Thomas Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Jeffry convinced me to update the site, hoping to improve the speed. Also, our host suggested updating our software because of suspicious activity, so it seemed like a good time. I guess it's been a while. The newest version is different and might take some getting used to. There seems to be an autosave feature, so that's nice. Some of you will inevitably hate it, while others will like it -- not sure what to say other than such is life. The new theming system is apparently different than the old one, so it'll be a little while before we get our custom one back up. I hope this actually works, because it turns out updating isn't very much fun. :) 7 Quote Link to comment

kaoss Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 As an admin of another forum, I hear you on the updating sucks! Great job and keep it up. Quote Link to comment
WagDatto Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Does this sweet new forum update mean we can finally get rid of some of the stickied topics? Or move them into their own "STICKY" folder?! In other news, content of Ratsun is the same, the forum it's posted on doesn't matter to me. Hope it's a smooth transition. Quote Link to comment
crackerjack69 Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 I hate change/newness ollz, I drive cars from the 70's. I'm gonna have a look around and ley it grow on me. The coolest thing is: I can have a look around. So I don't give a whoot if you changed it to pink zebra stripes,, as long as the site works. Thank you Thomas Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 I hate change .... but the only way I've found to adjust to it is to embrace it. The more you use it the easier it is. Quote Link to comment
DottiBlue Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Only problem I see is the old site had a mobile web view. That was awsome since I'm always on the site on my phone. Any way to bring that feature back? Quote Link to comment
