Exclamation Forum Issues

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to apologize for the hiccups that the forum has been having today. I migrated the forum to a new server, and also did about a year's worth of software upgrades - so there are missing buttons, I've had to close the forum a few times, etc.

On a better note, we have a newer anti-spam registration system, the forum is operating faster, and there are a bunch of other minor tweaks that are being rolled out slowly.

Long story short - I'll try to work out any kinks in the next day or two. The forum has been growing steadily, so I want to make sure we don't have any growing pains! If you experience any problems feel free to let me know - but today was the only big upgrade day.

Default It looks great!

Way to go, John C! I really like the forum thread topic explanations that stay around. Should help keep threads in the right places...

No problem. It's absolutely my pleasure!

We have plans to expand the system shortly down the road, so there are better user profiles, the ability for users to keep an online journal or blog, and also a few other things. May take another 6 months or so but something to look forward to nonetheless

Oh, and we have a new logo coming out soon (in a couple of weeks) so we'll have more t-shirts!
