Been offline for well over a week ?
Looks like a new server or board.

Tim: The server had to be upgraded with newer versions of PHP, mysql, and Apache. However, no one knew that the software version used for this board was as outdated as it was and required an extensive upgrade path to keep everyone's information and posts. To make a long story short, there is a newly purchased licensed software on this site now, there were a lot of phone calls, a lot of support tickets back and forth, a lot of server tweaks, and now Frankie's is running the current stable licensed release.
With everything that has been upgraded and changed, you might as well say it's a new server and a new software.
Cheers!

Yes, you can post away. It may be a bit of a change getting used to things again as this "look" is different in many ways to the older one. But functionally it is still the same.
One thing I DO think will come in handy on this forum for the debates you folks have here is the new "Quote" button. What that is... for anyone interested...
As you read through a longer thread and want to comment on a post, just click the Quote button. It will turn red. Keep reading and just click the Quote button on as many posts as you like in the thread. Then, when ready to reply... just click the "Add reply" button. It will auto quote everyone for you automatically, in one post, allowing you to respond to each one within the same post. Really nice feature I think.

Had a lot of fun heckling and pointing out the Arizona Desert DoDo's hypocrisy well the board was down Sure is nice of the Alabama master mind to offer what the Arizona hog hoser couldn't offer. A board that folks have learned to respect.
