Most of the upgrade is done. You may find a couple new things, but they are pretty small. One benefit of this will be the users who were having problems on AOL, those problems may stop. I do have to get the Photo Album and Styles section of the user profiles back online still. Thanks.

Thanks. I can find us a chat room. The problem is... it wouldn't be like the one we had, so it wouldn't attract people. If I find something that we can use and is what I want... I might be able to bring something back. I am going to pretend that I never heard about this tweety mask.

Welcome back.

Very old user. Good, but old and not been here for a long time.

This user has come, gone and been gone for a long time. Let's stop bumping these introduction threads for no reason, please. Thank you.

Very soon (within the next couple of days), I will be upgrading our forum software. During this time and for some time after, there may very well be some problems and some features that stop working. In almost every case, this will be temporary. At some point, I will ask people to report problems to me, so please hold any problems that you find until that point. I really appreciate it. Will there be any new features? No, not really. I plan to keep pretty much everything we have now and then there will be a few small, new things that you may notice. Thank you.

Welcome back.

Black Dragon, But, you see... that is always the retort when the guidelines are enforced. "We're adults, we can discuss this." No, you can't. Very few people are able to maintain the respectful tone and nature that this site demands when discussing these types of subjects. This is historically proven as we have given them every chance. Being an "adult" doesn't mean that you know how. Under such a theory, an adult should be able to follow guidelines/instructions. You didn't. While I understand that there are several people who disagree my decision, it is not going to be reversed. Because of this, there is nothing to discuss and I am going to close this thread. Thank you.

Thank you for submitting the article.

I understand your point. But, these two specific topics garner a lot more arguments than the other things that I mentioned. And in these two arenas, people very rarely agree, so that is the motivation behind it. Thanks for the feedback.

You are right. But, they do qualify as General Chat.

I think that would be serious overkill. After all, discussing family, music, movies, colors, games, technology, packing, eating, cleaning, TV, clipboards, school, books, stuffed animals, glassware, electronics, walking, running, sports, housewares, shopping, stocks, crafts, furniture, houses, and others do not qualify as political or religious.

Yeah, this thread is a bit out there. Personal attacks and what have you. I don't see a reason for this one to stay open. Thanks.

Let's not turn this into a political discussion now.

I think it was rather stupid. Why do you kiss Madonna, anyway? I mean, do you want to get some incurable disease?

Not the same though. It wouldn't attract the same attention. Thanks though.
