I know that we loved the chatbox with an archive, but what other mods do you really wish were available again? We still have the arcade. Other than that, what mods/features were actually useful for you? If I can get a list I can definitely see what I can do about finding the same mod for this upgrade, or something similar enough to where it's good enough for everyone.

What about template color preferences? Old vs. new banners? What do you think?

I'd really like to try to make everyone happy here, so please feel free to sound off about anything, even if it's not mod related.

Thanks for the feedback. I don't have any time tonight anymore to find any of these things, but I will definitely look into it when I can, which I'm betting will be this weekend.

If anyone else has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Otherwise, I guess you can't complain. =P

Likin' the new chatbox.

Hmm...maybe Thank You button, moods or something...? I dunno. Or something to more customize user profiles or something...?
Hm. Excellent work, so far, Crystal.

Aye, the thanks button would be nice. Moods, I didn't really use but I know others did.

*gives flower to Crystal* you get this today.

That reminds me, Im sure vB must have some spanky costum profile mods and such.
Heck if I had some in invisionfree Im pretty fuckign sure Crystal can do better in vb :P

That stuff was kinda nice, and perhaps we can bring the random qoute generator in!
That was nice too and I can either just find or write the code again, hell all it was was a simple array really :P

How bout it Crystal?

I'd be totally cool with another random quote generator. =)

I don't remember us having one. :/

Crystal Shards
02-25-2010, 08:04 AM
Usually it was filled with a bunch of shit about Cory the Cactus or random facts/lies about forum members. One that I really remember was, "Fritz... Step away from the whiskey."

David
02-25-2010, 08:12 AM
Ah, yeah, i think I remember it now.

Or at least I remember some forum having something like that.

Crystal Shards

It was the invisionfree one. The one with the Eli banner that I absolutely loved. I wonder if we could gank that and use it on here...

"Fritz... Step away from the whiskey."

Oh, wow...that was back in early high school, wasn't it? 0_0

...What?
This sounds fun.

Am I active enough to be in it? *blush*

KatieKat
02-25-2010, 11:21 AM
Hahaha....I think if anyone is, you are. :D

Crystal Shards
02-25-2010, 12:31 PM
We'd have to make new phrases, and see if we can even put it in there. But yeah, it did start around early high school.

Fritz
02-25-2010, 12:52 PM
I dont really remember when it started but I do remember it was on invisionfree cause I added it and I was still an admin backthen (a usefull one that is, I think).

Il see if I can find/write the code again and PM it too you so you can add it, I really dunno where to put it in vB so your on your own there :P

Oh and as for what to fill it with, Id say a quote submission thread shall do the trick just fine!

Fritz is very helpful.

WELL, I would suggest maybe something like badgers, lace wigs, cannibalism, s'mores, etc etc. :D

Fritz
02-25-2010, 01:09 PM
Heh thanks, I used to be helpfull and I still try to be every now and then but everything I can, Crystal can do 4 times better :P
Besides stuff like drinking but that doesnt count on forums :P

Anyway I just re-wrote the code, its pretty simple anyways and its on the way to the PM box ;)
Stay tuned I geuss...

Crystal Shards

Thanks to Fritz's coding skills, we have the random quote generator again. It's on the front page of the forums. You should go find it. Some of them should be familiar to the older members... =)

Fritz
02-25-2010, 02:35 PM
Hah I remember most of them :P
Even the giraffe one!

That reminds me Emmy isnt around anymore now is she?

Crystal Shards
02-25-2010, 02:35 PM
No unfortunately she doesn't come around anymore. I wish she did though; she added a friendly fun to this place.

KatieKat
02-25-2010, 10:50 PM
It's true...I miss her bunches.

Fritz
02-26-2010, 02:37 AM
I agree, so isnt anyone in contact with her anymore? :P
Force her to come back!

KatieKat
02-26-2010, 08:31 AM
I am, off and on. To be honest, though, I don't think she ever really was interested in forums in general. She was on here because a lot of our group in high school was. And it was a good way to keep in contact with Crystal when she was overseas.

Fritz
02-26-2010, 09:25 AM
Eh right so I geuss that means no :P
Got it.

KatieKat
02-26-2010, 10:54 AM
Eh, I'll give it a shot. The worst that can happen is she'll say no. :p

Edit: I gave her the new url for the forums. She's thinking about it. Hopefully, she'll ultimately come back. :D

Crystal Shards
02-26-2010, 11:33 AM
I hope she does. I mean I don't think a single person here didn't absolutely love her.

Who's Emmy? Sorry. :(

More active members = awesome anyway, so I agree with you guys, she should totally come back! :D

Fritz
02-26-2010, 12:07 PM
Emmy the moose :P
Im not sure if you were around already at that time :)

KatieKat
02-26-2010, 01:09 PM
I hope she does. I mean I don't think a single person here didn't absolutely love her.

I don't think there's a single person alive that doesn't absolutely love her. Even if they don't know it yet. :p
