As you can see, it looks a bit different.

Bear with me on the Aesthetics, just got to figure out how it works and make it look nice!

Any issues, let me know in here.

Is there still the option to increase the number of posts per page you can view?

 

[matesx]

is it my eyes or is everyone getting blurry avatars?

Just looking into that!

Yep, looking into that too

You want mine in HD?!?

Any bits you don't like, let me know and I can try to resolve them!

 

[ajsccfc]

Alright, Samaritans.

 

[robbiekeane]

I think it's better. Once you've sorted the colour scheme out or whatever, it generally runs smoother for me in chrome and the text formatting toolbar is great.

 

[standupforcity]

If it ain't broke don't fix it comes to mind!

 

[covcity4life]

was there any reason in particular to change? not sure why websites update when not required

likes have all gone. might just turn to the dark side now and become a full time troll

 

[covcity4life]

can you make the quote boxes a different colour? not really standing out at the mo in peoples posts

 

[SkyBlueScottie]

The whole thing is a ghastly outrage

Yeah, the other software was pretty dated and vulnerable to hacking. The newer version was shockingly bad.

There were issues like it not letting people edit on mobiles and it didn't work well on phones.

This should be a lot quicker too! Just a tad bland with no colour yet!

As someone who is not well liked, I like the fact that the likes have disappeared.

I think it would be an ideal time to just disable the "like" function completely.......I believe majority of users on here are grown men....surely our egos are not that fragile?

...I say this as a poster who has just lost one of the strongest ratios on the old forum by the way......like me like me like me....

I am looking at moving them over manually

 

[bawtryneal]

Hhhmmmmm, not sure but early days.
Why change Nick?? Just refreshing or for technical or commercial reasons.

Excellent.....didn't mean it for a second.....

If software stagnates it becomes very easy for someone else to break if they were so inclined.

That's the thing, vBulletin was getting quite easy to hack. The forum software very heavy and slow, this is a lot lighter and faster.

Ignoring how it looks and colours as I will fix that!

Makes sense. Sure it will look great in next 48 hours.

It asserted the fact I am always right...

Admittedly with some posters, it seemed they got automatic likes even if they said that they were tucking into a turd meringue pie for tea.

Hopefully, got to get my head around it but it have a few things in mind to brand it nicely!

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

liked for the "turd meringue pie"....

.....Oh look....you were right

 

[fernandopartridge]

You bastard, Nick. My like : post ratio was on the up.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

I might just go the whole facebook liking way, and like all tragic news.

 

[Nick]

Don't worry, I have them all backed up. I am putting the old forum somewhere so I can look them up and manually change them!

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

I can confirm that Grendel, Tony & Italia only had 1 like each......that's a fact, no need to check Nick....

This is maybe a little extreme!

I had 10,000 likes to save you a job.

I need the old one to refer back to anyway! I won't do every single one, just those who are bothered!

 

[MusicDating]

Seems like the migration went pretty well Nick! Looks fine and dandy on Chrome on my S4 with all the features of the full site.

One thing, I've activated the panic button feature, but don't see an icon for it anywhere?
