Hobie - Why did our "titles" change?

Post by Ysabel Kid »

Hobie - I noticed my title changed from "Obsessive Levergunner" to "Levergunner 3.0". The former was probably more accurate! :wink: Why the change?

Hobie has been dropping some serious hints on both boards. Me thinks that we will be one big happy family again soon... over here!

Just my bet, if I was a gambling man! :wink:

The ranks were re-written to correspond with the old board and not with my distorted view of things. However, lest that be misconstrued, I re-wrote the ranks on my own.

We could add stars or little leverguns or whatever, but we don't have artwork loaded, yet. It might come, it might not.
Sincerely,

Hobie

So, when we make the move over here, will our post count follow us and be adjusted, or will we loose the count from the other forum?

Geeze I hope we don't loose it, I don't wanna be demoted.

So my question is when we make the move to here are we going to be able to access the topics on the old forum or will all that knowledg be lost in the either? I would hate to see years of info just vanish.

Ont the top of the other forum Am_Bra_Col has posted a notice. In it he says he's working on making the old forum an archive.

I'm hoping he can do it.

I'm working on getting the "One Sticky" transferred to HTML. You can view what we've got so far at:

http://onesticky.levergunscommunity.com

Am working on it as time allows. Hopefully we'll get 'er transferred prior to the other site dying...

As for the rest - only time will tell...

Yeah, so long as we all have a place to come to and chew fat, I'm happy.

I rather like the speed of this forum. It doesn't take a jhalf a minute to spit out the page like the other.

At any rate, I really just posted on this topic to view my "standing" out of curiosity.

Just want to see where I stand. I see that J Miller has found something new to complain about -- post count :lol: . Don't worry Mr. Miller. We all know you are long winded. :D 6000 Post and counting on the old site.

Glad to see everyone here and hope that somehow the old site info can be saved. If not, we'll just have to share what we know all over again.
