Welcome to the upgrade! 2010 is the year we make contact!

Post by VegettoEX » Sun Jan 03, 2010 6:50 pm

It took us plenty of time to do it, but hey... we have plenty of time. None of us are going anywhere, right?

Big special thanks to lost_in_thought for his courageous efforts in converting the old database to the new format. It was nigh-near-impossible to do, but it was done. Big thanks to godofchaos for providing the hosting for this monster of a forum; as you can imagine, we are no lightweight.

And that's really all I have to say. It's business as usual around here. Update your bookmarks, follow the rules, let us know if you run into any issues, and get back into the groove of things!

Not anymore, apparently.

I've noticed there's still something wrong with the smileys, though. A few of them are showing up as broken images for me.

Also, we desperately need to splice in the Daizenshuu EX banner somehow. That default phpbb one is just fugly as all get-out.

It's being worked on.

The forum isn't even technically "LIVE" yet... Dan just put in the re-direct on the old schuby.org address, so people are finding their way over sooner than I thought :P.

I guess you're not going with the "forums.daizex.com" route, then? Aww. :( Would have made things easier to remember.

Glad to see the place back up, at least! Let me know if you need help setting anything up.

We may still. I'm having some DNS issues that won't let me adjust certain things, so in the meantime... ta-dah~. We'll deal :P.

It'll take some getting used to, but I'm happy the forums are back!
That "font colour" bar over to the right is so tempting to use, but I know this is not the place for me to be playing around w/font colors.

The smilies are smaller, and they look like they have chins now, but they still have the same faces so that's good. :3

While it doesn't affect me hosting it, it's possible my server is gonna take a hit hosting another large forum, so any donations to increase the VPS resources would be GREATLY appreciated, as it would allow the forum to run much more smoother:

I'm terribly compulsive, and it'll take me a while to get used to the new forum, but--

Ooohh, each post has a 'report' button next to it. Me like.

Edit: "At least one new post has been made to this topic. You may wish to review your post in light of this."

Okay, I'm sold.

BTW, what's with the "Friends & Foes" in the control panel?! I mean, we're all friends here, right? riiiiiight?!!

Wow, it is definitely different. I'm kind of OCD like Bussani is, but I'll get used to it in time. Speaking of compulsiveness, the join date is very specific now. I've been to another forum like this before, but still....

Anyway, it looks great! I'll put in a new avatar for the new upgraded forum since Christmas is gone now.

This break went by way too fast....

I really like the update, and perfect timing too- I joined the forum exactly four years ago! I'm going to try posting more, the board's new style is encouraging.

Why are the BBCode and smilies off in the Podcast section?

Everything looks great except for some of the smilies not working right and the lack of our cool banner. Any chance Daizenshuu EX will get a unique banner again? Love the fact you can now quote others in the thread while making a message. Speaking of which . . .

Maybe I'm missing something...but is there a way to get back to the forums once you've entered the Control Panel? I used to just be able to click on the Daizenshuu EX banner at the upper left-hand corner of the screen, but since it's not there anymore, I have to alter the URL in order to get back.
