sorry to be dumb..what's a rego?
Registration. Australians don't like words with more than two syllables so they're often contracted to 1 or 2 syllables - usually with "-ie" on the end but "Reggie" is already a contraction for "Reginald" so it's contracted as "rego" instead.
e.g.
registration -> rego
vegetables -> vegies
underwear -> undies
...it gets weirder in Japanese...
Transformers (Toransufoomaa) -> Torafo
Starscream (Sutaasukuriimu) -> Sutasuku
Either the spammers haven't found this new board, or the registration process blocks them a lot better than the old board did.
Saber didn't try to register 14 times. Only twice before I told him not to. Those are the two invalidated numbers. Everyone one else as of this posting is a current, active member. Still an impressive number (70 active members), considering they all registered here within just 2 weeks, from a single topic on the old board mentioning the new location.
Hey Hey, I'm in... and I like!
Thanks Griffin.:)
Erm i'm currently using Firefox and having problems with the pop-ups when someone PMs you..is there any fix to this???
Define "problems". You should know better Mr. Tester ;)Quote:

I use Firefox too but haven't had popups blocked, rather I haven't seen any notification of PMs other than the number changing at the top of screen. I also don't get email notifications about them, but I assume both are settings I have to manually set and haven't.
Figured out the problem...its pop-ups. Both paul and jaydisc are perfect testers.
Was awake this morning and didn't really see the actual fault. me bad
grrrr [benben, 2008]
In hindsight, it seems that the popups are actually JavaScript dialog boxes, not popup windows, so that might assist others in debugging.
A belated thanks for the new home Griffin! :D
A problem though:
I'm not receiving email notifications for subscribed topics and I can't find anything wrong that I'm doing? :o
Do you get notifications for subscribed threads straight away like tho old board or not? I just dont like missing out on 'important' threads like group buy info etc.
Small problems:
Is it easy to change the smilies back to the ones we had on the other board - I liked them more :P
Is it difficult to impliment a small icon for this site like you see in most browser address bars? I can create it if you give me the specs.
I'll have a look at those things you mentioned. Some are admin settings I have to have locate and see what options I have to play with. Not sure about the addressbar icon though, but I'll have a look.
I also don't get popups for PMs. I only notice them when I see a 1 New message on my Inbox.

Hope that helps.
Tober, your situation is the same:Quote:

3. Under Default Thread Subscription Mode, you can select these few options:
- Do not subscribe
- No email notification
- Instant email notification
- Daily email notification
- Weekly email notification
The board sometimes stalls on me when I'm either posting a quick reply or editting a post.
like flood controls?
As both of those functions are JavaScript/AJAX, I'd say your issue is a computer performance or network issue.Quote:

The old board [i think] had an ability to ignore a user. This board doesn't seem to have it. Could it possibly simply be disabled at an admin level?
I've also been wondering where that went! too difficult to parse a userQuote:

There are two frames
1. Buddy List
2. Ignore List
You just have to type the initial or some of the person's nick e.g. Ice and then the system will auto-find a match and you can click 'Enter' on your keyboard, followed by clicking 'Save List' button.
Person to be ignored e.g. Iceburn's posting will be ignored in all threads...
um so how do you know what your new member number is? Sorry ,this may have been asked earlier and may be simple to some, but Im just lazy to read all the thread through and through.
many ways but just to stay on this screenQuote:
