Everyone we apologize for the issues and glitches that many of you are experiencing. The staff will work to get these issues resolved. The update to ProBoards 4.5 didn't go so well for DH and we are having a few minor issues. A quick note to the spec mods some of your names have been bumped off of Lake Laogai don't worry an admin will reassign you to LL soon. ~ fixed - spec mods have been reassigned to LLOther issues we are aware of - Bad gradients ~ Fixed
- Member sprites missing / not displaying correctly/ only one member sprite ~ Spirtes will be mofied into one image and the ranks reposted
- Some threads may have changed order ~ just stickies no other threads effected.
- Member control panel issues ~ should no longer be an issue
- General oddities ~ Should no longer an issue as DH
seems to be running smoothly now.
- Quote code issues
- Slow forum load times ~ not occurring anymore
- Pages won't load ~ not occurring anymore
If you have any other issues not listed here please let us know so we can look into them. The staff appropriates your patience we should be back to normal soon.

I'm not sure if this has something to do with the update, but whenever I click on the New button on a thread, the page loads fine but it takes me to the top of the last page but never the new post like it used to.

Well, I be one of those Specific Mod that got kicked out of LL. =(
Hopefully I will be able to get in there soon, so that I can try to do something to help with this mess.

How is a bad gradient... bad? did it do something wrong? stole someone's cookies?
The slow loading times, and pages not loading were during the process of upgrading. Right now it loads much better.
If the 1000 or so missing numbers were inactive accounts, then there's nothing you should be worrying about.

Some people just think the gradients are ugly. XP Yah, the gradients make the text somewhat hard to read, and don't go with any of the layouts at all. Basically, they are tacky and should go away. D:

I like how the gradients look in the Fire Nation skin >_> then again, I've had more time to get used to them on that other Proboards forum.
don't distress for a silly number of registered members. they never reflect the real size of the people who frequent the forum anyway.
I would pay more attention to the amount of people that visit the forum in a time frame of 24 hours, and the amount of posts a day.

People could always make double accounts ;D
I just hope proboards didn't delete active user accounts, cause that would be really...bad.

And guys once we get a few admin on we can fix a few of the issues. A few things should be fixed by proboards but a few things like the gradients we will have to fix. Anyway things should be back to normal within a week at most.

D: Sorry guys! Proboards currently lists our forum's server (31♥!) on the Currently Undergoing The Automatic Upgrade Process list, so the problems and glitches may continue for another day or more before things settle down. I'm not sure if this change is permanent or temporary, but the previous code for the lovely member ranks isn't working anymore due to character limits (sobsob) so until I find a new code or the character limit increases/goes away, all regular members are stuck with just one sprite. Specific Mods, you should be able to get back into LL now, and I also took out those auto gradients from the layout. As for the member number drop, that's because some of the admins have been deleting the ultra-old, never logged in after first creating it, accounts. It is sad to see us drop below the 6,000 milestone, but at least our number is closer to being accurate? That.... that counts for something, right? ^^; But anyway, if you guys see any more oddities or layout glitches, post 'em here kay? Everything should be fine again soon, so we all just have to endure the lag and etc until then.

Everyone should no longer be seeing the auto generated gradients as Musogato has turned this feature off. If you still seem them log out, clear your browsers temporary files, and log back in this should make them go away.
Also the glitches and issues for the most part have either stopped or have been fixed. We do a few issues to look into, or fix such as the member group character limit (the reason only one sprite per member is showing up). But the forum is pretty much back to normal. Again if you have any other issues not mentioned here or an issue that was fixed is continuing please let us now.
Thanks

Hm, the thread highlight color for the theme Fiery Summer is this gross light lilac, which makes the links blindingly hard to see. Its really ugly.
Oh, and the category text color is this light yellow. Wtf. Doesn't go at all again. D:
Just btw.

But the highlight color for the fiery skin is still too bright.

The auto gradients feature, disable the gradients codes it does. Ask the admin to check on ProBoards support you shall. Hmm.
