If it's not covered by one of those other categories, you should probably talk about it here. Be nice.

phpBB3

Post by Administrator »

It's upgrade time...

Welcome to the new KG forum, now running phpBB 3.0.

We'll be tweaking things for a while, but it was time to upgrade. I was deleting 10 - 20 spam accounts a day, and I was tired of it.

There are MANY new features, and some things you're used to have changed. Enjoy!

ooooh! It looks so different, and pretty!

I like it!

I wish I could keep the spam bots away from my forum. I get like 50+ a day on some days :(

But I'm not forum savvy like all you masters, so I don't know how to do that! :P

Spell check is automatic. Misspell a word, and it's underlined in red. Control-click that word (right click if you've got a right mouse button) and it will give you a list of suggested corrections.

You've got to be kidding me. I think it looks like crap - but I wanted to get the new version live quickly because of the spam accounts being created.

It's working so far, no spam accounts since I've installed it.

I'm still working on the appearance.

Yeah to me it looks like a 15 year old girls bedroom. Where are the unicorns and N'Sync posters?

It's all bloody crap anyway, when can we set it back to the old default. I remember a few forums where you could set the scheme in your control panel. I was fine with that, I don't need this prettified bullshit

Well, I think it's pretty.

Like My Little Pony pretty.

Can we make T-shirts soon?

Yeah!
Sure, I'll try to be nicer, if you try to be smarter.

Grrr.

That's gotta be one of the most irritating statements I've ever heard.

I'm not much of doctor, but I've got a lot of books about anatomy.

I'm not much of a programmer, but i've got tons of books on C#

I'm not much of a hairdresser, but I've got a nice collection of scissors.

I have an idea. Why don't the admins check the board and see if anybody would want to do it for free... oh... I mean... "for the community?" We could end up with someone who thinks they know what they're doing making a bunch of graphics that look like they're from the 90's and "dark" colors that guarantee things are illegible as possible...

just.like.last.time

And BTW...

The smilie clickers don't work on Saf 3.
The firemen came and broke through the chimney top. And me and Mom were expecting them to pull out a dead cat or a bird. And instead they pulled out my father. He was dressed in a Santa Claus suit. He'd been climbing down the chimney... his arms loaded with presents. He was gonna surprise us. He slipped and broke his neck. He died instantly. And that's how I found out there was no Santa Claus.

Actually... I have a real question, too.

Why use phpBB at all?
