Forum upgrade discussion thread.

This is awesome. I love VB version 4. lol

what do you guys think?

[~*Red*~]

It's awesome, but I went down from 5,156 posts to 5,040 and lost loads of reputation points, which sucks.

[Zandan]

Well...a lot of RPG stuff was deleted...

Very disappointing...

[Capernicus]

It's sad that you noticed something so small Red. I think the new set up looks stupid. Do the old skins that Pooky worked so hard to make work on this new version of VB? Bleh.

I know Cap ^_^;;

And I'm with you on that one - I'd love to have the old skins back too.

THIS ISNT' FAIR. I miss my old AF. It's scary and new!! Uh and the color is blinding me!!

[Miss Moonlight]

It looks refreshing and modern, I think. It will take a bit getting used to, though. I didn't notice a change in my reputation, I thought it stayed the same ...

As for the (old) blog entries, the vbplaza (bank and gift system, etc.), I will kinda miss those, lol

[Ms. Lucy]

Well, this forum was just upgraded,
so we really don't know what will happen
in regards to threads, reps, posts, ect.
(Thats how I feel anyways)
Maybe they will be revived, maybe not.

And yeah, I completely understand your frustration Red.

Hopefully everything will be revived.

[Skylar1]

K, just did a round about, and everything works fine. No errors thus far.

Made a new user group.

[Señor Nobody]

It's alright, but I miss the skins.

[Cantelope]

Well, it seems chat isn't working anymore, but I'm sure it'll be back soon. As for the skins, I have strong reason to believe that we'll have to make brand new ones. Make the slaves in the AG forums get to work imho.

In any case, refreshing, but everything looks so different now I'm having trouble finding where I want to go. I expect I'll be used to it soon, but the forums look so RADICALLY different it's a bit disconcerting. I wasn't even sure I was on the right forum at first because it's the default skin, and all it says at the top is vBulletin. Let's get the forum back to top shape ASAP please, it looks too naked right now!

[GameGeeks]

It's awesome, but I went down from 5,156 posts to 5,040 and lost loads of reputation points, which sucks.

Everything since about May 9th at 2 pm was lost.

[Gjallarhorn]

Remember, this just happened. There will still be changes coming up to the current system. I'm sure Ace has some interest in re-adding some of the old forum hacks we had, and I'm sure we'll eventually get new skins (@Caps: LPS made most of the skins).

I just hope we'll get the more recent posts back, since there was some good threads recently made, as well as those made by people looking for anime identifications and recommendations. There was also an excellent post explaining the various Gundam universes and a general explanation of the franchise that was made recently but isn't there now.

[Velvet_Nightmare]

This is ttly weird yo o_o can we has old skins back at least, the white background is hurtful on the eyes. D:

[GameGeeks]

I just hope the shop gets re-added. Changing other's titles was fun.

[Capernicus]

Oh right, LPS. My memory sucks. This is the most exciting thing to happen to AF since Eris became mod imo, so maybe I'll continue to poke around.

[Gjallarhorn]

Damn straight you'll stick around!

(So happy the dancing banana emoticon is still here)



To everyone else, just give it some time. I'm sure Ace still has a lot he plans to do with it; things will happen, be patient.

[Miss Moonlight]

Lulz. AF might be better now that caps is here.

[Cantelope]

Also, I thought it'd be important to mention:

THE DAI-GURREN DAN IS LOOKING FOR MANLY SOULS!

ORE GA DAREDA TO OMOTTE YAGARU?!

[Digital Dragon]

Everything will be fine regardless. I have been on forums before when they moved sites or were upgraded. The shock was just really great when I came on here and it was back using my old sigs.

[Bulf]

I like it so far. It's nice, simple and clean. I hope we get the banners back though, that'd be nice. As far as chat, it's still working for me o_o.

[Wolfie Poo]

(So happy the dancing banana emoticon is still here)

Inorite! I was concern about my Sig.

Is it me or is the forums lagging like hell? /:

[Memento Mori]

I know everyone's really mad about the blog posts being gone as of today.

So far, though, I think everything's great. I really love the new lay-out. A huge change made a big difference, and this might be the boost AF needed after months of being boring.

Honestly, I'm not too sad about the gift-giving system being gone. It was just one thing that was nice for the times, but we didn't really need.

[Miss Moonlight]

I know everyone's really mad about the blog posts being gone. And since chat is gone so far, I can see a lot of chat-only members disappearing into the dust.

Yes, exactly. I think a refresh was really a good idea to bring some life back into it.

[Gjallarhorn]

By the way, I want to brag that I got the first 2 bans of the newly upgraded form. Two spambots that had posted in General Anime & Manga.
