So...

...is this going to be the new board? I dont mind it, its the standard board I see on other sites...I will feel a bit nostalgic about not seeing the green anymore, though.:(

Oh yea, first post ever in General! Yessss.

[axlish]

And thus began a new era... [cue up the Charlton Heston voice-over] :clown:

Nothing will compare to the old board for me. It'll just never be the same, period. The old board is so unique compared to others.

And I think we've broken that place in very well over the years. :D

[Kaos]

Too bad.

[idsaluteyoubub]

Yea it will take some time to get used to it...

By the way, may I ask who Andy is? A different name from a familiar face, or someone completely new?

[idsaluteyoubub]

And awesome...I found the green background...that takes some of the pain away:D

Ssshhhhhh :dead:

oops sorry the green scheme isnt ready for release yet, i'll let you know when it is (still needs tweaking).

and you do have a edit button, please dont double post :)

[Burbank]

I quite like the blue colour scheme. It more cooling... Maybe it will cut down on the flaming!

Stamping his authority already!

...gonna take a lot of getting used to, change sucks! lol :confused:

Not sure if you folk in the know can lurk into the code and speed it up a little, or even modify the code to make it feel more like Loom again? I wouldn't know what it's all about, not into all this coding stuff and so on and so forth...

Errr...Yawn04 blows - there...now it feels more like home.

So, if this will indeed be the new place, how long till zero hour?

What's this "rep power" thing? Also where did everyone get the cool footers from?

[Andy]

if you like someones post, say you agree with their opinion or like a joke or something, you can add to someone's reputation by pressing the "http://www.homepageofthedead.com/vbb/images/buttons/reputation.gif" button in that post.

Similarly, if you dislike someone's post, it offends you, you disagree with a opinion or dont like a joke, you can give that person negative reputation in the same way.

any comments you leave along with reputation points are completly annomynous and the person you have given points too cannot see who did it (moderators can however and we will be monitoring this)

over time it builds up and everyone can see what kind of member you are :p

and you can change your signiture by clicking Here (http://www.homepageofthedead.com/vbb/profile.php?do=editsignature) and entering what you like.

:)

[Burbank]

I like that idea. Nice to see you've given yourself quite the high rating!

[Andy]

it does that for admins for some reason :confused:

(check out neils :p )

i could reduce it but i dont wanna :p

[Cereval]

Not sure if you folk in the know can lurk into the code and speed it up a little

If I could, I certainly would. But like I mentioned to Neil, it's either the PHP engine or the server ... it's a bit slower than Loom. It might even be the version of the forum - the Winamp forums (http://forums.winamp.com/) run a previous version of VBB and it's lightning fast ...


Also where did everyone get the cool footers from?

They were handed out at the meeting. Didn't you get the memo? :confused:

Wooooo ... I like this feature ... definitely cuts down on the real estate that posts can occupy when replies are to multiple parties. :D

[LoSTBoY]

It's looking pretty good, although I think the blue colour scheme is making me blind :confused: bring back the green! :)

Heheh I like that idea, Andrenochrome (or however it is spelled) is going to have a tough time getting his rates up.

How about some more zombie themed smilies? I guess they can be nicked from other sites. :evil:

I'm screwed :eek:

[erisi236]

I actually quite like the Blue, long live...umm change? :rockbrow:

[Andy]

I'm screwed :eek:
well like i said, we (the staff) can and will be monitoring reputation marks and comments, and if you feel you've been given some unfairly, you can always report it, we can edit or remove it too.

in fact im gonna add a section into the rules about reputation misuse.

good idea...err...andy :D
