The search is bugged, it only return results from 2013 and older....
Or maybe even 2005 and older ? Dont get any newer results anymore


Hmm the search finds this particular post, but nothing else between 2005 and the new Forum change recently.

Hi Ggekos! Thanks for this, an update to the old forum software was long overdue.
Hopefully we can customize the template more as we go forward.

OK, looks a bit different but is it functionally the same?

Hi Members

The old forum was almost 15 years old, so as the website needed to be moved to another server (a bigger one), I decided to upgrade the forum, some might not like the new version while others will enjoy more functionalities. On my part, I just discover it now, so for me, it's like "Where No Man Has Gone Before". Thanks to Ggekos, the new webmaster for his precious help, as well as the few members helping and supporting this website.
PS: Seeing that the 20000 bots are no longer here is already a good news for me, and that pics can be set to a max of 999 width normally is another one while it was not possible on the other forum, more to be discovered...

Of course, there's new features:
Friends and Foes
Notifications
User Statistics
More probably, as, it's new to me, I need to discover them like everyone...

Yep,
A lot of new feature appear with this version of the forum.

For the search engine. The indexation is still running. It has to scroll through a tremandous amount of posts and data. Wait a little bit more :)

Edit : The indexation is done, you can now fully search the posts !

Hi Enrico

Same here, but I practice it since this morning, and the new features are really good and quite useful and easy.
