Kikizo Forum Upgrade Complete! Rejoice! - Sep 19, 2008 05:24
After months of going through all the feedback and painstakingly fixing things, this latest version of the forum introduces not only a cleaner look with no layout issues whatsoever (that we can notice), but also adds performance tweaks, and hundreds of clean-ups and functionality improvements.

The new Kikizo Forum is improved for use with Google Chrome, Opera, and Safari's editor compatibilty. IE6 is no longer tested or supported. Hell, IE8 is almost here. Overall performance seems faster when using the latest Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome browsers than it does in IE7, however we expect a boost in IE performance with the introduction of IE8. Further forum improvements will of course continue as browsers continue to evolve.

Have a look around. We're pretty confident all is in order this time, and we think the completed new forum is smoother than ever. If you agree, tell your gaming friends. Because all the forum needs now are some people to actually use it, seeing as how for some reason, there has been an extremely low conversion of users from the main Kikizo website over to the forum. Hopefully that might now change!

Please leave all feedback in this thread, and any issues that do creep in, document them here as usual. Suggestions for any other tweaks or improvements will be considered, as always.

Also use this thread for any outstanding bits and bobs like custom tag requests for any previous winners, and stuff like that.

Anyone who helped with constructive feedback in the previous threads can also now choose a custom tag if they do not already have one.

Is there anybody here who hasn't already gotten a custom tag Adam? Might as well use it as a punishment for misbehaving forumgoers.

Hi Adam
I won a monthly award back in February, if possible could you apply a custom tag for me of 'Trivia King'?

Yeah I still haven't got my custom tag either, if they are going to be given out then I would like "Big Daddy".  I did win just in case you were wondering adam.

So, as a winner we're entitled to a custom tag? If its not a lot of trouble, could I have "Necromancer"?
I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

I found a "bug" in the forums.  In some of the banners, the kikizo ones do it for example, if you click them it just opens the page in that little frame instead of a new tab or bringing the transfering the main view.  
It does it in Opera and Firefox, I haven't tried IE.

Thanks Adam for the custom tag.

And Nitro, yes I know a surprising amount about lots of things (mostly useless though), but I need lubrication to get at it properly. Quiz machines are a good source of income.

There are a couple members well Eddie_the_hated.

Well, the site has been spruced up a bit. Better than before. Good.

I'd like mine to be:

It's like boo!

Bonus points if you know where that was from.

Or if that one is too strange try:

I don't know if you guys can see this on your end but in the C&C thread I created my second post shows up in a small box next to another post as opposed to being under as usual.  Did I do something wrong?

I do see that... but I think it has to do with Killemoff.  All of his posts are janked like that. 

Joe:  I found it your source, but had to look around for it.  I didn't know it by heart.  Thus I will refrain from mentioning it and see if anyone else knows it.  BLAAARRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH.....
