Back up on phpbb3 and other upgrades!

Well we were down for way longer than expected due to permission problems that needed fixing, but we are now back up!

There are still several things missing, but they should be replaced or fixed in the near future.

Eventually we will be adding some new themes, but for now this is our only one. We are looking for dark themes only.

Some things on this upgrade have changed, but I tried to keep the theme mostly the same as the old one.

During the downtime we also upgraded some system software that the old phpbb was preventing us from doing due to requirements.

This new board should be much faster than the old clunky one with rushed modificationss, and we hope to keep it that way. Thanks to phpbb for their software, it was worth the wait.

One more thing... some of you might be happy with is that we have erased all warnings and bans except for a select few who will remain banned. So it's a clean slate for everyone reading this, but that doesn't give you a license to go out breaking rules, please make sure you are still familiar with them.

Finally the boards are back up. I'm loving the new Phpbb3!
I'm just going to need to get use to it. Also my font is extremely small as I type this up.

I will agree with the small part. I'll need stronger glasses if I have to squint at what I'm posting any more. I do love the font color option, maybe I'll get around to posting in a color all the time.

...It will take some getting used to though.

There are a few spacing errors, but so far, most of the update seems for the best. (other than the spacing errors)

They all defaulted to 120px with the new system. Just re-add your avatar with the height and width boxes empty and it'll be fixed.

I want to disable the word filter

Well I guess having a go at the fight caves again was a great way to pass the time.

Although I can't see any images. Is that just me? It is isn't it?

EDIT: It was me, the images are slowly loading up now.

I like the new quote look too.

Anubis · **Posted:** December 15th, 2007, 4:43 pm

Strange tbh, but it looks nice - especially the quote boxes. Nevertheless we'll all get used to it eventually

On the board I installed, there was...
C'mon, Mike, some of us are old enough to look at naughty words.
