The MEC forums and website will be down today in order to perform some routine maintenance as well as a forum upgrade. Depending on whether or not any issues arise, this may last for a few hours. We intend to have the site and forums back up in full force on Saturday.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

New vB is ugly.

Freek:

It looks the same as the old 3.6 :P

Krv:

Yea, but the "Thanks" thing is pointless, the bookmarks are useless (considering just about every browser in existence has a bookmark function), tags are silly, and you haven't coloured in the quick reply or reply boxes yet, so they look ugly too.

Aragorn{Strider}:

Lol. I thank you for this useful post.

You forgot to mention the new user profile, clans feature (still working on that, mind you), friends feature, profile messages, profile colour/font/background customisation, clan/user galleries, attachments opening in lightboxes, and thread tags (different from search tags, thread tags are something like [BfME1]Need help with Mordor.

And these bookmarks are services that allow you to SHARE bookmarks, rather then keeping them to yourself :)

I'm getting to colouring the editors soon, don't worry :P

Aragorn{Strider}:

The profiles look good. I think the Thanks things will be used by noobs if they dont know something. Did you make the upgrades yourself?

Freek:

No, I'm not a programmer :P I merely downloaded the upgrades and incorporated them into our existing design (which is more work then you think)

Aragorn{Strider}:

the incorporated part must have been hard because its the only step i dont completely undertand.
