this board

I guessed I missed another switch-over. My old bookmark doesn't work, so I got here via the OOTP site. I wouldn't care, but when I tried to follow a link to a thread, the Germans yelled at me about the page missing or something. Is this a Netscape problem?

Scott Vibert · 06-17-2002, 10:58 AM

Nope the previously posted links to threads won't work with the new board.

MizzouRah · 06-17-2002, 11:02 AM

Ahhhh!! Did I miss the post about ootp going to a new message board?

I personally liked the other one better!

It looks pretty good to me, I guess. But what time zone is this thing operating in?

Ah, I see. Shoulda looked around more before posting. GMT. That's convenient.

Hey I just noticed two things:

1) I'm back in the Hall of Fame..

2) I lost some posts... I guess all those posts I deleted no longer count, or the ones that were in the OOTP4 Beta Forum no longer count...

Another nice perk... I can block all the avatars from showing up if I don't want them... that should help those on dial ups get into threads faster... and there are a couple of "themes" to choose from... although I think the default may be the better of the two choices at this point.

I sort of got used to board-swapping sometime back.

Sort of rolls of my back like water off a duck's back now.

I like it, but I sort of like the last one better; I didnt like the second to last one at all and really liked the third to last one!!

Get the idea??

OK Fritz, jump in here with some wit now!!

this board is just a complete ripoff of a board I created the other day...

Kezzek · 06-17-2002, 02:14 PM

So far, I'm liking this much better than the previous board.

Haven't really gotten into the user features to mess around yet though.

Night2000 · 06-17-2002, 02:39 PM

So begins another board,

in the quest for the perfect board

Kezzek · 06-17-2002, 02:52 PM

Ok, the "take you to the first new post in a thread" icon has totally sold me!

Wooo-ha!

Hey! STOP CHANGING THE MESSAGEBOARD SOFTWARE!

Shorty · 06-17-2002, 05:44 PM

Dargone · 06-17-2002, 06:14 PM
