Yep.

We couldn't think of any other reason...

This is why the CBn Girl took so long with her make over - she was getting ready for the New Year party!

Hope you like it Dr. Tynan :)

We had been planning the move from vBulletin to InvisionBoard for over a year... and we though New Year was the best time to launch it.

The Moneypenny feature will be handy, as well as the who is in what actual thread.

Hi Dave and all you clever Team.

I like the changes, but at the moment it's like going back and wearing a condom. :)

I'm sure we're going to get used to it.


Happy New Year,

All the best,


Cheers,


Ian

Basically if you're bad, we can give you a warning. And with certain warning levels you have certain privileges taken away... so play nice :)

Very nice!

It'll take a bit of getting used to, of course, but I love it already. Very nice banners, by the way.

Thanks everyone!

The new forum really rocks.
The old one used to have formatting problems regularly, with the page being over wide without scroll bars to see the rest so you had all these clipped sentances and had to refresh the page (sometimes more than once) to read. Pretty annoying! This new one seems to work flawlessly, and the extra features are really cool.

We even got a Dalton #2 !!!!!!

Congrats to all involved in the changes, I like it already. It took only a few moments to get used to the new layout. I like the idea of everyone having a membership number. I am not so sure about the ranking system though, time will tell.

Do the codes for the movies change?

It looks quite good but I'm not quite sure what was wrong with the old one. It just seems like it's been updated for the sake of it.
Guess it'll take a little while to get used to, like the last one, but I'm sure I'll grow to like it.

What are all the new features then? It'd be a help if they were listed on the main page so that we know.

I'm not sure that there are huge new quantities of new features Tanger. But there are reasons other than 'for the sake of it' for the upgrade. Some of which are integral to CBn's future.

I really didn't mind the 90 second wait. I think it keeps everything in order on CBn.
