Welcome to the new forum
 
I've added this forum so you can make some test posts in the new forum.

All the posts from the old forum up to about 12pm on Wednesday have been imported.

The user accounts were imported last Thursday (week ago) so you need to login with the same password you used then.

Any questions about it... ask here.

Hi guys,

Sorry for the delay in getting this up and running, it took a little longer than we expected. This is currently a "working beta" version of the board. What I mean by that is we've imported all posts/u2us onto the vBulletin, but the board is far from finalised. The reason we are doing this is because every day we prolong it, more posts would be cut off and not be able to be transferred.

For now you can post as normal, while James and I work through the discussions we had on the beta board and start to implement the changes.

Please don't complain about the theme, or certain things that haven't been added yet... just give us time to sort it all out please! :blush: We know your concerns and issues, and will sort them given time.

In the meantime have a play around! As far as social groups go, if you created the original long thread on TiBB and want to make a social group on it, you have the first rights. If a load of duplicate groups are made, the one which was created on TiBB will get priority. Eg Markwaldorf for Britney stuff, Andyman for Brotherhood etc.

I'm away for a day or two now, but feel free to PM me if you have anything you want sorting out.

Mark

Maybe, not sure. It was a lot of work to get last week's posts across after the main transfer of posts.

King Gizzard 08-10-2009 11:05 PM

Fair enough

Christina 08-10-2009 11:09 PM

Not for now. VB themes are bit more complicated to do also. I'll see if I can install more choices.

"I TIIINK IM GONNA LIKE IT HERRE!"

(it's from "annie" bitches"

The only think thats annoying me is that my PM box is full. I have 2000+ PM and it only allowe 1000.

Princess 08-10-2009 11:58 PM

The one thing thats annoying me is the stupidly short pages in threads,that can get fixed right?

Animated avatars (over 125kb I think) don't work at the moment because on this forum the avatars are all stored on this server, and I want to make sure performance is okay. Will decide later whether it can be changed to allow remote (eg. tinypic, imageshack) avatars. You can still use those in signatures.

Check your timezone in User CP - Edit Options. There is an option for daylight saving time. The time might sort itself if that is on. Not quite sure how that works yet.

I think you can in the User CP on "Edit Options" :elephant:

Princess 09-10-2009 12:06 AM

Oooh thanks Chewy! I checked before and couldn't see it. Is it bad that I want 25 per page back,lol! I'm being too fussy :P

Scarlett. 09-10-2009 12:07 AM

Lol no problem, I might change it too, saves time :D

James 09-10-2009 12:13 AM

I might change the default to 20 or 25, hmm.
