Upgrade of forum Software

Ok guys, we have upgraded to the new version of forum software. I'll be tweeking a few things over the next few days.

Some of the better points of this upgrade are:

* Optional UBB™ Accelerator for enhanced efficiency & speed. (This is the main reason I upgrade. It should help reduce the bandwidth we are using)

* Ability to post without cookies (some functions still require).

Let me know if you find any bugs.

Fred

PS, yes, I have to reimplement some of the features I had in hear previously...

PS the General discussion area is giving me some grief. Please hold on as I try to fix it..

Fred,

Is that why it isn't even showing up on my list of forums?

It sort of works, but some parts aren't working correctly. I've just "disabled" it unti I get things running again. I have to leave now, so hopefully later tonight or tomorrow morning they will be back up...

Fred

Hmmm, thought it was kinda quiet around here....

Hey you know, I think I like it this way. Just leave it turned off Fred.

Nooooooooo!!!!!! My favorite part!

Ah c'mon mickey, just think of all the books you could have written by now if there were no idiots to argue with.

i agree with minemapper AND Mickey. on one hand it is nice to be able to chat with some of the most intelligent and interesting people i know. (ok, the only intelligent and interestin people i know). on the other hand if it is not there i can finally get on with my life

i did have a sort of life before i found this delightful dump last week.
now if i can jus find my way back to it,
it and all that work that's still undone

Um, can't get to the home page (or the contact page for that matter).

I'm coming up with something called www.superkay.com when I try to enter the url www.tdiclub.com

Don't know if it's a weird routing problem on my end. But I thought I'd try to let you know

I don't agree with Mickey and garrettp very often, but I have to agree 100% this time.

That's quite a selfish attitude. It's kind of like someone who hates K-Mart, and instead of just never shopping there, bombs the stores to try to get them to go out of business so NO ONE ELSE can shop there... quite unfair & irrational.

Used to get the news faster than the news. Come back Misc section. I'll try not to be rude to Mickey, even.

amen & waiting

Perhaps we will need to spin off a more political section one day. Perhaps on a different server....

Anyways, the section is back up guys. Report any problems and have a good day.

Cheers,

Fred
