Hey, guys! I'm Bob the new server administrator here, I'll be handling the nerdy behind the scenes stuff.
As you may have noticed, the software on the forum has been upgraded to the latest new version. A few things are in slightly different places, but it's the same software as before. There is a bunch of awesome new stuff here I wanted to make sure you were aware of:
Absolutely nothing should have been lost during the upgrade. All of your threads, posts, private messages and blog posts should still be here. The only thing that should have been reset is your "mood" which you'll have to set again. Every change here was designed to be an improvement - please let us know if something seems like a step backwards.
- The site should be much much faster now. No more twiddling your thumbs waiting for the page to load, or the site going down all the time.
- There's a new live chat feature that lets you send and receive messages from other Stripper Web users without having to keep a separate window open. If you're logged in, you should see the new chat system in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. If you don't want to be in the chat, click the "xx People Here" button, click the gear icon then "Turn Off".
- There's a new mobile version of the site accessible from your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch or Android phone/tablet, with a dedicated app you can install. The app can alert you when you receive a new private message, one of your posts gets a reply, and more. It also lets you browse the forum much much more quickly even on a slow wireless connection. Just load up the site in your phone/tablet's browser, and you'll get a message with a link to install it. There are two versions, one free and one for $1.99. We don't make anything off the paid version, it just goes to the people who maintain the mobile forum system.
- Even if you aren't using the site with the ForumRunner app, the new theme is much better suited towards tablets and phones.
- There's a new message editing system that lets you do fancier formatting, fonts, colors and the like. It also auto-saves what you're typing, so if your browser crashes half way through an epic post, it'll still be there when you come back.
- Better profile customization, private message organization and loads of tiny improvements all over.
- Your Private Message mailbox is bigger! Now all users have room for 500 messages in your PM folders.
I'm still fixing a few cosmetic issues, but I know the site was down for quite a while today during the upgrade so I thought I'd turn it back on as soon as it was usable again. If you see anything broken or missing, please reply here and I'll have a look!
