I already fucked up. I thought I put this in the General Topics thread. Anyways, hopefully they get this shit straight so I can follow my responses. Otherwise you got to dig through too much shit.

#metoo. How do I see my posts through my profile like you could before? I’ve got no way of sitting through to see my posts to follow. Thanks.

I like the old board. This blue tint makes the board look dark. Even the pictures look darker.

It's the default look of Simple Machines Forum (SMF), Ron hasn't even customized it yet or changed appearance! :D

Looking forward to seeing What Ron will do with it.

Ron is working on getting all the bugs out, he's holed up on the case with some store bought, off brand, orange chicken and a large diet coke from 7-11 right now.

All the new forum topics are going to be merged here so Ron can see all the feedback from everyone. I agree with the others here about the iconic yellow forum setup.

Generic indeed :D

That's because it's the default setting.


I used SMF on one of my boards as well back in the day (and many other forumowners who used SMF didn't have the energy to change the look),
so there are thousands of forums that look just like this.

I am just curious how Ron will make it feel more "Getbiggery" :D


Maybe a Black/Red Layout?

Not sure, but will bring that back soon once some minor errors are fixed, and I can start tweaking things.

Thanks for the upgrade.

YELLOW!!!!???  ??? <---- This is the only YELLOW that I see!

Otherwise I see a bright white, clean, crisp, page with clear black fonts.

Looks GREAT!!! But what the hell am I doing wrong?

RON, Is this an automatic upgrade ... or does a computer geek  have to seat at a computer for hours on end to re-write every line of the so-called SCRIPT?

I thing he's doing a great job though?

What does he charge for doing this kind of work?

And does it require a large amount of brain power?

Thanks, Ron!

PS... It looks like one pr more of the Strip hotels is/are going to make an attempt to open up on or about May 15.

I personally think that's too damn early!

And you’re a LOT 2 MUCH OF A WORTHLESS ASSHOLE.

With regard to your “relationship “ with sleezerman, I know two people who spend / spent plenty of time behind those doors with him. Now, just so you know - he just called you a dumb, wannabe,  “N” . He does not do so consistently- at least that is the info I wa# told.

We need the same background colours guys. It doesn't feel the same otherwise.

Once we get the Youtube button back, we'll be set. Also I noticed the Simple Machines build page also has options to share Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram posts/pics/videos inline. It would be awesome if those were added, but we only really need the Youtube button back.

Also, this new color scheme is pretty good. I do have to admit strangely the yellow was a bit softer on the eyes. I wouldn't think that to be true, but it is. Just one of those strange things you notice after being on tons of forums.

Please do not use the black/red layout, Ron.  Awful on the eyes.

This is the usual, but yes, I like the light yellow and other features, etc - but first, gotta get the correct DNS, etc with this - hard drive was updated too, two types, extra storage, with 7 million posts, etc - was close to capacity. 

Once it is stabalized, can play with things.

And yes, I am craving some Orange Chicken.... maybe tonight - otherwise, it will be BJ's Brewery Pizza and Grill, or Stonefire Grill .... depending on family (I can get outvoted)

I like the classic look of yellow, and the original feel, which will come back.  BUT - there will be other themes, so you can choose which one you like for more modern, or more hardcore, whatever.

Right now, we are just working to make sure everything is stabalized among other things
