    Welcome back :]
    It'll be ready as soon as I publish V1.0.1.0, either later today or tomorrow. I want to fix one or two semi-critical bugs that have popped up.

    On second thought, maybe wait a week or so to see if any bugs come up (I think I've just found one). I also might make some small cosmetic changes.

    Me too. *Spooooky!* I live in Brisbane, if you're interested. Which you're probably not. I'll stop being all creepy and stalkerish now.

    Oh, by the way - I'll be putting your name in the credits of my mod when its done, under 'thanks for porting advice' kinda thing. You okay with that?

    I just saw your edit.

    It would be possible then, eh? So, basically the result would end up in mods being available, but it would end up creating much work for the user's side? Or would this create much more work for you? I mean, I myself wouldn't mind going through such details, I just don't really know exactly what I'm supposed to be doing.

    Hmmm.. Well, to be honest, I haven't used very many forums outside of this one. There are a lot of benefits I'm sure, to upgrading or switching. I like some of the features we have that other forums don't seem to, though, like Visitor Messages and the Forum Archive.

    MSPAForum uses VBulletin 4.0.5, and it doesn't seem bad, but no VMs or User Albums there (I assume they might be just turned off due to the sheer size of the forum). It has one feature that I *really* like where it automatically replaces someone's sig if it's over 80px in height :mahin:

    I investigated IPBoard, it looks interesting, shiny. The "Official Board" has some kind of user upload feature (IP.Downloads) that would be awesome for mods, but it costs 50 bucks extra. I see "Social media networks" like facebook-linking features but I might die if the forum ever comes to that. Hopefully that is an optional feature.
    Oh, I'm looking through the full feature list. Customizable profile background images? That sounds nifty. Inline popup notifications? Hmm, could be nice, hopefully not as invasive as our current "HEY YOU GOT A PRIVATE MESSAGE" popup (it commandeers focus from whatever else I was doing if the tab was open).
    I'm liking some of these features. As long as VMs can carry over (And maybe a suave dark brown forum skin..? :chin:), I think I'd be happy with the change.

    Maybe you could make a topic in Forum Suggestions and see what the community at large thinks?

    Sure thing! Correct me if your email is not on the Tribute site, though. I believe yours is right under Welse's email.

    I have been noticing an unusually high volume of spambots getting through these past few days

    Hey andwhy, can you see if you can do anything with the file I posted in this thread for the DS? I can't wait to see if hacking is possible! :)

    I've already said they need to post their maps as a playable mod, I just figured this could save a bit of legwork, otherwise it might be a bit hard to tell which event in someone's area is meant to be the 'first' one.
