Well, it's not too different from the old board, which is good ;)

First of all, thanks for putting up the old boards archives!! ;D
Now everyone can read all the wise, witty posts I made all those years ago... actually, that might not be such a great idea :P

As for the new features -
I like the 'insert quote' option... that would save much cutting & pasting on those 'reply to everyone' posts :)
It's nice to see who's on the same thread with you, but I miss the 'who's online' feature.
Also... I lost my avatar on the board change :( and the 'Message' box is larger here, I'll have to re-calculate where the lines split :P
But the thing that bothers me the most is not seeing the poster's original name on the link by hovering on the user name. Now there's just no way you can tell who's who if they decide to change their name on a daily basis (or even on a monthly basis, where I'm concerned) :-\
Personally, I think nick changes shouldn't be allowed at all... Pick one and stick with it, people!  ::) :P

It's still around! Scroll down to where it shows the users logged in, and click the link that says "x guests online, x users online". (X is a random number :P)

Hehe, I still can't believe you used to go through all that hassle of replying with multi-coloured text!  ;D

Yup, it's definitely one of my faves, even though I don't tend to do multi-user quoting that often. :P

I think you may see their username if you view their profile, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

EDIT: Actually nvm, I just realised that it's on a separate admin-only screen. ::)

Yeah, but the old 'who's online' screen also let you see what each of those members/guests is doing... made it so much easier to stalk people ;P

Heheh, of course not... but I don't like the lines splitting in the wrong place, so it's good to know where they would split when writing the post - saves the previewing 8)

You still can see what everyone's doing (Unless the mods are doing mod-ish stuff, then it just gives a cryptic message :P)

Neil deleted the a lot of members that had never posted and hadn't logged in for like a year.

or click the icon directly under "Users Online"(on the main page), or click here. :P

*didn't know you could get to the Users Online page, by clicking "x guests online, x users online"*

Storm

*Smacks head*
Oh, it's a LINK... :P
I was so used to it being on the top row I didn't notice.
Thanks! ;D

Yeah, I deleted the 0-post members who haven't logged in since Jan 2005.  We lost around 300 members, but someone who hasn't signed in for 3 years isn't really a "member" anyway. :P

I agree with you, Yonkey. New forums are pretty cool. I like it! Congratulations to you guys who became moderators.
