vBulletin Message
ADMINISTRATOR: You MUST revert your modifyoptions template.

And no way to change my avatar...what does this mean?

it means that chowlett is not alone. you two are apparently the only people who get this message

try to not use cookies(see the control panel)

It seems to be fine now, even with the cookies, and now I have my avatar up and running

I love the look of the new forum but the additional speed overhead is too high a cost to pay. Its more than doubled the time it takes to draw a page on my 56.6 connection. Is there a way for individual users to turn off display of avatars, ratings, you've posted in this thread tags etc at the server so that only the necessary text is transmitted?

yay, mark put the old smilies back :b

Grumbold, you can turn off the avatars in the control panel.

Actually, there's an option to turn ALL avatars off (I use it too, I liked them this afternoon when I was at Uni but once at home, with a much slower connection, I changed my mind )

we havent set any limits yet

MarkG: I don't believe the forum was doing this before, but the thread titles aren't "wrapping," so if a very long title is posted, instead of wrapping to take two lines, it extends the horizontal width of the page to unreadable levels to fit it all on one page. Examine the S&D forum (going back 20 days) , for instance:

S&D Forum

The thread with the title "Dip 23, Colonial Diplomacy Ends in 3 Way Draw Between Holland, Japan, and France" makes the thread showing screen far too long. Isn't there a way to turn this back on?

Hey,

This upgraded version takes forever to "work with" = downloading pages, posting and changing to different threads. Okey I know my computer aint that good and my connection maybe isn't the best (although okey). I never had any problems before with the old version. So tell me, is it supposeto be like this in the future?
If thats so I'm not going to be around more than necersarily (like posting turns and PBEM connected), and I really enjoy being here.
