Hey all. Your friendly admin here.
As you all should know by now, we technically have "moved" to the new message board hosted on Forumer. However, I recently discovered the beauty of proboard forum hacks. As such, this forum isn't going anywhere and, in fact, may become more popular over the other due to it.
Here's a list of current hacks I've added to the board:
Bigger Avatar sizes
Avatars can now be up to 200x200. Note that while you're uploading them it will still say 100x100 for max. Ignore that. It'll auto resize them on the board pages after you upload it.
Imageshack uploader on edit profile
Right above where can post your link to the avatar there's a link to upload your image to imageshack.
Rank Titles for Everyone
Mods and admins can now see their rankings like everyone else.
Rank Level Up Bar
There's now a little bar that shows you how many posts you have left before you reach the next rank.
RPG Stats
Everyone has RPG stats now. I improved the code for this hack myself so that people with post counts of 1000 or higher can still see their stats (before it'd show up as 0).
Dice
Use [dice=number ] without the space to roll a die. Can also do number+number.
[dice=6] [dice=5+5]
Blink
[blink]Hey look, you can cause blinking text.[/blink] Use [ blink ]message[ / blink] without the spaces. Only use one per message or else it causes things to go haywire.
Spoilers
A spoiler tag has been added. [ spoiler]text here[/spoiler ] without the spaces.
Wikipedia
[ [ name of wiki article ] ] without the space will convert it into a link to the said wiki article. For example [ [ wikipedia ] ] without the space becomes [[Wikipedia]]. You can also add a |Title of Article to change it. [ [ wikipedia|THE BEST WIKI EVER ] ] without the space becomes [[wikipedia|THE BEST WIKI EVER]].
Google
Use [google ]what to search on google[/google ] without the space to create a link to google to search for what you put inbetween the tag. For example: [google]Iyouboushi[/google]
In addition to forum hacks, I've created an archive forum (the Graveyard) and closed/moved a ton of threads to it. There's also a brand new forum called "Spartans Only" in which every post must be 300 characters long. Up for a challenge? Geemer is the mod of that forum.
To go along with the fact that everyone can now use ranks, I went ahead and added some new ranks to the list. Hooray!
And last, but not least, I added a new board skin that mimicks the new Icy Internet forum skin. Use it if you want something bright and new folder icons.
That's all for now.[rand=6597811038473446778397886540155317081681414389457760449158247242]
