Almost thought we got major spammed or somethin at first. Nice indeed, easy to navigate to. Thanks

Looks very good----thanks for doing this!!!

And...the new software has already blocked 90 spam registrants as of this morning -- I can block them before they ever get to post.  Woo hoo!

Duane and Steve, thanks for all of your efforts in making our forum much better.  Tom

Will the "last 10 posts" feature be available? That was a very useful tool for me.

[DDGator]

Yes, but its even better than that.  Look in the upper left near your sign-in name.  You can visit ALL unread since you last visit, or only new replies to your posts.  It looks like this:

Hello DDGator
Show unread posts since last visit.
Show new replies to your posts.

When using the "unread posts since last visit" and I leave the sight without reading all the posts the next time  I check in they are not available.

[DDGator]

Yes, it is truly what it says -- unread posts since last visit.  If you leave the site, that resets.  However, you can go down to the bottom of the forum and see "recent posts," which appears to be the last 10 posts.

Thanks for getting me squared away.

Looks Good, just have 1 question I notice some of the Classifications say God Member. Was it supposed to say God or Gold ?  I am one of the old timers in the Computer world (34 Years) and feel your pain at the work it takes to do a changeout without too many users feeling it or even realizing you did it. (That is always my goal).  Good Job Bravo Zulu

Fixed for now -- to something less offensive.

Willing to consider other "custom" categories, like:

Marksman
Sharpshooter
Expert
Master
Grand Master

Any other suggestions for something that connotes various levels, but makes some sense in the shooting context?

    Duane and Tech Guy, I like the new color scheme much better. Thanks to both of you for all the work you did. Now that I'm through kissin'  ass how do I get my picture back? Seriously, great  job!!          Gene

     Another question, used to be, when you were logged in, the times were given in your local time, now they are always in eastern.      Am I doing something I shouldn't?, or not doing something I should. Stupidity should never be overlooked when examining my actions.          Gene

I think you have to go to your profile and reselect a picture.

The forum is set on EST.  Check your profile settings under "Look and Feel" --- there are a lot of settings you can change.
