We're Switching Forums!

[Thogrim]

Alright everybody, tomorrow we switch to the new version of our forums, which support phpBB 3.0. All the links on the site will be changed to reflect this switch and everything will proceed as normal albeit a few minor changes the new boards are going through before the designing is finished.

Please don't post on the new forums until the switch is made, because Garfield is updating the database one last time and your post will likely be lost.

We hope to have a much more efficient, appealing, and bot-less forum experience with the new forums.

We hope to see you there!

Forum switching is completed

I miss the old site.
I can't tell which topics are new, what topics are old, and the subtle middle age kind of feel the old one had is gone.
I mean, this site is in no way bad, the colors and banners are nice, but its the little things that we need to improve.

If you want to see what new posts there are then you go to search.php?search_id=newposts

We could do with icons being a bit clearer though.

Cool, I agree on the more obtrusive new post icons- that would be nice.

Also, I dont know, maybe I'm just a cantankerous old man, but I prefer avatars on the left.

[Thogrim]

That's because you've only ever known avatars on the left, Macar. This is the new millenium, we do stuff right these days.

But really, I prefer them on the left too. It's just how 3.0 is, so I'm afraid we'll have to live with it and get used to it.

As for the post icons, I mentioned that to garfield before we even switched. We definitely need something like the gems before, and I'm looking for a recent post mod. I also want outlines for posts.

So, I'm working on it, don't worry!

WOW! and here i thought we were just updating the look of the forums...

Nice job Thogrim and Garf! I still want those little fire looking things.... or we could make blue crystals like Rethite fragments :)

Surprisingly... I actually LIKE the right handed feel. Strange...
