    I always get the credit for fixing stuff. Even when it was me who broke it. I think it's a rule of the universe or something.

    Just noticed that there's no option for giving SMods infractions... Seeing as they're worse than all of the rest of us put together, maybe that should be fixed!

    :p

    wow, the homepage is zippy. It's all good...well apart from the boards logo being missing from the top left, but I'm sure you're aware of that :)

    Post reported for threatening behaviour... If I could give you an infraction, it would be so much easier! ;)

    It just ran a search on yourself for recent posts.

    The return of search has brought me back to the way I used to surf boards pre-05. I'm loving it.

    So, much love to the hard work put in. Clearly there was either some begging to their employers, or the guys actually spent their own holiday entitlements to come in and fix boards. I know that they got to play with some power toys, but that doesn't equate to the great altruistic sacrifices made. So many kudos and beer to the admins ASAP.

    What's funny is that we'll never see threads on the other places about how fast boards is now. Though there may be a thread at some point in two years, "I worked in Dell and I'm going to breach the DPA by telling you all how much money boards.ie spent on their servers and even though it's four times as big now as it was then, it should still be flying along because I worked in Dell, so I know stuff".

    Well either it didn't happen last night, or the shiny new 8 cores made it a lot faster than usual. Either way, it's all good.

    And finally with search back, no more reason to use the modutils to check peoples previous posts. Let the stalking commence >_>

    I like this:
    You can not move a thread to the same forum it is currently in. Someone else may have just moved this thread to your destination forum resulting in this error message.
    It's better than the old error message.

    Fixed. A bit daft, they renamed some images and there's others that are the same as each other with different names...
