^ Kinda slow but much better than it was a few days ago!  

 

I don't recall "the middle ages guy" being in our previous emoticon library   I thought you added it b/c you like the smiley  

I actually remember that being cane (like the member) a long time ago.  not sure when it became rolleyes

oh well as long as its consistant now I guess we are ok. 

The rolly works well enough for me . As to the Middle Age guy, at first I just thought she was joking because I had never seen bard guy before   .

As to the speed issue, would it be worth it to move the topic user and date from being seen outside of the thread? It seems to me that seeing it at the top of every page within said thread is more than sufficient. As a result, one can at least scroll a little faster even if the overall speed is temporarily compromised.

So I partially agree, I wasnt planning on removing it all together as it would look even more plain without pictures up there but at least those images should be static and small. When someone has a gif, even though its shown as a tiny little 150px image its still multi megabytes in size. It creates issues for non broadband users. 

I will look into it once other things calm down. 

Also I liked this idea, what you guys think?

So like the faces of each model beside each thread. 

Do we have any presence on FB, Instagram, twitter or whatever else people use these days?

The site on the link didn't accept me. I actually hope that you keep this one in the thread itself as is, gifs and all ...

Somehow I had the idea that this info under the thread name was taking up a lot of space whereas now that I look at it a little closer, most of the space between topics is blank.

My city computers are really fast, so I can't really say how much shortening the page would benefit a slow computer to be honest. The model pictures next to the thread is an interesting idea. Having this effect that we have for the topic starter apply for the first post when the cursor touches it may be worthwhile too...

Three newcomers are listed as members of the BZ staff in the Staff Directory:  awesomelovely548, ipb_support, and makoto.  Is this accurate or errors as the result of the upgrade?

makoto and ipb_support are legit, one is devoloping custom plugins for us and the other is the forum software support guys. No idea who awesomelovely548 is so I will look into it. Thanks 

Should we remove all these Moderators as well? Should we add more Moderators?

^ We have enough. No need to add more so just delete

Not a single one had been here this year so agreed, but agreed that there are enough too   .

Thanks for the info.  Appreciate your response, as always 

Hooray for the software support guys!

I'm LOVING the new forum. It just feels smoother and looks so much cleaner. Thank you for all the hard work you've put into BZ Bossman. <3

Could we possibly get this as a emote

^ I don't see why not

Code to emoticon

For exclusive use in the Taylor and Sara threads.

^ Or any thread that has been infected by the VS or SI virus  Which is pretty much 90% of the site

Thanks to the new report format, I can edit the posts and never visit VS model threads again .

Can I still add emogis or did I lose it when I gave up my powers  . ?
