New Version of phpBB

Thanks djensen!

Just the software.

@CWO:

Since we switched to the new forum software, I haven’t been able to post any picture attachments successfully.  The system gives me the attachment option, but when I use it the system gets hung up and what gets posted is a faulty file that doesn’t open.   I’ve tried using two different browsers (I.E. and Chrome) and it failed to work in both cases.  Has anybody else run into this problem?

It’s not new software. It’s a new server. Well, I did also upgrade the version of the forums software, which could be causing these issues.

SMF is a terrible platform and I will be making it go away soon enough. I plan on working on this project starting tomorrow.

Most serious spammers use IP rotators and are impossible to ban. Each and every spam attempt will appear to come from a different IP address. They have been at it for a long time and are intent on advertizing for free.

Moderators should copy and paste the rules in their entirety into any post

Yes good point i was gonna make. The text of the rules should be crafted in a manner where exact conduct code can be copied and posted in these threads for consistency. This not only treats bad posts universally, but gives moderators a constant reference to the rules so they understand them.

@Yanny:

Read the announcement forum post :)

I should have came back and noted that I found that post…

I think the biggest transition problem has been that all the imported messages were marked as “new.” But that should go away after a few days.

Also over the next few weeks I hope tp change the look to be more like the main website. However, I’ll probably leave the feel alone. Look meaning images, colors, and graphics. Feel meaning placement, organization, and flow.

Expect about 1/3 of the posts in the Variants forum to be moved there. If a post of yours has disapeared, theres a good chance I put it in there (might of done it by accident, kinda Mass-Modding here :))
