Nice new vBulletin, Azrael. Where did you get the money to buy a license for it?

[Azrael]

Paypal donations.

[Marblehead]

my god man! :eek: What happened? :confused:

I like the new digs. Pretty cool. :cool:

I feel sorry for Jay-man. All that work. ;)

[Excel-2008]

Good call.

[TheLostProphet]

Cool =)

Hey, will we ever get avatars back? Maybe I'm just a newbish young lad, but I can't seem to change it from "Do not use an avatar"

[Excel-2008]

Do you plan on retaining support for user-defined Custom Titles?

[General_Admission]

What about different skins?

It hurts my eyes to look at a bright screen at night. :(

There was a cool skin last time that was dark with white text.

[Excel-2008]

It's a shame all of the old posts are gone. I was going to show my family my magnificent Penpal application.

Do you plan on removing [img] support?

[TheLostProphet]

Y'know what this means....the Penpal heats are on again. Who will it be? Who? WHO?

[Daishikaze]

AH FUCK! Now I gotta repeat myself when people re-ask all the questions from the old board, I hate that ;P

No, it's not. Before the wipe, Azrael locked the Penpal topic and said he would select from whoever posted before the lock.

I did my best to make my intentions known. Did you?

[Sedated]

It's strange getting used to this after the old familiar look hehe, but it's pretty nice.

[D-pad]

Az this sucks..............it's all confusing and shit and I can't seem to get an avvy! And besides Mr Green the smilys suck!

[Saitou Hajime]

Yay, VBulletin. I'm so used to VBulletin forums, so this is a good switch for me.

Also, are we missing a board? lol. The Off-topic discussion, I forget the exact name, that used to be the first board...

[TheLostProphet]

I did my best to make my intentions known. Did you?

Kind of....but in the Editorials forum XD

Then I go into the Japanese Teacher forum and see a 3 page topic already there, with some guy who nearly posted a CV. I only did 2 paragraphs =p

[X the Eliminator]

I thin k it's the general forum that's missing ... the room with padded walls seems to still be there.

That was me. I was Excel 2005 at the time.

[Saitou Hajime]

Looks like Az hasn't had time to play around with board settings yet lol. As has been said before, avatars are disabled, along with ima- :looks up: Oh, there're images now.

[Stele]

Ah, but at least now trolls like me don't feel intimidated by you guys and your 1,000,000,000 posts.

[Mozz]

Lucky me, I was about to sign up this morning, i would have had to sign up twice ~,^

[NeonWonder]

Hi Guys, long time reader, first time poster. Just wanted to say hey to everyone on the new boards, very spiffy if I must say so myself. I've been reading things on outpostnine since I think may/june of 05, decided to start an account, so I could discuss thigns with everyone. Truly great pieces of literature Az, I'm glad my friend shoed me the site. ^^*)b again, nice to meet you all.

[X the Eliminator]

Yeah, I had been visiting the site for the past two weeks and was about to sign up a couple of days ago but didn't.

Edit - Appears the General Forum is now up.

[Nights_into_dreams]

Hmmm...

Its interesting, but gonna take time to get used to...I hate change >.<

At any rate, glad to see you are moving on up on board quality Az!

[Eleriel]

me is impressed. and also - appearantly - here. =^_^=

[TheLostProphet]

That was me. I was Excel 2005 at the time.

Wow...You should win it then =p

Anyway, enough of my post-whoring *disapparates to another forum*

[X the Eliminator]

The new board is quite nice. Too bad we lost all the stuff from the previous forum, but I guess that's the price of progress.

[Excel-2008]

I wouldn't mind having this moved to General Discussion.

[X the Eliminator]

I wouldn't mind having this moved to General Discussion.

Yeah, now that it's up this should probably be moved there.

[Azrael]

Sorry all, I'm very sleepy (4AM) and can't tinker with the board anymore. You'll just have to let it be as is until I wake up and can work on it some more.

[Excel-2008]

You can always call me. I have experience in online message board administration.

[Nights_into_dreams]

...10 posts a page. That's just sick...

Can you up the post count any per page Az?

[Daishikaze]

Go to you CP and click on Edit Options, you can change it yourself

[Marblehead]

yeah what he said.

[MeneerDijk]

Wow, just wow, i'm going to have to get used to this new layout and controls, but i bet it will grow on us

[Saitou Hajime]

It will. I had to make the adjustment to VBulletin at a forum I moderate at. Once I got used to it, I liked it better than the original.

[phagan]

Am I the only one who prefers the old PhP BB over this new vBulletin? The latter just seems unnecessarily complicated.

I miss the old one...

[KKF]

I actually perfer the old one I hate the format of this one. Oh well not my call. :)

[Thespis]

There are a lot more features on this one. It will take some getting used to for a lot of people. Another board I frequent uses this exact same setup and most over there, including the administrator, like it a lot.

[sakana]

Y'know what this means....the Penpal heats are on again. Who will it be? Who? WHO?
Yeah whats going on with that? Hmm Ive got a new SN now too...

[kawaii]

i kinda liked the old board more, this looks kinda annoying :\
but oh well, i'll have to get used to it -__-

Yeah I liked the old board better... Oh well it'll have to grow on me. Once more people re-register it'll seem more like the old forum.

[Stormhammer]

I can't believe I missed this place all this time. Glad to see you have your own place Az!!!

-Stormhammer-

[sakana]

No, it's not. Before the wipe, Azrael locked the Penpal topic and said he would select from whoever posted before the lock.

I did my best to make my intentions known. Did you?But if Az didnt geta chance to consider everyone before the wipe he might have to re-ask. Plus say someone like me (who changed their screen name) wins? How will he inform them?

[Ybbor]

Lucky me, I was about to sign up this morning, i would have had to sign up twice ~,^

I just signed up last night; I did sign up twice :p

luckily I had no posts to loose though

[Dead Sexy Vocab]

I was "imabletouse Vocabulary," but I felt that stupid underscore messed up the true meaning of the name.

So, after rockin' on to Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Jump On It!" and hours on end figuring out what is a good and proper Forum Name, I shall be now be referred to "Vocab, Jump On It!"

I too feel pity for all of Jay-Man's works going down the drain. :D

Nice new vBulletin, Azrael. Where did you get the money to buy a license for it?


I am jelous of you. You were the first one to post.

At least I was the first 3 digit person on the board.

I really like this new forum. It needs avatars enabled, it needs sigs enabled, and perhaps different skins to choose from, but so far it's amazing.


..10 posts a page. That's just sick...

Can you up the post count any per page Az?

You can change it somewhere in your profile.

Hey Vocab. Would you do me the favor of E-mailing me that Dancing Vegita? I have the dancing bear one, but Vegita is quite simply the pimp of all pimps and I would like to add it to the collection. Thanks.

[phagan]

I didn't feel this was important enough to create a whole new thread for, so I'll just post it here.

I have a little problem with my new account, when I registered I accidentally wrote my name all in lower cases. Is there anyway to fix this, without me creating a new account, that is?
