Poor Dingo.

I bet Eazy followed us back here.

I'm sorry, the only AG forum original I know was that annoying black guy.

Oh, that was him.

We only had the one, so he was pretty easy to spot.

Oh

Now I feel silly.

You ran away. As far as I'm concerned, that makes you sensible.

Nate's going to be annoyed. *Checks what thread we're in*

Never mind.

I didn't run away, I would never consciously forsake my duties as a moderator.

I just sort of... forgot.

I'm not annoyed. Just confused.

I suspect the issue is more to do with updating the themes for 4.x. He still hasn't finished the ones for 3.x yet...


(Also, I believe Abe Babe was the primary driver behind theme updating. Without her around, it's not likely to happen any time soon)

i'm gonna relaunch that shit I SWEAR

start my own fucking private army.

some day.

cue violins.

fuck i forgot that. i haven't logged on for that long. i think i was bollocksed when i chose that.

We can get STM to update the themes.

Actually, I'm supposed to be doing that.

I keep saying to myself “I could totally put together a forum skin”, but then I remember how much free time I have.

That said, would there be any interest in a mobile-friendly forum skin? Like, one that changes depending on what device you view it on?

Okay I'm on it!

Oh god.

No need to worry. He's too busy performing talk therapy sessions with bees to actually do it.

no wonder they're pissed off.

Just a barrage of Oedipus complexes, I guess.

Maybe we should ask Abe Babe to come back to help us get some new themes.

Wait. What?

I did indeed want to build my own discussion board system, but I never got further than writing a few classes. Of which I would then go back and re-write because I decided they were written incorrectly. The probability of swapping the OWF to my system is zero - and has been for years now.

It's been an incredibly long time since I discussed this with anyone though - but I floated the idea of switching to Xenforo a while back, even going so far as to import a test board. The issues preventing us from swapping right now are the lack of OWF themes for Xenforo and the absence of blogs.

As Wil touched on, my issues with vBulletin stem from the loss of actual talent and direction. I'm not going to pay for shit software.

Alcar...

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!

I contributed.

Definitely. Make one with big-ass buttons for iOS.

What are your thoughts on Vanilla? Open source, well-documented (including theme creation docs), and supports importing from old forums.


Funnily enough I think iOS styles buttons like that itself unless you specifically override it in the CSS.

Funnily enough, up unto a year or so ago, the largest Vanilla board was one I was privy to. I don't view Vanilla as being on the same scale.

Alcar...

Okay, so I finally got around to making a skin, most of it is in the link below. Yes I know, it's 9 months late or something, but enjoy. A lot of hard work has gone into it and I hope it gets used soon!

Too much Sekto here. Otherwise, it's good enough

I would possibly use that skin.

It would be better than honeybee.

Holy shit!

I love it!

I'd give it a 6.6/10. Needs more pink

That's a shame, I really tried to get across a feeling of homosexuality through the colour scheme. XD

What is homosexual?

What is shame? :3

What is boredom? Oh, I know - it's what this thread inspires in me.
