many people. I think there were more people shopping after Christmas than before it.

      a headache, if that counts. Also some new clothes, another game, and junk food.

      I hope the stuff was worth for the headache

      Probably not, but it's all part of the 'fun' that comes with the holiday.

  6. Steve Jobs, dead today age 56. Not surprising with his health as it was, but what a shock to the industry this is going to be.

      Dennis Lillie passed away as well. RIP

      Sounds like you still have something stuck in your browser. Test with and alternate browser to confirm.

      I've temporarily enabled the default skin for staff. Take a look and let me know if it was a skin problem.

  8. Tags are now required when submitting a new thread. This is done in advance of our system updates, which will use the tags system to greater effect for finding similar threads.

  9. Thinking about removing the sidebar from everywhere but the main page. Does anyone use those recent topics links from viewing a thread?

    1. Toño

      Oh I see. So in this case if you will leave the sidebar only on the main page I wouldn't mind it. And I doubt I ever noticed this on topics before Premium as well.

    2. Toño

      Yes, I see 'recent topics' sidebar from the thread page as well. So as I said before I wouldn't mind to remove it from there but would like to keep them on the main page.

      As I can see, sidebar been removed by now. Lookin' good, more space as well :)

  10. Thoughts on the new homepage layout?

  11. Trying something new out with the ads. Dropped the sidebar on topics for a single ad in the post. Going to let it run for a week and see how it goes.

      You may consider closing the status update bar as most people would consider using the shoutbox now

      It does seem a bit redundant. I use status updates only infrequently to post small updates.

  12. Ugh upgrade turned on importing of status updates. What a mess...again. Should be fixed from here on though.

      Just fixed an error in skin permissions that was keeping some people from using the Create skin.

  13. Ugh, wonderful day for a network outage. Was out of my control unfortunately. Our hosts entire network was just down for about 20 minutes. Here I thought going with a huge host would be beneficial.

  14. Updated board Terms of Service. No change to policy, just missed some references to the new site name.

  15. We have no payment system. We have no model that charges for anything. I suggest you contact your CC company regarding these charges.

  16. We're running on a new server now so if you notice slow loading let me know so I can look into it.

  17. Wishing I had a swimming pool to be in right about now.

  18. Wrapping up testing of the new skin across major browsers tonight.
