Forums Upgraded to phpBB3

[Malarne]

So, you might notice things look a bit different. I finally got around to upgrading the forum software to phpBB3, meaning there's a whole bunch of new shiny exciting stuff I haven't discovered yet, and lots of little things that will probably need tweaking.

Hope you enjoy, and if there are any obvious problems or bugs, post 'em here, along with any suggestions for improvement.

So far I haven't been able to get auto-login to work for me.

Minor annoyance.

I noticed this too. It's something to do with the cookies pointing to the domain where the site is being hosted (www.cpcentral.net) versus what url you're using (forums.erebusguild.org). I'll look into a fix, but in the meantime you can change your bookmark to point to:

http://www.cpcentral.net/erebus-guild/phpBB3

and it'll work just fine.

I pretty much can't tell what the fuck is happening on this webpage anymore.

So much more info on every screen. Too much for little brain. Why the fuck is there color to the right here? Can I paint?

It didn't let me paint. Mal, the paint program is broken.

Mike, come back. Please?

[Malarne]

Dude. If you think it's bad here, you should see the control panel for user permissions. It'll make you want to stab your eyes out.

Raises the question, why did you change the forums then? Were they broke?

[Malarne]

Not broken, but old and outdated, and they had a good number of bugs - obviously the posting bugs and spambot false-positives. Plus some of the new peeps were apparently having registration problems.

I like it. It's cool and clean. Nice work :|

[Malarne]

It'll take some getting used to, but in the long run it's a good change.

The post about updating the forums has the most action these forums have seen in some time. People have come outta the wood works for this shit, systole and stormer =)
