Also,
There is a reputation system in effect now. If you like someone's post click the icon next to their post, if you don't like it click the icon.

But choose carefully because you only get so many + or - in a day!

Point breakdown below:

GROUP NAME +/- Quota

- Members 5/5
- Tier 1 Donator 10/10
- Tier 2 Donator 15/15
- Tier 3 Donator 20/20

Ahh... so that explains the new icon I noticed, topic preview. So, this reputation system thing, I get it, but wondering where I fall in the 'tier' system on here? I forget...

staff are speshal =P

[te72]

That's what my mommy tells me...

Thanks for clarifying.

[Supradavis]

On the main forum page for each topic, I noticed that there aren't any real dates above each topic/thread... just random numbers.. Is that something you're still playin' with?!

[te72]

I was wondering that myself Dave... I'm guessing that it's the post number, although that seems to be a way high number for our forum.

uhh, dunno if it's just me but everytime i click new content, nothing will show up ever, when there has obviously been new stuff posted. don't know if this is just something with my stuff or what. i've tried using several different computers, deleting cookies/whatever and doesn't seem to help at all.

I am having the same issue, Ive just been going threw each sub forum and checking new posts.

[te72]

Same here guys, figured it was just me as well. I've been doing as Clint does. I imagine that it must be an everybody thing then if all three of us are having the same issue... Got a second Mike?

[NDBoost]

Sphinx is having issues, and i havent had the time to look at it..

[te72]

Certainly isn't impacting forum usage, was just wondering if you had insight that we didn't. No worries though.
