Everyone's too busy with all of the banning...

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Last chance to get in on the jersey giveaway contest. This sunday I'm going to draw a winner, so if you want in please sign up by saturday night.

thanks

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Matty, whatever happened to the profile pic? I thought that was one of the perks with premium membership.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

You should be able to upload one

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Maybe I am not looking in the right place, but I cannot find where it is I do that in User CP. To the best of my knowledge, I don't think any other premium members have profile pics either.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Ok fixed now, in your usercp there is a option for editing your profile picture.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Thanks.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

hoo, do we really want to see a pic?(j/k)

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Ah nice, I didn't know we could put in profile pics. Cool. Matty, you going to have a profile pic browser or anything like that?

Fiancee got it for me on Amazon. I think it's at the Redskins store too. Typically, I'm not all about the black and white hats, but that one was bad ass.

I got that same shirt in Key West a couple years back! Love it and always get some good comments when worn!

Definitely get good comments while wearing the shirt...the wife got one that says "Will sell husband for chocolate" that smells like chocolate.

Congrats JoeRedskin

Any possible way to get less restrictive post and search time controls? In the gameday thread there can be more than one thing to say every 30 seconds easily, I don't usually mind waiting otherwise.. and search, sometimes if my first query isn't really what I was looking for, I have to wait a full minute to try again. Seeing as you're fairly certain VIP users won't be abusing the system/automating tasks, etc it'd be nice to have.

I'm not sure things like that can be tweaked to individual user groups. At least not without a mod. I can look into it.

I honestly don't recall myself, it's been awhile since I've really had to tap into the AdminCP

this whole 4.0 thing will definitely give a different spin though, I'll also play around and let you know what I come up with

thanks again matty

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Yeah VB 4.0 is looking pretty sweet, I'm not going to upgrade right away though. I'll wait for the initial kinks and bugs to get worked out. The publishing suite looks interesting.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Hey Matty,

Just curious about what happened to Live Topic? I thought that was a pretty nice feature.

As always Thanks for keeping this board up and running

I'm gonna guess he took it out due to site crashes, especially on gameday. I noticed that especially during the gameday threads when live topic was active the site was crashing every 5 minutes. Hasn't done that in about 2 weeks now though I think.

But of course, thanks for keeping the site up and running Matty. :)

Ah, I guess I missed the crashing part, lucky me

Thanks Dynamite

Definitely, you know that they're rolling out the new core across the releases? I can only imagine what that will do to mods/plugins; will definitely hold out as well, and I hope that the publishing suite will do a better job than our custom solutions.

Honestly this site should not have gone down either way. I don't know what it's hosted on but for the money he should have a package that can handle that load. The gameday load here is the avg anytime but late night load on a server I run and it's never been an issue to run LiveTopic. With some optimization, which it appears that he's already done some, it shouldn't be an issue to enable again.

yeah I'm guessing the mods and plugins are all going to need serious updating which is another reason why I'm waiting

The server issues are resolved now, I found out the concurrent connections were set way too low so it was a simple fix in the end

Awesome, glad to hear.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

I have VIP under my name so does that mean I have a premium membership because I really cannot remember the last time I donated any money? If it does mean I have a premium membership is there any way to add a pop up spell chek?

Here's one for posting:

haven't looked into the search, I can wait for that

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

I'd like to become a premium member for $25. That's a great deal, and a good way for me to vent my frustrations. For example, I've been critical of the offensive line for the last couple of years and a super fan of the "Get Rid of Portis" club.

Re: Announcing premium membership!
 

Premium members (VIP's) can now create polls, please use this feature wisely though.

Thanks

Taking bets on how long this feature will last before being taken away due to newbies abusing it.

Not very long. I've been hesitant on asking the mods if my thread that I was thinking about starting, called Polls: Too Pollsy? w/ poll would be too much, now it appears I don't have to ask :devil:.
