[nacho]

this new look really sucks old one was way better and always will be
maybe u could revert to the 'old-look' whilst keeping any technical changes?

Well, when we first switched over, lots of people were glowing about the new layout - without even realising that this is the new stock standard SMF 2 layout.

There are plans for a custom forum skin, but aesthetics are the least of our concerns at the moment, especially when pretty much everyone has said that it looks adequate as is.

While we are all here, is respect working properly or is it abit out of whack?

Hmmmm. An anti-spam measure, looks useful for AN

It may be shortsighted of me to say so, but I don't really see how it'd be useful... We just ban spambots and trolls.

Wait, we're supposed to ban them?  I thought we were supposed to just eat them...  Oops sorry.

You ATE the [censored] spambot???

I need a puke emoticon.


Edit: I decided I didn't want anyone unfamiliar with this term to go and google it, so I censored myself just in case...

Moderator action: removed real name, sorry for the inconvenience

Seems to be working.

A fair few of my posts have "no one has voted yet" even if it is +2 or whatever... and my respect hasn't changed since the upgrade.

Yeh mine went up by 2 when it should have gone up by one, then back down to what It should have been after the upgrade, but hasn't changed since. Just to check, is it still 3 up votes for 1 respect plus 0.2 for each vote after that or do I just have it all wrong?

If thats right, then this didn't change Re: ssNake's Chemistry [u2] Q's

[jane1234]

Yeah this didn't change mine either:

EDIT: Um... why did my respect just drop by 19?

Because you're impatient! :p I ran some tests. Respect is working properly. However, post scores were cached from before the upgrade... Since the whole respect system was redone... Those were all wrong. Had to recount all the post scores... However... That changed the member respect scores to what they should be currently if previous respect scores from the old forum weren't taken into account. So I ported respect scores from my most recent backup back over. Everything should be okay now.
