upgraded forum!

[vynsane]

phpbb is really close to a final release of the 3.0 version of phpbb forum, and i figured i'd upgrade to the release candidate to check it out. what do you think?

[Eternal Padawan]

Ooooooo....fancy!

[anarky]

It'll take some getting used to, but very cool.

Are you going to tweak the colors a bit (especially the "read" and "unread" icons)?

[vynsane]

i'll probably wait until they release the final version before i tweak anything, but yeah, they're a bit too alike.

It lookes liek GAY BUT!!!!!

[Double_G]

It'll take some getting used to. But Snigtad's still a fagmuff, so it's looking familiar already.

Pretty spiffy. Avatars on the right is different, but I'll be used to it in a couple days.

[kidhuman]

I think it blows honestly. But in a few days I will be used to it. Fuckin change, why does it have to fuckin change?

[Sambo]

I done tried logging in dis mo'ning down at de liberry and a big ol flag came up on my screen dat said "WHITES ONLY!" and some fancy new forums. I had to come in thru de back entrance like it was 1955!! You crackers done went and got me pissed off! Lawds yes you did!! I don't know how much more a yo BULLSHIT I'm a take! I'm a call Reverend Jackson! We gonna pray! Lawd yes, we gonna pray! Hallelujah!! Fuck all y'all crackers!!

I can't believe this but I agree with Shithead Flornbi.

[Antropov]

It's got some neat features, but as of this moment I'm not a fan. I'll get there, but it'll take a minute.

most likely there's a setting to switch them back to the left side, just haven't found it yet.

my most fervent hope is that the new version is more impregnable to fuckin' spammers. that's my main motivation for the change.

really? why? i think the styles are a bit overwhelming, but i can look into hacking it myself or looking for one that's a bit cooler looking.

EDIT: there's an updated version of the original style that you can switch to in your profile. it's called "subsilver 2" as opposed to "prosilver". it has the avatars on the left, and colors and images that look like the old version, but with the new features.

[mabudon]

Okay, "subsilver2" fixed it- the way it looked first kinda looked like ASS

At least it works with win98, tho there's a pretty noticeable lag on my poor stupid PC- can't WAIT for the new machine later this week

Liking the crazy amount of features on this new shit tho, pretty slick

Much better. I'm not a fan of big changes online. I hate the adjustment period to the new stuff.
And I really hated the avatars on the right side.
I'm happy now.

Also, the forums seem slow right today.

The font's kind of gay, but it'll be alright.
