Updates on the work behind the scenes:
1) Working on new sets of custom avatars. Will be available as/when I update the databases.
2) Tried to upload forum badges for the user ranks but keep getting FTP error protocol errors. The forum's vBulletin software is apparently installed in a FTP server somewhere out there which only horror himself can access. Sorry guys, have to make do with the textual ranks for now.
3) Quashing the reputation system. I took feedback from a few other vBulletin forums and like MichaelMyers reported, it causes more problems than healthy interaction between forum members.
4) Working on a brand new Post-Thanking system from today (if members find a post useful, they can thank the poster). Needs plenty of encoding/mods so this will take some time.
5) We now have 4 fully-powered all-new Moderators to assist neverending in his mod duties. So, I am back to lurking in the shadows.
Enjoy the forums, folks! Hopefully for a long time from now on.
Happy New Year, and may you all have a splendid, successful and fulfilling 2014!
