It's almost too much information! Great work in completing this upgrade in about the scheduled time. Thanks again for providing this board!

Is something running to censor profanity? i don't have a problem with that, but it is causing some trouble. Words like c-l-a-s-s-i-c and a-s-s-i-g-n are being censored and it looks more than a bit silly.

Should be fixed.... I'm trying to flesh out the profanity filters database...missed a bracket.

New Feature : Modified User Titles. If you are using the DEFAULT user titles, you should see something a bit more colorful now. Sorry, due to security issues, I can't do the same for Customized Titles.

The upgrades look great. I like the new features. Thanks again for a great forum.

I like all the new bells and whistles. Now if there was just something shiny you would have the entire gambit.
