Well when I first saw this I thought I was on the wrong website. What a big change. Personally I don't like all the ads on the right side but thats just my opinion. Someone said something about working out the bugs, Better get an exterminator. HEHEHE

our member titles and things are set at a default now..we will have to update them once we get the bugs fixed.
none of the posts are gone...if you go to the bottom of the section, youll see a dropdown that is probably set to "last day"..

Hi Tony!

The old threads are not gone. Everyone needs to edit the options for their account in the User Control Panel (User CP). The new forum software has an option that allows you to select how many threads per page you would like to see at a time. Also, you can select how far back you want threads from. This is an option that makes the site load quicker for people using slower internet connections, or people using mobile devices who get billed for the amount of data they download.

Everyone can access the old threads by clicking on "Archive" in the purple stripe at the bottom of the page. Threads in the archives are listed in reverse order. Oldest to newest. So you have to go to the last page of threads to get to the newest threads.

Hey I just notice I lost my status as a senior member why?
The new forum software has only three "user titles". User titles are the status thing you're talking about. Right now the ratings are set like this:

0 to 29 posts ----- "Junior Member"
30 to 99 posts ---- "Member"
100 posts and up -- "Senior Member"

We can change them though. I think we should add more maybe. We can have some fun with this too. We can make custom titles (or status). Like for example, if you hit 4000 posts your status becomes "Space Wanna-be". (just kidding Space dude).


Edit: I must have clicked on this thread while Patrick was typing his post. Sorry for the repeat info.
