some missing posts, even a thread about changing servers or something ...

Yeah, we changed server and board as well for the forum.
I didn't expect such a fast change so when I saw the new server already showing on our domain people already started writing here and so I didn't uploaded the last backup of the db I had. Anyway I think we lost very few posts, it's not a big problem.

Of course there are some things to reorganize on the new forum. If you experience any problem just let me know. I know that phpBB2 is not the best board on the net, but at least it's updated (unlike our old IPB 1.3) but anyway I still have the idea to buy another vBulletin license to be used here too...

cool :)
 

wow! it was VERY fast :)

anyway let's try this new hosting service and phpbb2 ... hope we found a nice new home ;)

I'm very impressed guys.... loving the new look! :lol:

i do like the new layout....wow.....well done guys...hope your proud of yourselves...hell i would be...if i had any knowledge of webdesign...etc....but hey well done guys

Re: cool :)
 

I also have an impression that it got faster.
However, I think that marking topics with unread messages with a red image was better (more contrast => more visible). And I liked more the old emoticons :?

Old emoticons and red images will come back soon, maybe today as well, just give me the time to reorganize everything. By now I'm quite busy at work and I'm leaving for Hamburg tomorrow morning... so let's hope to come back home not too late this afternoon and I'll do the job! ;)

Ok, the old emoticons are back as well as the red and blue sim-cards for read/unread forums. I put back some avatars as well (Przemolog, Triband, Malkav), while most of the others (the linked ones) must be reloaded by the owners.

It might be worth people checking the settings in their profile -

I noticed my email address was showing by default



and, um
maybe about half of them - anything over a year old I think

i feel so special i got mentioned without any cursewords following or preceeding it! thanks effendi.....

well, just some days and the forum will have every old features :)

Please help us :o :roll:

good to see you back ...

I was starting to wonder about some drugs and porn :oops:

Sorry, but I was in Denmark (workin' hardly... see the picture below :P ) ...

This is the post no. 1000 :idea:

yes looks like your really busy hehehehheeh

Well, it looks not bad, however phpbb2 is known to have many vulnerabilities which are getting found from time to time, so regular updates are needed. :)

Only small omission IMHO...in last column it used to list not only name of author of last message but the topic as well...that might prove helpful

Otherwise great job.

it is anyway better than using old ipb 1.3 that had no more security updates since long time

p.s. I am aware of some speed problems since transferring on the new hosting provider, so I complained and their tech support moved us to another mysql server ... did anybody notice any improvements starting from tonight?

Yeah the speed now is MUCH better after the change of server, good job Faquick and Dreamhost! :beer: :beer:

Talking about the bulletin board... I'm thinking about buying a vBulletin license for PrepaidGSM as well and use it like we did in Mondo3.... phpBB2 is not bad and it's free, but vB is better and I'm more familiar with it as well...


P.S. I also gave back moderation powers to some of the most trusted and present guys! ;)

Thanks, I love deleting :spam: :roll:

This is a GREAT idea :beer:





:o PS: guys remember to click Adsense sometimes :D

Oh, thanks. :)

Who do you think we are? :lol:

And about the board engine... As a web programmer I know there are no perfect boards, and more features they have more vulnerabilities there are. :( Anyway, it's fast now and looks fine, it's great! :)
