I have now installed vBulletin 1.1.2 onto the server here. This is the latest version of the discussion software, and you guys are the first people to be trying it in an active board. It has not been publically released, so you should feel priviledged

Anyway, new features:
  • Printer friendly view - cuts out graphics and fancy things. Look for the link at the top of each thread.
  • Emails kept more secure - you cannot actually view each other's email now. You use a form to send an email.
  • Invisible mode - hide yourself on the 'who's online' list. This option is now separate from the 'hide email' option.
  • Member list - look for the link at the top
  • Lots more small superficial things, and many more things to make my job as admin easier


As some of you have already noticed, I have finally sorted out the post counts in the Chit Chat forum. No more posts in the forum will be added to your totals, and existing posts have been uncounted. This affects some of you more than others

Anyway, that's it from me for now.
