    How are you able to have a new avatar while others havent been able to for the longest time?
    Admins have always had the ability to change their avatars on a whim.

    What you're thinking of us our customized system that isn't actually tied in to avatars. What it's closer to would be seperate accounts tied to a main login. Hence why post counts, inboxes, signatures, and so on don't carry over between your various characters when you switch "avatars". For the avatar itself, that can be changed by admins and moderators can modify their own avatars. Hence why ours are all unique.

    They are migrating that post over too, I assume, even if there is no reason why.

    I actually do support the trimming of old threads that had only a few posts or views. No reason keep those kinds of things around since no one is going to read them. I especially think the lower depths should be purged completely.

    I for one will be happy to not be stuck with the name Spicylovah anymore....I never made a character with that name but just ended up with it due to sum glitch in the database (I guess??) that scrambled up everyones usernames, and my username was never recovered b:angry

    The faction I'm in was called Thug_Life on that old system (before Arc) because of, probably, a similar bug. b:laugh

    Hey Kossy, think you'll still be able to use "PWI's Greatest Forum Mystery Mod" in the new forums? That has been seriously epic, they should let you keep it! b:laugh

    Hmm? I think I missed something. I saw a comment about jello fighting, which is weird. Is that a thing now? I swear I saw someone else say something similar recently.

    Edit: Oh wait, I caught it...or at least thought I caught something. If not, I give up. I'm tired.

    One of my favorite older derails. It starts at page 30 and picks up speed going well past page 50. T'was a fun little thing while it lasted.

    Doesn't seem to support titles but with HTML being a thing it could probably get added regardless. b:chuckle

    I was looking too hard for something that wasn't it. I did see that it was a massive derail though.

    And I put another discovery of mine in the test thread from trying to point out an obvious bot a couple of minutes ago.

    HA.......hahahahaha. This speaks to me so much. Then again....none of it matters....from what we were told DQ is basically useless now. May as well forget it and move on. What I personally want to know is....is there really no way we can stop this at this point? Is there absolutely nothing we as gamers can do? We have NO say in this? It is really sad...because I like these forums despite the issues with avatars and such. I mean I am not super forum savvy but I was getting used to using these.
