SSgt Viljuri Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Let's start by poking fun at Toronto Maple Laughs. Guaranteed last-place finish, with less than 80 regular season points. Nik Hagman and Jeff Finger?They must be kidding! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSgt Viljuri Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 One slight worry though, my post count seems to indicate a loss of 2500+ posts? Where have all the flowers gone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing old GF posts are not in the current count. I've lost a couple of hundred. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I'm guessing old GF posts are not in the current count. I've lost a couple of hundred. Correct. We have pruned the GF and any posts you made there would not show up in the new post count after re-indexing. It's just fair. GF posts should count for 1/3 of normal posts anyway, at most 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GF posts should count for 1/3 of normal posts anyway, at most Ahh man, but what about all those useless recipes and pointless political mudslinging. They added so much flavor and god awful smell to the forum. Our work is cut out for us, time to start all over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Only lost 1500 posts. Haha. I'm more concerned that they opted to enable the most braindead feature that vBulletin has to offer: by default disable the quick reply box until you designate a post to quote. I've never seen a forum admin keep that for more than a week, so there's hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of a Quick Reply if you need to click first, is it Thing is, this was not an opt-in, but it's how vB has it configured by default (and recommended in fact). I'll leave this on for a little and if it gets too annoying, we'll change it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hakko Ichiu Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I miss the GF Recipe book And where is Rommel22's dog? Forever growling and showing his teeth in some Jamoomba-forsaken cyber-limbo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll leave this on for a little and if it gets too annoying, we'll change it. Define "if it gets too annoying". Do you mean: A) The feature gets annoying. Us moaning about that feature gets annoying. If it's B, you might want to flick that switch now. You should know us lot by now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
