    But exceptions were the problem, and you used them as the solution? Ingenius!

    The whole time it was down I imagined that the error was "bad sector" on installation floppy #11. :damnkids:

    So what new features did we get?

    You know what would be totally funny?

    Hide the Blue Room forum for a while, and say it was lost during the attempted upgrade. Hilarity will ensue!

    I would have considered it, if it were not for the fact I was too busy thinking
    "OH DEAR JEBUS I KILLED WORDFORGE!"

    If there was anything that was going to kill Wordforge after 11 years, it would be a software update.

    On the plus side, I learned really quickly how fast things go to shit on what should have been a routine upgrade.

    I can give you a Pabst, or I have one that just says "Beer" in white and black text.

    Since vBulletin developers were involved in the creation of XenForo, it usually involves failure on multiple levels.

    Thus explaining the lack of actual karma functionality. Or inability to ban @Packard.

    Yesterday Kommander: "It's still down?! What am I going to do? By the time it's back everyone will have forgotten me and my posts won't make sense to them and no one will posrep me ever again!"

    Today Kommander: "Pfft, whatever. Totally didn't even notice it was down longer than it was supposed to be. I'm a laid-back kind of person that way. True Story."

    The latter, not unironically, being a function of actual karma.

    Just wanted to say I'm so happy you have an ignore thread and ignore forum action here. I wish that was universal across all xenforo boards.

    That was your last warning. Unless my demands are met, next time it stays down. :bergman:

    Hey are we able to search really old posts or can we no longer do that - every time I search for older posts it cuts me off at 5 pages.

    Or am I doing it wrong? :discuss:

    200 posts is the cutoff for search, unless you know the link to the specific post.
