In a matter of speaking it was. :) Global moderator permissions didn't get selected. I pushed the policy to all of them:

Guest: view only
All members: view/post

--- Quote ---I take full credit for staying out of SirWoogie's way as he kicked butt and took names! Serious props to him for all the work he's done - particularly when you factor in his having to wait for me to stop hemming and hawing and get off my duff to let him do his thing!

You sly dog.  :police:

I appreciate the kind words! However, let's not overlook the fact that if it hadn't been for your site and the dedication the community has shown towards this effort, I wouldn't have had anything to do! You're site is what got me into what is now my favorite hobby (and money waster!).

Props to you boyeeeee   :laugh:

datac0re:
The new forums rock! Plus I love the three themes you can choose  :D

Overall the performance seems a lot better. Keep up the good work!

sirwoogie:
To be honest, I'm pleasantly suprised at the performance. I didn't think I'd eek out this much for this machine, and this isn't even totally new technology.

New box is a 3Ghz HT P4, 1G RAM and a 120G hard drive.  Previous was a 1.7 Celeron, 512G, 40G hard drive. I've thrown gentoo and the 2.6 Con Kolivas kernel in. I optimized the Mysql and apache installations on this machine as best as currently possible.

We went from average 50% busy to 4% busy, and the forum speed has gone from average 0.6 sec generation to 0.045 sec generation. Pretty good stuff. Upgrading the forum software has helped too.

Tiger-Heli:
Many of the threads that I had "Notify of replies" selected yesterday are deselected now.  Possibly due to yesterdays changes, but not certain.

Overall, this has been a very seamless upgrade.  Thanks for all the hard work.

EDIT:  Before I normally checked notify of replies when I answered a topic.  Now I found it got hidden under additional options, so I probably didn't click it for yesterday's replies, I also noticed that it's a profile option now as well, so I updated my profile.

Thanks and sorry to bother you with my mistakes.
