Title: Oooh, new forum!
Post by: Smurfette Principle on January 04, 2012, 02:21:21 am

Man, It's like a ghost town in here...

What happens to the old forums? Are they getting deleted, or are they just being abandoned?

You think that's weird? I'm looking at the newbie status next to it. I'M A GOD, DAMNIT. I'VE BEEN POSTING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. I HAVE 2,553 POSTS. I DEMAND RESPECT.

You think that's bad?  I've got 8,973 to get back to my old total.

Ironbite-now that's a lot less but god damn that's like 2 years worth of posts.

Y'know, I was gonna make an image using the old Marvel 2099 comics with the caption, "Tonight we're gonna party like it's 2099."  But I couldn't find any images of happy people from those comics.

Blasted grim and gritty nineties antiheroes.

Well... the slow climbup the forum ranks starts again...
And I really hope the whole forum gets transfered.
Is there a spell checker here?

I don't know about Chrome, but I know that Firefox has a built in spellcheck.

I had just shy of 3k posts. I actually consider that to be a lot for me, even over a 3 year period.

One more thing to add. The FSTDT main page still links to the old forums.

I'm just gonna miss having a title like one of the cool kids.

Does this mean we can post boobies again? I mean it's not like we were abstaining on ProBoards, but it'll be good to know. You know. Just to know. For the pure thrill of learning something new.

Post by: DarkfireTaimatsu on January 04, 2012, 03:33:45 am
Ugh.

While the fact that the Recent Posts section exists at all is nice, it's pretty much impossible to tell who's saying what. It's really non-intuitive. Needs pictures. And the fact that it only goes down 10 posts before requiring to turn the page is also terrible.

Someone make a skin for this that looks just like Proboards. That would be swell~

Just recently enabled this. Browsers should have it enabled, anyway. If not, not my issue.

Also, please, for the love of freaking god, post the complaints in the proper forumz.

Gonna have to see if I can keep my post count up higher than it was on the old forum. Having less than 2k was making me feel like a newbie, what with people having 4× or more what I did.

Post by: Smilodon on January 04, 2012, 03:28:36 pm
I like the new forum. It's less ugly than the old one.

The post count thing doesn't really bother me because I didn't post much in the old forum.

If you count the posts I lost when we moved to Proboards from the Yahweh-era boards, I've lost about 5,800 posts total.

What the fork is going on?  I've been Old Viking for about six years, and I'm a God, with some 2300 posts.  I've  been deprived of my avatar and signature.  And I've been assigned (for want of a better word at the moment) the User Name Old Norseman.  The new graphics seem exceptionally good to me, but goddamn it, I want my identity back.  What the forkety fork??

Old Viking, to change your avatar and signature go to Profile -> Forum Profile and upload your avatar and signature's URL address. As for the name, I think you can change that too.

Voilà! Your avatar and signature are restored. Lemme know if you want your old name back as well, as I can fix that too.
