A few of the features we used to have were necessarily lost because of the scale of the upgrade - but they'll come back.

Including gold rep.

The fact that they wanted to use it for something that we hadn't intended doesn't mean we should try to stop them. It does mean that it wasn't used as a reward for helpers, but it also wasn't hurting the forums in any way.

I am considering leaving rep in the game and introducing a parallel 'brownie points' system to serve as rewards for helpers. Presumably those users who are interested in rep as a measure of social popularity will not be interested in being seen as goody goody helpers. Details still to be worked out though.
More like, even Jumb was a gold member and Minai wasn't.

Lies. I remember the summer of 04/05 well, and all that transpired.

Re: Forum upgrade at midnight tonight

Theres some problem with creating a new profile. The boxes u gotta fill in dont have any description as to what u gotta write in em. Just blank white boxes, presumably where u gotta enter first name, last name, high school, etc.

I am sure I don't need to say this, but if this code gets abused it'll go away.

No girls with tubs or cups etc. Do not abuse!
