Hello everybody

we have updated the Forum to version 2.0.4.

Everything seems to have been updated correctly and the forum should be back to normal now.

The forum software phpBB is now updated to the latest version which is 2.0.4.
Several bugs have been fixed (remember the incorrect URL with the X²BarrelRecoil.avi file? fixed!)
Finally login problems for Opera users are solved now (they got a white page, now there is this new redirect page which just works fine)

Things I added:
- Only 10 Smilies per post are allowed.

- You can no longer rate postings in locked topics

- you can see how many points a user got in the rating system via his/her profile

- the spelling mistake on the english ranks is corrected

BTW a few worthwhile upgrades. :)

Additional update:

the plain release of phpBB 2.0.4 contained some bugs that have been corrected now.

If you received "invalid_session" error messages when posting to the forum and are using AOL the problem should be fixed now.

You continue to impress the empire with your running of this forum burnit.

If your feeling like doing a bit more in the none to distant future then i reccomend these.


Here's a addition for stevemill, so he can happily talk to himself :wink:

Well... obviously for Mozilla users the rating link still falls away for posts of certain persons. I have no why I can rate one, and can't rate the other... the link is too far to the right for me so I can't see or click. But if I really want to rate someone whose link is out of sight, I just start IE :) :roll: And scrolling gets very jerky at the bottom of a page... some minor issues, the rest is fine :)
