    Default Hey guys working on the boards and adding some new features...

    Working on class/subscription systems... basically new users will have to either put in their time/pay to get to Premier Account status. This account will give people more profile access, forum access (classifieds), blogging, etc... This will protect our normal users from spammers and negative nancy noobs who shouldn't be on the boards. I will also be creating a reset account subscription that will allow banned members to get unbanned for a fee.

    anything else you guys can think of let me know. account changes will take a few days to take effect.

    If someone pays to get unbanned can they start back from 0 on rep and post count?


    Please? The hilarity would be awesome.

    With all the Ballers we have on this site, if you can just pay to get back on then what have you lost?


    Nothing. You learn no lesson.
    Just like the lesson I'm about to teach you about your insolence. Will you learn? Let's see...

    Great job so far Paul. I am loving this a lot more than the old version.

    Echonova- Everyone says they don't care about their reps or post counts, so we will see much they do matter as soon as every single one of them starts bitching if that were to happen. haha

    i would fix the shitty moderator problem this site has been having...

    besides that nothing really -
    it would be cool to have some video section, now that we can embed youtube vids (not requiring a link...)


    by this i mean;
    a place where you're limited to a minute, maybe a minute 30, and someone can start a thread, and other people can put their response in video form....we respond to each other, just like a text thread, but with small videos.
    i think it might be an interesting addition to this place, and people would sure treat each other better if we had a real, moving and talking image to go on instead of just an anonymous name.
    we would still be anonymous for the most part, but of course we would know what you look and sound like

    ia is filled with dorky nerds though so i doubt anyone would do it...


    but thats just a thought from a long time member

    You can't do a SEARCH on previous posts by members. You click on POSTS STARTED or POSTS MADE by any member and it turns up nothing. Later, QD.

    You too good to come out and say hi? I was meeting Fernado to grab a camera lens off him, didn't know you were there or I would have come in said hi.

    Besides, it was a beautiful day yesterday... Who wanted to be inside?


    BTW: You are right... Gen Pop > SM

    I fit just fine. It only takes three gallons of baby oil and a crow bar to get in and out.

    the new earch engine is terrible. if you search something it just list the thread that has relevence to the search criteria. theres no option to display the results in post form, rather than a thread with 100+ post in it.

    Searching people's latest posts seems to be working much, much better now. The layout of the results is pretty confusing, but you're able to search the latest posts made. Later, QD.
