WARNING!!!!!!

[Dom Waghorn]

OK, today we're upgrading our boards to a new version of UBB. The boards will be down for an hour or so from about 1:15pm.

Sorry - but I'm sure it will be worth it.

Hey, you're not the only one moaning - Susie is having a fit over not having her flashing stars.

Basically, the stars and the status levels are hacks for UBB and don't even come with this new version. Stupid, huh.

You need to be *really nice* to Ken (tell him he has a nice arse) and he'll get the stars back. Hopefully.

[BARTONIOUS]

Use the mouse you lazy fuck!! <IMG alt="image" SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0">

noooo, u dont geddit! it's tooo sloww to use the mouse, which is why i'll never EVER use those "instant greamlins" (who the fuck IS graem, and why did they make small versions of him!?), and i'll only use the instant UBB tags for stuff that's complex, like lists and quotes.

but when it comes to "post reply" thing, i want to be able to get to it quick quick QUICKK, not have to move my mouse, which is slow, inaccurate and awkward at the best of times.

*seethes with anger*

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE ????????!!!!!!!!!!

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

everyone has way too many stars and it just doesnt look as nice. phuuuurrrrleeeaaassseee change it back!!!!! <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0"> <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0"> <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0"> <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0">

lol, bring back the flashing stars, and demote us all (well, give us less stars - the same as we used to have). the way it is at the mo, evryone has sooooo many stars that even newbies look like mega posters would have done under the old scheme. so please, pretty please change it back <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0">

[Man Of Kent]

Dom, was this a drunken bet?


Actually I dunno what those miserable bastards are talking about, looks okay to me.

Except for one thing...my profile shows me as a fast newbie...NEWBIE? Get it sorted or I'll send the boys round...

[Baby Bio]

yeah, my thing also says im a fast newbie, and how come the picture doesnt work?

sorry if it sounds like im pestering u!

Dom:
GFM now has her own status

i do?! cool! nerrrrrrrr to you turtle <IMG alt="image" SRC="tongue.gif" border="0"> im yet to discover it, but im sure to gloat about it even more when i do!

(took me a while to figure out who "blech" might be)... im gonna have to read the rest of this thread now, im still sooooooo not used to this new layout!

and frankly, still quite scared.

[Dan the Man]

Its all gone fucking sideways! I was working my way up nicely to Insane status. No i don't no what the hell i am! I prefer the old skool style boards.

[Girl-From-Mars]

i'm less scared now.

just in case anyone was worrying about my sanity and my proximity to the tamar bridge <IMG alt="image" SRC="wink.gif" border="0"> <IMG alt="image" SRC="tongue.gif" border="0">

[Snow White]

That's good. I was getting all worried, even if no one else was.

Just think, in a couple of months we'll be talking about how "we remember back in the days of the old boards when..." and telling newbies that "smilies weren't always this easy y'know"

[stellar]

*is freaked*

this is very impressive! but I haven't worked out who I am or what these Graemlin things are yet <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0"> and I get to click pretty buttons to do things HTML, apparently <IMG alt="image" SRC="confused.gif" border="0">
