Default Welcome to vBulletin!

Please report any bugs with the new forum software here. It's still a work in progress (theme, permissions possibly, etc.), but it should be mostly done. All posts, users, threads, etc. were moved over.

What's new:
  • A fuckload of vB stuff like AJAX inline editing, WYSIWYG editor, etc. etc. etc. Just play around and you'll find all the cool stuff. images/smilies/wink.gif
  • [YOUTUBE] and [GVIDEO] BBCode by me. See the BBCode help for details.
  • [spoiler] tag -- work in progress

What you need to do:
  1. Go to your profile and pick your timezone.
  2. Set your birthday
  3. Give me time -- I'm still working on stuff
  4. Give me more time -- a new theme is in the works
  5. Report bugs / issues in this thread
  6. Bear with me while I finish the move
  7. Not complain. Quiky and I worked hard on this and I'm not really in the mood for "this sux!!11"

Enjoy!

Working great here, just have to get used to the new schemes. Just one question: will the Video offers / Video requests sections still be completely hidden? When I log off, the "last posts" are private but the section title themselves still show up!

That's how it was before on the old forum, but I'm open to hiding it altogether.

The widget doesn't work properly, it only shows the title of the new thread, not the forum it's in and it only shows new threads, not posts.
