For all those that hate this new format!!!

Reminds me of something you'd find at the 99 cent store.    :-(

Yea, Sorry Admin, I have to agree with plains and simpletreasures on that. The new format really does not do this site any justice at all.

 I think we should all e-mail admin and voice our discontent with this directly. He may not see this forum as the since the new format is so bad.

 Oh no....CHANGE!! 

Not crazy about it either, but I am sure it was not done simply on a whim....

I'm guessing it really cuts down on individual page space, especially when some of the "Errant posts" like what's your daily wearer seem to turn into novels that begin to equal the size of a "Congressional Report", but with a little forwarning most of us wouldn't have spent 3 hours trying to figure out why our computers were screwed up.....   ;-p

Sorry all this, was totally unintentional. I do not know when or how this happened, but rest assured it wasn't done so intentially.

I have rectified the situation and set the forum layout back to what it was and was it was suppose to be.

Someone in Japan is playing silly buggers with the site. I hope that have not hacked it?

I need to investigate further

I dont know how, but you can block users by mac address (actual computer id) and ip as well. Th mac being more important as ip is easy to hide or fake whilst the mac is not so easy. The server host should do this for free if someone is messing with the paid hosting service. The mac addy should be included with the ip somwehere in the use logs

I'm hoping it was just a slip of the mouse button by me and not a hacker. Strange that it coincided with someone trying to get to the forums setting page from Japan.

Give me a yell guys if you see it happen again..hopefully not.

Admin. I'd guess that anyone trying to access your settings is probably up to no good.
