Heh, the stuff I have to wade thru at work makes this look like ... um ... the stuff I have to wade thru at work.

I agree. Will there be a team wool jersey?

It couldn't be the new washable wool, and it would need to be men's sizes only that go down to your knees when the pockets are loaded.

I think it can be the new washable wool, because us luddites don't have to bother trying to understand that, we just know it's magic and it works.

The forum changes, we gotta try to understand and it requires thought.

No.

I have to do that at work.

I found the new stuff; it lists one person as a "contact." How did she get there?
It's all a mystery to me.
Don't think I need to join new groups.

oh lord, this was done at another site I frequent. The "reptuation" stuff was deemed a failure after a year, and social groups thing was also removed after it was discovered that no one really used it.

have fun.

I'm gonna start smoking and skipping homeroom and hanging out with the OE kids.

I had to upgrade the forum software to get the latest security patches for VBulletin. Our ISP was reporting some hacking activity that appeared to be coming from the machine that hosts the forums and forced us to immediately upgrade VBulletin.

Turns out it wasn't us, just someone spoofing using a forged IP that happened to be our IP address.

I'm still exploring all the new features - another upgrade from 3.8.x to 4.0 series of vbulletin is coming, so if you don't like the new features, just ignore them. It'll probably change even more with the move to 4.0.

Ditto.. The "reputation" stuff was just goofy, and loads of social groups were started...then abandoned within weeks.

Well in the case of this other site, people were having way too much fun with the negative reputation feature, but regardless it was all abandoned after a while.
