I tracked his IP and banned him on the router. It's likely he's using a proxy so we'll see...

It's the same software SoCalEvo is using. We're going to stay with it but i'll be making a lot of modifications to it to make it look and feel like the old norcalevo.

shiet what's up with hacking NCE? While the site was down, I was getting the shakes and couldn't stop hitting F5.

When does everyone get their custom titles back? I realize you guys are too busy with other site stuff, but I was just curious, that's all.

Oh, and one thing that's a bummer -- SMF doesn't seem to use the same smiley shortcuts like :woot:, :banghead:, etc etc. I totally got used to using those. :oops: Oh hey, that one works. :lol:

It was either this or no forum software at all. It's all about tradeoffs, so this is what we felt was best. Sorry you don't like it, but it is hard to please everyone in every way possible.

oh calm down, besides after my accident it was decided that i wasnt needed around here for help anymore since i didnt have an evo, remember?

im sure once tuned up the forum will look better, but now it looks too generic. plus light violet isnt my color either.

You can change your personalized text, which is pretty close to a custom title. You would to that by selecting Profile, then on the side of your screen, look for a section called Modify Profile, then find Forum Profile Information and click on that. From there, scroll down past your IM information and look for a box that says "Custom Title". Fill in what you want (as long as it is safe for work).

I'm just glad the forums are up and running again. I don't give a shit what it looks like. I was seriously going through withdrawals too...sweaty palms, involuntary muscle twitches, foaming at the mouth (ok, maybe not the last one) but I wasn't a happy camper at work today. I actually had to do something productive rather than surfing the boards...imagine that, lol.

Anyways, thanks for getting NCE up and running so quickly again!

Man I hope it operates like the old Norcal did. I'm not trying to be an ass or anything, but compared to the (i guess now "Old") Norcal site, the usability of the Socal site just blows. Its no contest. Using the search is about as much fun as hitting your head with a pole. I can never get the username search to work, and the layout and results that return from a search don't seem as effecient to use. Sure this may load better, but overall thats negated by poor user interface IMO. I've already noticed the "quote" function works intermitantly, although maybe thats because this was thrown up temporarily so fast.

Bottom line is if you do keep using the Socal software, PLEASE make the usability better, maybe take the best features of the old Norcal (usability) and the new software (loading?) and combine them.

TIA

You type in * in the search box when you search for a username. It means search all posts for that username.

The quote function is slow because the server is overloaded right now with all the processes i'm running. As soon as I clear the logs you wont even see that pop-up come up when you quote.

There isn't a custom title input field on the Forum Profile Information page.

Also, how come some avatars (like mine) are getting stretched?

Good to be back. Gr8 job admins on the recovery process. No regrets on the software being changed, just have to get used to it. I really don't care what software you use, just have the one where we can be an Evo community and where Hackers feel powerless.

You type in * in the search box when you search for a username. It means search all posts for that username.


Ya I tried that, doesnt work for me. Im talking about when you goto "advanced search" btw. In the old norcal, you used to just be able to type in a name, thats it. And you would get search results. Now If I do that I get "An Error Has Occurred! Did you forget to put something to search for?". Same thing comes up, if I do, say *Ev0ll or EV0ll* or * EV0ll, etc.

So hows that suppsosed to work?

What i mean is you put * in the "Search For" field if you're searching for a certain user name. Then you fill in by "By User" with the name you're searching for. * means all. So what you're telling the search engine is search for ALL posts by this USERNAME. It's vice versa if you're searching for a certain topic by any users.

Or you can go to the users profile and view all their posts by clicking on a link.

OK, ya I tried that as well, and the only results I get are posts where I actually used "*" in them. :) Maybe the "search for" box isn't recognizing the value or command of the asterisk? I tried it with quotes and w/out quotes around the asterisk btw.

Thanks for the feedback! I am not sure why the avatar and sig options are not working for you as they are certainly working for me. I will look into it and see what results I can dig up.

Home button is a known issue and we've been reminded of this a few times now.
