...what do you mean, it's not 2008 yet? I don't see how that's at all relevant. >_>

Anyways. Been surviving over here in China, eager to get home in July at the earliest, not looking forward -at all- to the finals in these classes.

Listening: Competent.
Speaking, Grammar: Mediocre.
Reading Comp: ...ohgodI'mgonnadie.

I fixed my PS2 which has been broke since 2001. Go me!

Greetings adventurers!
New forum looks nice.
I came for the mafia and I stayed for the welcome post.

Dunefar · « **Reply #3 on:** December 18, 2007, 02:40:49 PM »

I've used this forum software before, it's pretty nice. Now we just get to wait for everything to get setup as normal.

Aren't all the old topics being ported over?

Halbarad · « **Reply #4 on:** December 18, 2007, 02:44:17 PM »

They are not. Primary reason for the move is that the old database was getting too big (nearly 300MB), which increases the likelihood of database errors like what may have nuked the Suikoden mafia topic.

I am alive and testing my signature and stuff. Yay new forum!

Strago · « **Reply #6 on:** December 18, 2007, 03:19:44 PM »

Hoorah for new forums. These look nice.

Now how do I change my signature/avatar/that sort of thing? Change is sometimes difficult for fake old men.

Shale · « **Reply #7 on:** December 18, 2007, 03:25:14 PM »

Profile link at the top of the screen, then "forum profile information" on the left-hand menu bar.

Strago · « **Reply #8 on:** December 18, 2007, 03:27:41 PM »

Kyar, found it right after I asked. Thanks, though.

And apparently [size=9] on these forums makes things colossally enormous.[/size]

Er, size 9. Heh. See?

Shale · « **Reply #9 on:** December 18, 2007, 03:28:56 PM »

Yeah, that happened with my sig too. The new software uses point measurement for font size (size=6pt, etc), and if you leave off the "pt" you get multiples of normal. Default is 10 point, so size=9pt is no difference at all, size=9 is [size=9]GINORMOUS[/size].

Woah, weird. Ciatos are not adjusted to change either.

Strago · « **Reply #11 on:** December 18, 2007, 03:31:12 PM »

Ahh. Well that at least makes a little sense. Cool.

Strago · « **Reply #12 on:** December 18, 2007, 03:31:42 PM »

Woah. These forums notify you when somebody has posted while you were typing a post. Cool.

DomaDragoon · « **Reply #13 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:08:34 PM »

*yawn* Morning. I know the old topic won't be being ported over, but will they at least be saved in an archive like the old, old boards were? (Or was it old, old, old boards? I can't remember.)

Edit: At least, besides the topic in which they already are (the annuals are, but not the weekly in DL Main).

Xeroma · « **Reply #14 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:15:26 PM »

Mmm, new boards look good. Though I hope that Hal can make more themes for it like with the last one, the base one feels a bit... off.

Shale · « **Reply #15 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:16:57 PM »

Doma: Hal hasn't said anything about deleting the old boards, so I'm hoping they're not going anywhere.

Cotigo · « **Reply #16 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:22:09 PM »

It's not 2008 yet fuckwit.

Anyway, whoaaaaa. New forums. Snazzy. And they tell you if someone posted while you were reading. This'll be good for mafia.

Hm. Back home for the holidays. Let's see how long it takes for this shithole of a town to revert me back to homicidal maniac. >_>

EDIT: Holy shit inline edit

Shale · « **Reply #17 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:24:27 PM »

Oooh, those buttons at the top change the color of the non-black forum graphics. Nifty.

That'll help for Mafia, certainly.

EDIT: Darn you, Zenny.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #19 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:29:27 PM »

New forums! Hooray!

Okay, do we get cookies?

InfinityDragon · « **Reply #20 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:32:23 PM »

Mmm...forum switch just in time for my Federal Estate and Gift Tax exam. Everything looks cool though.

I'll get my avatar and sig later in the day after the three hours of hell are over >.>

AAA · « **Reply #21 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:35:00 PM »

I miss SubBlack.

VySaika · « **Reply #22 on:** December 18, 2007, 04:39:04 PM »

Whargibly. Just checking in here and such.

Shale · « **Reply #23 on:** December 18, 2007, 05:06:39 PM »

Heeey, something I didn't notice before.

See that little icon of a piece of paper below the "modify" and "delete" buttons on your posts? That's an in-line edit tool. Neat.

Dunefar · « **Reply #24 on:** December 18, 2007, 05:59:57 PM »

Christmas shopping: Done for now. I hope you appreciate DQM:J, aiel.
