why can we no longer see who is "lurking" in a thread? it seems like this functionality was lost after the last upgrade. is this gone for good?

DrKillJoY

Yes, when the forum was updated recently several minor tweaks occurred that were designed to bring additional speed and reliability to the forum.

At this time we are not sure if that feature will be enabled or not we just have to monitor the forums as see how the removal affects long term performance.

I haven't forgotten about this... still no timeframe on reimplementation. Things run smoother without it.

also in the technical sections...it looks like the related threads section at the bottom of each thread was removed...? i thought it was very helpful.

It led to a lot of necroposting...

DrKillJoY

You are both right.

it made it easy to call out newbs on their reposts.

DrKillJoY

Now you gotta work for it instead of being a lazy e-bully.

Being an e-bully is what teh 7club is all about! If you can't rail on atleast 3 newbs on the front page of a tech forum...well then I just don't know what the point of this forum is

Hey Keith, you wanted pings and tracerts in the slowness thread, I posted some up days ago. whyfor no moar loves?

DrKillJoY

I didn't say you couldn't BE and e-bully... I just said you couldn't be a LAZY e-bully.

I saw it and forwarded it to the proper authorities. I might be a forum (content) admin, but I don't have access to IB's server farms.

Gotta love the 7club. I was starting to miss this place during my hiatus.

I guess Mark was the only one who was a content admin and a server admin...

Thanks for passing the word along, bro.

Omicron has server access I think or did before the IB switch. I'm not sure how much server access Mark had after the switch either. I can do plenty to the vBulletin, but nothing with the routing on the backside. IB's has hundreds of servers I would imagine.
