How do you like the new forum? New tricks for posting?

[Brandon]

If you do the @ thing does it show up on their notifications? That seems handy...

Correct.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Ok what's with the 'new profile posts' at the bottom of the new posts home page?
It looks like we can see PMs between people??

@Brandon

So these wouldn't have been PMs from the old software, as far as I know. They would have been profile posts like @MasterBlaster said. Kind of like a public space where you can just post things to an individual person's profile rather than in a larger forum. I'm not sure why these have such personal information in them, maybe they were hidden on the old site?

What were called "PMs" or "Private Messages" in vBulletin are now "Conversations" in this software, and they are still completely private between the participants (you can have a conversation between you and someone else, or add a number of other people to it).

I can clean those up so they don't display on the sidebar, or just delete the posts so people's names and phone numbers aren't floating around.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I say kill it. I don't see the point of it.

 

[Fiddler]

Those are PM.s from the old forum... I deleted mine and they disappeared.

Did you guys know that Dave is the only TreeHouser I have ever talked to?

He is the only one who knows for a fact that I am not a bot or russian asset.


.....he knows that I am just a run of the mill asshole.

 

[MasterBlaster]

You're better than that! You're a BASS PLAYER!!!

 

[lxskllr]

"Bass Players. Better than run of the mill assholes." Now *that's* an endorsement! :^D

 

[Fiddler]

Ha! Funny you should mention that Jim...I actually considered calling you today after going through old PMs.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Man, I'm luving this new forum! 💗

Ten bajillion smilies!!!

 

[Burnham]

Yessir...I was not able to log on at all this morning, 9ish my time west coast, but tonight all is sailing smooth. Thanks, Brandon and Butch.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Hey - it was all Brandon, LOL! I'm just a dumb climber!

 

[FireFighterZero]

F'in A Dave!

 

[MasterBlaster]

The three of us could throw down some good tuneage!

 

[FireFighterZero]

Wouldn't that be something??

 

[MasterBlaster]

I have two bass guitars - no fiddle, but that's an easy thing to travel with.

Although, I sure would like to see Dave's Big Fat Upright Bass!!!

 

[Fiddler]

Haha you guys would out-rock me in no time flat...

 

[MasterBlaster]

We could always back off a bit!

 

[FireFighterZero]

You guys would make me look slow at half speed.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Kind of sad I lost all those old pm' s. I had a lot of member info saved there.
Sent off a pm to Stig, see if he sees it

 

[MasterBlaster]

Why wouldn't he?

I've never saved any PM...
