Major Upgrade in Progress

Please excuse the mess. Things like the arcade and quizzes will return very soon. Petz are gone for a wee bit.

Smilies are gone for a bit - there was a bug making every letter turn into a smilie.

I cleared out the getting around forums because things have changed radically.

If you have javascript errors, REFRESH. It's the old code in your cache not working with the new code on the server.

Amy

Re Major Upgrade in Progress

The arcade is back and quizzes are back to be taken. You still can't create them. Smilies are on their way back. It will take some time before I can get them all working again.

Re Major Upgrade in Progress

FWIW, it looks like a few Mac-specific things are a bit bonkers (“true quotes” don’t seem to work).

I'm really interested in how the mac stuff works. This version uses a ton of javascript. Ick.

Re Major Upgrade in Progress

When I click "Updated posts" I get the message

Quote:
The threads below have not been updated since your last visit but still contain unread posts.
Problem is, I read all the posts in "the thread below." I even opened the thread and scrolled through it again to see if it would make the message go away. It didn't.

I'm not seeing that message anywhere. I know they did some work on marking forums read and such. This is still a beta version, the kinks will work out over time.
