Greetings!

The first thing that came to me when i logged in today was....[flash=]what--the--hell![/flash]

The second thing that came to my mind is...must check my email! Perhaps there's a rational explanation behind this all. It could be weather balloons, hallucinugens released in the air, mass hysteria--there must be an explanation why the forums appearance has gone topsy-turvy all of a sudden.

Then i found this in my inbox:

Hello _______________,

We would like you to know your forum ( http://iloilogamers.freeforums.org ) has just been upgraded to our v3 system. Eliminating the legacy version is a huge step in terms of performance and security for our system. By not having to support two versions, we can focus support and development on a single system.

We realize the change might be hard -- but we're here to help! If you have a specific question, or just need help finding your way around the new admin panel, please post on our support forum @ http://forum.freeforums.org/viewforum.php?f=21 . We've found that even those who loved phpbb2 quickly changed after using phpBB3 for a few days. Please let us know if you need any help!

-FreeForums.org Team
http://forum.freeforums.org


Oookay.

Now i'm not as well versed in PHBB as might be implied, but i will try to get the forums back to the level of normalcy that it had been before, or, most likely, the closest to appearance to what it had before. Many changes are afoot, but as gamers extraodinaires one and all--if we managed to survive the transition from Lotus to Celestial, from Vampire the Masquerade to Requiem, from AD&D to Dungeons and Dragons 4th ed, then surely we can take these changes in stride!

Now excuse me while i go cry in a corner (boo hoo hoo! i'm a winner! i'm not a loser!*)

Alright, so, where was I. Yeah, will try to roll for investigations some moar, and will update you with the status of the forum's appearance as soon as i find them (most notable is the fact that our front page is now missing :( ).
For the meantime, if youse guys notice some significant differences on how the freeforums.org operates now, kindly post your findings here on this thread.

[flash=]Gamers, forward![/flash]

-Grail, mod

For the meantime, the new Portal page (front page of our Forums) makes little sense to me. There is no manual sent to the forum Admins on how each box works, and they're pretty much un-customizable when compared to the previous PHBB2 versions. Please bear with us while we make sense of the new systems.

the original forum portal is mostly phbb2 hacked. i mean that it's not standard issue lay-out. had to learn some trickeries para ma manipulate ang coding so it would look like that (i.e. may chatbox, may penny-arcade comics, subforums, etc etc).

subong sa bago nga phbb3 forums, everything you see is purely unhacked codes. may subforums na gani! i.e. under L5R Main forum there are three other Subforums. Although there were subforums man before, but those had to be hacked into the system using "tricks".

Subong, for better or for worse, it's all phbb3 codes na.

Master Mark, i activate ko liwat ang first account mo gali for mod purposes. i forgots to do that last time. :oops:

I think this is my first post ever since the new image. I'm not sure. First thing I noticed is that insult to vampires, what's his name from the gayest movie based from a crappy novel writen by a sexually depraved person who "couldn't write worth ****". :twisted: The front page, I have been able to grasp now and I think I can effectively navigate through our little cyberhome with ease now. Can we do something about the logo though? I don't want anything to do with Faglight. :)

Remember kids.

Hahahaha Louie that IS the point! With the exception of our signature Crane model (who is being paid by iloilogamers.org international a hefty sum to model for us) you might notice that the above are:

Yugi-oh
Old man Omori
Pikachu
Twoilet

the things we (we here means 110 percent of iloilogamers) abhor! Abhor, i say! Hahaha! Lighten up dude, we're making ironic fun of Towilet at their expense. Faggoty soap opera meets sweet valley high meets the worst that the vampire genre can offer.

Edit add: i don't hate pikachu gale, and Kuon is actually Omori in disguise, so it's just Yugi oh and Twoilet lang gali that's the focus of my personal hate. Hate, i say!
