wait, nm on the images, it was a profile issue
The good: It's fast, really fast. woohoo!
The bad:
- Hmmm, avatars were working earlier but aren't now.
- There's no page selection at the top of the thread, only at the bootom.
- It looks too... I dunno.... square? No, that's not it, but whatever it is, it's no where near as aesthetically pleasing as it was. And the colours seem bland. It just looks dull.
But lets not forget the good, it's fast! Which is far more important than looks.
Ironically, in 2006 I specifically joined FTP because it was PhpBB and I HATED 2+2's forum which may or may not have been vBulletin @ the time. I still like PhpBB better but I can get used to this, too.
Yea I am sure the aesthetic part will be taken care of for sure, little adds and shit will surely be done once X and gmml get the problems fixed.Quote:

Guys, please everyone clear your cache! I think the refresh bug is gone now.
It still might not be 100% worked out with forums, but threads should be okay. We're looking deeper into the forum issue.
reply test
text not being at the top of replies sucks!
goddamn I love the speed of this, though
i love how fast this is but there are a few niggles. I don't really like how the size of the avatar changes the margin. I don't know how to explain this better, but for example bode's posts begin a lot further to the left than xtr's and hawkfan's. I just think it looks really untidy...
Also, when opening a thread for some reason it was using the cached version in my browser instead of reloading the page and therefore loading the new posts. I have to press refresh to update the page. This hasn't happened for a while though so I don't know if you've done something to fix this already?
oh sorry i was reading page 2. GJ on fixing this :)Quote:

Please look for "Vertical orientation." It is probably on "centered." Change it to "top." EZGAME

nice job guys!
yay no more waiting for threads to load!!!
I fucking lol'd. Also, wtf no more quote tunnels? Multiquote doesn't quite cut it imoQuote:

Me likey. Fixed profile settings and had to F5 a couple of times but speed is goooooooood.
So much faster now. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Couldn't get anything to refresh yesterday, but alls well today.
Does the view new posts work for anyone? Everytime I choose that button I get taken to the first area in the thread where I ended up the first time I hit view new posts for that particular thread. And everything shows up as new now.
I had an issue with view posts since last visit till I refreshed it. I had to change my shortcut too since I have that saved in my browser bar.
yeah, I typically go from the "View posts since last visit" results to a thread I want to read then hit the back button to go back the results, but the thread I've just visited doesn't unbold. minor issue though. I'm totally loving the speed.
yea I go down the list and open alll the thraeads I want to read in new tabs, then I have to hit the button to bring up the list again and hit F5 to get the bolded type out of the way. GMML is still working on the main forum pages refreshing far as I know
Starting to look more like home with the FTR spade icons added.
Threads should also refresh correctly now as well, need to clear cache. If anyone is still having an issue with that, let me know.
any way we can get links to look different from regular text? obv it underlines when you hover over it, but its easy to miss some links entirely.
also, posts seem to count in all forums now?

Aesthetics aside since gmml is working on them, I'm lovin the vBulletin
I'm surprised the move wasn't sooner. vBulletin seems to be pretty standard. I would guess there will be a gradual increase in traffic around here too. The lag was just awful
Also, might I suggest making url links colored for the easy spotting
Please fix the vertical orientation to top...not center. This is tilting me so hard.
Me too.Quote:

Also, how do I get it to send me an email when someone makes a post? I have my email info down in my profile, but I don't see anything in there that'll do it.
I fail hard, should have read page 2 first lmfao. :(
great job on the site guys
FTR security could use an upgrade
I'm all the security you need. ;)
well played
Apparently rilla gave you the optical pat-down, determined you were not a security risk, then cleared you for passage
+1 for the improved speed
But it looks a little unsightly, sure this will be fixed soon.
Also on the homepage, the forum topics displayed don't update correctly.
Seems to be a lot of problems with " quotes" in text where it looks like things are copied and pasted or are converted from another format. In quick reply they seem fine.
i hate this!!
i had an awesome avatar now its gone :(
Read the thread Chelle. You need to adjust your profile and clear the cache

And links should be blue and underlined. At least one or the other.

I cant change my avatar and it drives me insane how threads i´ve read a million times still are bolded as if there was something new in it.
fUCK THAT! I WANT ALL MY LETTERS CAPPED!

the poker forum-tab on the FTR main page is broken

What blue highlighted links?Quote:

I want to say 25% of the threads I read are marked as unread but I have in fact read them. Some even have me as the last poster in them.
Also, there's this 500 pound gorilla running amok. Can we call pest control?
try going to the bottom of the poker forum index page and click on "mark all threads as read". seems to have fixed it for me so far

This new forum has more issues than the Jersey Shore. UG also has herpes...like snooki
It seems to be marking all threads as read where applicable now. I don't have to use refresh as much, if it all now. GJ admins
and I had to hit shift f5 to see the last post when quick replying.....FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
When I click on a thread that has a new post in it: it doesn't change. it still looks like I haven't read it yet. I've been having to click on the 'mark all threads as read' thingy.

What are the chances of us getting Facebook-style chat? I know Meebo powers this kind of chat and chess.com has this kind of chat.
I think it'd be pretty cool.
Live FTR chat would be so epic its promotion deserves its own thread.Quote:

i can no longer see hand histories. I just see a bunch of links that take me to gif images. I use firefox.
It's a HUGE improvement on speed. Everything loads much faster. I like it. Thanks!Quote:

Hello. And Bye. msg08h08werhf
I don't know what we used to have before vBulletin, but I'm convinced it was much better. Let us go back to those good ol' days immediately.
Forums were painfully slow IIRCQuote:
