Here's where we're up to:
- Not all Plus members have their full privileges yet; I think I've got everyone restored who paid by direct deposit, but I need to go through the old database for people who paid by PayPal (or heaven forbid, cash). That will be done tonight, it won't take too long.
- I know about the "imported_name" glitch; it even affects me. That's going to be time-consuming to fix and I haven't yet worked out a plan of attack for that one.
- I don't really like vBulletin's standard layout, so I might go looking for a new theme for us. That obviously isn't as important as the things above, but at the moment it doesn't really feel like 'home' here, does it? :(
- there aren't any other mods/admins set up except myself and roesti.
- after a few spammers slipped through the net on Monday I have returned to vetting each new registration before you're allowed to post. This doesn't take as long as it used to, but it will mean new registrations could be held up while I fix other bugs on the list.
- Yes, individual posts have to contain at least ten characters. It means I don't have to crack down on the one-smiley-long replies. :)
- everyone who had an account with 0 posts has been deleted from the system. If you had an account, but never posted, you will need to re-register. Out of about 1000 'idle' accounts, this should only affect one person, who paid for Boards+ but just lurked; I know about your account and can get that fixed for you.
- please continue to add your suggestions and report bugs in the To-Do List forum; I am reading everything that's there. I may not attend to them immediately- there's only one of me, and I have things like 'a day job' and 'sleep' to worry about as well- but I am taking it all on board.
