Hi all



Welcome to the web's newest Current Events, Culture and Politics forum! I've only had a few hours to put in to it so far, but thanks to the excellent vbulletin software I think we have something broadly usable to kick off with.

For the most part, I hope it'll feel pretty familiar. Just a few new bits - an 'Acceptable Use Policy' not rules (Check it out here), a nice bright zingy colour scheme, a sidebar with your avatar and some stats, some fresh smilies and a new culture forum. There's more in the pipeline too. vbulletin is amazing!

There will be bugs aplenty, I'm sure, so I'd really appreciate it if you could use this thread to tell me about them. Your thoughts, comments, suggestions, likes, dislikes, nags, moans, complaints and compliments are most welcome too, and in fact, eagerly anticipated.

Here's to many years happy posting.

Best,
Admin

Jeezus!

I'll talk with Neko/Zaicho. But my vote would be for 'No'. Not conducive to good debate, you see.

Unless you want to make that argument and I am willing to listen...

i knew that was going to be your first question LN

gilles and zichao will need to make a decision and get back to you. i'm taking a backseat on the modding, for the most part, so it's really up to them.
