I could grow a beard waiting for IGN boards to load. Only Gamefaqs loads faster than we do, but their forums suck and don't even have the basic features like avatars and quoting.
Hey~!
Only a majority of our forums suck, thank you very much. (And we finally got instant-quoting... to a limited degree.)
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

Thanks Racketboy for having one of the fastest bloat free Forum Page loads online! :mrgreen:
Looks like Atari Age is still having problems with all the Java Bloat. I turn off Javascript when reading the pages there. At least the old skin can now be selected at the bottom of the screen.

Pretty pissed at Invision right now, they've had a whole week to try and fix these issues and now we're going into the weekend so I doubt they'll make any further progress until next week.
I'm beyond pissed. If I was an AtariAge subscriber, I'd demand my money back. The AtariAge forums used to be a joy to use, but Invision has made things worse with every upgrade. Not only can we not use the icons above the text box in plain editing mode, but I went to search a thread and all it does is highlight the words. It doesn't list the posts. If a thread is 200 pages long, you have to go through all 200 pages looking for the thing you are searching for.

I hope Invision goes bankrupt. In case it wasn't clear, I hate Invision. I hope they eat an Ebola virus sandwich and die screaming. Thanks for ruining AtariAge, you bunch of morons.

Invision really is poor; I'm not sure why anyone actually would use it unless they're using InvisionFree on a free host.

Also would be included stuff like the charity auction. The racketboy forum where we talk about racketboy the site? Does that make sense?
