Poll: XenForo

[ThundyCat]

New forum software coming soon.

 

[ThundyCat]

no ****ing way!!!

Does it come in black?!

Maybe.

 

[ThundyCat]

the big wipe mk2 incoming

Not sure how members will feel about having a zero postcount again.

Is this new facelift happening today?

No.

 

[ThundyCat]

So I get to keep my ePenis?

Do you have one then?

 

[ThundyCat]

Will existing forum data be transferred over?

Yup.

 

[ThundyCat]

Can I have my 'Because Racecar' accolade back after the switch if I stop moaning about the new software?

Nah you will be banned after the migration.

 

[ThundyCat]

That looks ghastly, it's just for mobiles/tablets right? :O

No just for your account.

 

[ThundyCat]

I might make everyone Dons for 24hrs just before downtime.

 

[ThundyCat]

The original smilies have been brought over as the XenForo ones were just ghastly!

Precocious little scamp aint i

May have to change your name to 'usernote'

 

[ThundyCat]

It's coming together very nicely.

 

[ThundyCat]

Not much done recently due to the Christmas break but the image below shows the current thread view.

 

[ThundyCat]

In Xenforo not licensed for Portugal or something?

Can't tell if I am being trolled or not

Clicky

 

[ThundyCat]

I can't wait for the GD hate.

 

[ThundyCat]

It's just a button on a forum. It amazes me so many people get in such a tiz over it

It's comical.

Reminds of when we added the new avatars and half of GD threw their toys out of their prams for at least a week.

 

[ThundyCat]

People who aren't going to post a well thought out post, won't do that regardless of the availability of absence of a like button. They are two very different demographics.

I personally think a like button is a good way to get visibility of quality posts where otherwise they wouldn't be recognised.

I'm really not fussed, if people don't like the function then don't use it.

 

[ThundyCat]

Last time we were asked, most people didnt want it. Same this time round. If you guys arent fussed, why add it at all?

Well because I don't work for OcUK and it's not my call.

Whens the new forum going live?

Within the next two weeks.

 

[ThundyCat]

Do we have a go-live date yet?

Comes before Tuesday but after Sunday.

 

[ThundyCat]

I have an avatar? I suppose I must have. I've never looked at them. What's ironic about it?

EDIT: Ah, I see it now. I've been given an appointed avatar. Presumably it happened some time in 2016, since that's the year on it, but I knew nothing about it.

[ThundyCat]

Good job getting it done on time.

Couple of last minute tweaks to be done, it needs to be right.

 

[ThundyCat]

^^ I knew he was trollin

Had you said 2000 or something it would have been more believable. To be honest I am starting to think you guys might be trolling us with the XenForo also. Soon it will be April 1st

Nah Xenoforo is happening, just some last minute tinkering going on.
