    did 10c have to pay a subscription for the other board? this one is free, no?

    Doesn't look like it's free. Depends on what tier they got.
    Actually, it kind of does look like they're using the free one. When I look at the features available with the paid one, they don't seem to match up with what we're seeing here (i.e. here it looks way way worse... I guess that could just mean that they have no idea how to use the paid one yet...).
    Where did that popcorn emoticon go? hahaha

    Thank you for the link. I have saved it to my bookmarks. But I'm not a computer whizz. Do I need to download them all now? :-?

    No, just right click on the emoticon, select copy image location, and then just post it like you would an image. It's harder, obviously, but worth it IMO. image

    Ok, thanks. Let me try:

    Anyway..i saw flags..i saw i have 1 point at my profile....a best of button..whatever..my eyes hurt to read and search

    Yes, you got a positive rating on a post while we were testing that. This Flagging feature may change to a different one...we'll see. Flagging is for abusive posts. The Reactions to posts test didn't get a good reaction though.

    I assume mods can take away a 'warning' then? I checkec my profile and I don't have any warnings against me...I did see the big red box 'RKCNDY has been warned for this post'...

    so FLAG YOU to whoever flagged me...image

    The edit time has changed from one hour to one DAY..... meaning they have full control of this time limit.... Surely no limit is the best option so people can change OPs??

    The important thing is, it looks like they are reading through this thread. This gives me some hope image

    But why is it still so blazing white in here? Will they be selling sun glasses in the shop? image

    Definitely nice to see things changing (slowly....... I know there aren't very many people there taking care of everything). I never doubted they were reading this thread though and taking in the critiques. Kat's been responding to posts. :)

    After all the negativity that got poured out on their heads, I must admit I admire them for not giving up. They must be awesomely positive and patient people. image I'm not trying to suck up by the way. The design still sucks in general.

I guess that could just mean that they have no idea how to use the paid one yet...).
    I'm thinking you're probably misunderstanding what Vanilla does. Vanilla provides several services to clients:

    1) Hosting. Each and every website needs someone to host it. This requires a powerful server with access to high bandwidth so that many page viewers can be served adequately without having the website slow down.

    2) Forum backbones. Think of what Vanilla does as a skeleton of a website - it's up to a web designer, or whom ever Ten Club hires, to flesh it out and make it aesthetically pleasing.

    3) Data migration. Moving a large catalogue of user information, posts, private messages, signatures, display pictures, etc. isn't all that straight-forward.

    Since some posts have stated that they've seen "Hosted by Vanilla Forums", there is no maybe - they must be paying for Vanilla.

    Now, if you look at the plugins which Vanilla makes available to its clients, you can figure out which tier they're using:

    -Single sign-in is being utilized (ie. when you log in on the website, you log in on the forum), so it's at least the Advanced package.
    -Forum migration is being utilized (though with some issues apparently), so it's at least the Enterprise package.

    And what does this tell us? Really nothing. The Vanilla discussion is actually a moot point - what matters is whether Ten Club decided to hire a competent web designer to make this site human-friendly. My guess is they hired a web designer. I'll leave it at that.

    How about limiting signature lines? Gets a bit annoying trying to read a thread and have to read over an over and over the show dates that someone attended. Put that stuff in the profile..not signatures.

    You can change that in your settings to block signatures

    I'll keep it short and sweet... hate the new board. Liked the old one. Bring it back. Fuck this shit, please.

    You (Ten Club LLC) cannot possibly be saving enough money on this to make it worthwhile to the paying fans who use it, to make it worth it.

    The only good thing is I still have the old PMs and the ability to look up old posts. They could have REALLY fucked it up if they just started everything anew. But otherwise... horrible.

    You could get even better notifications on threads in the old forum. Ones that didn't get sent constantly with every post made, but only once, and then not again until you've visited the thread. I miss the way that posting notifications/thread subscriptions worked before soooooooo much.

    I liked the notifications on the old forum better too. Now I have so many e-mails I don't have time to go read each post, since I'm busy deleting e-mails.

    There are ways to receive notifications. Click on your avatar in the forum homepage. On the top right click edit profile. Then click on notifications on the menu list. There you can choose email/pop up or both for how you receive messages. I too was wondering why my email was being flooded. I unchecked the email box and have had not problems.

    Does this help?

    Thank you, but no. I am aware that you can turn email notifications off. But I really relied on the email notifications to follow threads I was participating in. Now my only choice is to either get millions of emails, or none. Those are two very bad options. I have tried both, and both suck.
