Not to spam, but why are the forums this way now?

Jeremy updated vBulletin from 3.0.5 to 3.5.0.

What else has changed besides the lay out?

[QUOTE=SilentScream7]What else has changed besides the lay out?[/QUOTE]

Explore yourself, heh.

On a user level, not a whole heck of a lot, just a few things here and there to make things look more aesthetically pleasing.

On an administrative level, it makes security issues a bit more stable for the time being.

I was wondering what happened.

Man, this is going to take a while to get used to.

Its really strange.

I'm liking the new Vbulletin. :)

Shut this one down before everyone dogpiles on it.

I think we need to somehow express to everyone that after one person makes a comment about a thread being against the rules, people should let the thread die. Everyone feels the need to be a hero and say how this is against the rules after 2-3 people have already done so.

It has been several times and SonorKen even went on a banning fest of these people but it doesn't change anything.

People don't seem to want to listen is the thing. They all make some attempt at pwning the threadstarter, often just coming across as dipsh[size=2]i[/size]ts in the process.

I just came to the decision that I am going to start neg repping the ones I see. Sure, it won't stop it all together but they will probably think twice before doing it again.

Better off in the Audio Arena.

Can you have neg. rep points,like -1?

[QUOTE=angusmaster]Can you have neg. rep points,like -1?[/QUOTE]
Yes, if someone neg reps you.

Well,i hope that dont happen,but i am trying to get pos. rep points,by watchin my posts.

If you continue to do that, then you probably won't get neg repped. Don;t worry about rep anyways, it doesn't matter that much really.

Just look at all his posts.....he just tries to stir things up. He's just another idiot spammer. :rolleyes:

I don't know the affect of the amount of neg reps, but if youy get 1000 positive rep points you get a star I beleive. Thats why you see people with stars under there name.

when will a official GNR thread appear i was wondering since many of the threads involving GNR are closes

[QUOTE=periculosus]when will a official GNR thread appear i was wondering since many of the threads involving GNR are closes[/QUOTE]
Never because;
1. The mods aren't making any more official threads
2. There isn't enough fans of GNR on MX
I am not sure why all the GNR threads are being closed but I am sure there is a good reason :).

but what i mean is how about i post an unofficial thread lol :-$

[QUOTE=periculosus]but what i mean is how about i post an unofficial thread lol :-$[/QUOTE]
Oic, you could probably just get a mod to change the name of the thread you have already made. I think that there is already a pretty big Guns N Roses thread though so maybe you could find that.

I don't see what is wrong with it tbh, he is advertising his prog rock band in a prog rock thread and he is hardly going to change the topic dramatically. This is a prime example of small time advertising which I think should be allowed.

Metallica_Nick is quite the spammer

Ahhh....WTF is going on? Is it going to stay like this?

[QUOTE=Schyma]Ahhh....WTF is going on? Is it going to stay like this?[/QUOTE]

I have no idea. This is so weird, but it's not too bad.

Will everyone please stop whinging, the new set up is great IMO :p.

[QUOTE=Six Foot Revolver]Will everyone please stop whinging, the new set up is great IMO :p.[/QUOTE]

I don't really like the stuff on the top. Signatures aren't bad. The Quick Reply is bad. The editing is good

I'll get used to it, no big deal :thumb:

Sorry, but you're kissing up to the wrong asses at this point in the game :p

It doesn't really matter. Eventually I'll get used to it and I'll bury my old memories of the old MX :upset:

Love you too Jom.

Spam in the report problems thread? :eek:

:confused: :confused: :confused:

help... i'm new...

how do i post a new thread?
and what the heck is a sticky?

Stickies are threads that are needed to be at the top of the page because they are important for new members or because there's no too much posting on them. Like some competitions or some write ups. So they are [B]stickied[/B] at the top of the page.

I think you have to wait 24 hours to post a new thread.
