As a result of our little "incident" the other day, I've decided it was finally time I got around to upgrading the forum software, so here we are!

EDIT: ahhhhhhhh it seems as if the journal i had on my old control panel is gone.

Can we please get some forum rules?

I concur. We also need a reachable moderator, if I may.

Latu, thankfully I haven't deleted the old forums just yet

I'll add the Astroboy smilies when I get home tonight. I'll try to put together some rules too, though I would think the basic stuff (like swearing, etc...) is a given - or it should be anyway.

As for moderators, I've already asked one member if they'd like to help moderate, it would be nice to have 1 or 2 more though. And who says I'm not reachable?
(I know, I've been slack lately)

Thanks for working so hard on all the new updates. I really apreciate it Mark.

- also thanks for telling me my old images

While trying to send a private message, I got:

The following errors occurred when this message was submitted:

1. The text that you have entered is too long (6771 characters). Please shorten it to 5000 characters long.

But then maybe it means that I should learn to write shorter messages...

Woah, that's a huge PM

Perhaps it's best for the time being just to keep the limit in mind when writing messages. While I'd be happy to increase the limit, I'm sure it'd only be a matter of time until someone was complaining that their 10,342 character message wasn't being accepted

I think I wrote much longer PMs in the past! I'm a fast typist, maybe that's why I don't realize I write such long messages, lol!

Of course, I understand! If it was very important, I could always split it in two anyway.

I just had an idea... it's not something important, but I thought it could be amusing. How about making the user titles Astroboy related? I don't know what they could be right now, but maybe together we could try to find funny titles.

I like that idea, but I can't think of a good tiered system.

If this was Dragonball Z, then you could have various levels of Saiyen. If it was Digimon, you could have Mega/Chamption/Ultra or whatever they are. But Astroboy doesn't really have an escallating power theme. Unless you used "10 horsepower", "100 horsepower", "1,000 horsepower" etc. Or for a more obscure reference, "Bo-Bo", "Big-Bo", "Bigger-Bo", "Biggest-Bo". Then me and Jeffbert and Atoman can have a laugh and everyone else will have blank faces.


Would it be a good idea to have a Report button at the bottom of each post, next to the Quote button? So if there's a bad post it sends a PM to one of the moderators.
Oh wait there already is one.
