Check all the cool neat stuff no one probably cares about anymore considering the site is deader than a fucking doornail.

Huh. this place is still up even, I was surprised.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I've always intended on keeping the place. Summer was just extremely busy at work, so I had very little time to actually do anything with it.

But now, I did... so I went ahead. FFCC will follow suit, I just need to get it's custom stuff re-coded.

I'll compile a list of new stuff and stuff removed later. Still largely working on setting everything up properly.

[Ryan]

Oh, also, if your passwords do not work, let me know. They should have converted over to the new software as well.

The Removed stuff list:

1. Blogs and Albums
- I don't have licenses for these.
- No one used them.
- I do intend on bringing them back, so if you DID use them, I'll make sure to convert that data over.

2. Shoutbox
- Shoutboxes are terrible, terrible pieces of software.
- So it's been replaced by the Chat, which is much better.

The new stuff list:

1. New Profiles
- Complete with background images.
- And Status Updates

2. Reputation
- It's now replaced by the Like This button.
- If you want the old Positive / Negative system back, let me know. Consensus wins.

3. New skin.
- It's teh seks.

4. New post editor.
- If you're typing a really long post, it will automatically save it in case your browser crashes or something.

5. Topic Tags
- You can now tag topics for easier searching.

6. Improved Facebook Integration
- If you had your old account linked to Facebook, that info is lost now. You'll need to relink.
- HOWEVER, you can now do the following: Import your Facebook status to the board and vice versa, Import your Facebook Profile Photo, Login by clicking the little Facebook icon.

7. Twitter Integration
- You can also link your account with Twitter, which will do every the Facebook Connect can do plus, it will import the background image you use there onto your profile here.

8. Live Chat
- As mentioned, the Chat has replaced the Shoutbox. You can start private chats, ignore people, kick people (staff), ban people (staff), etc.
- It's a legitmate Live Chat.

9. Alex a.k.a. Lystmaler a.k.a. Lard a.k.a. Dumb Fuck is still banned.
- I made it a point to map his special group to the new "Banned" group during the conversion.

10. Private Messages
- You can now invite multiple people into a single private message.
- They are now threaded as well, to make them look similar to a topic.

11. You can now browse via a mobile phone. Which i'm using right now.

And a whole lot more stuff.

It's about fucking time you pulled this shit off. Especially since you've been talking about doing it for a fuck ton of time. Let's go 90's retro on this bitch and "turn this mother out" ! ( expects to get a ton of shit for what was said at the end :S ).
