An upgrade for the board is out there and I'd like to install it and get it over with. Some minor fixes and security updates. I will bring the board down at 2pm EST and will take about 15-20mins to complete.

You should have been around in 2003 when I first dealt with vBulletin and CPanel. We had about only 5,000 posts luckily... Anyway, I'm checking things out in CPanel and looking at SQL Databases, which at the time I knew pretty much nothing about. Now, mind you, I'm a tech, so I "really" should have known certain things without even testing or reading, but anyway... So I wondered why there was a "Red X" by the database name, and I clicked it. No warning or "are you sure" messages, just GONE, database was history with a click of a button! LOLIn a ideal world....

That's what they said about the Nixon tapes.

Probably 5% of the board will get to this post, but I'll try anyway!
I'm reaching out to those using telephones or tablets. This upgrade has added "Forum Runner" to the board - http://www.forumrunner.net/
I went through all the setting and all looks good. But I don't get prompted to use the forum runner with my Acer Tablet. Haven't checked with the Ipad yet. I'm curious if this is working for anyone?

Oh well, disregard that post. I found out where the settings were and activated it. A mobile device will get prompted and asked whether or not they would like to use the app, which makes using the site much easier for a mobile device. If you answer yes, you get redirected to Itunes or the Google app store. It's 1.99 for the user to get the app! LOL Fuck that. If it were free I would advise members to give it a try, but this seems like a cheap sales tactic to get members to buy a 3rd party app. I believe the forum has a built in mobile style that makes it 'easier' for those people, but charging for easier access is lame.

yeah I'm not buying any app. The site isn't that bad on a mobile phone as is.

Just added code that will now notify you when someone has "thanked" a post of yours. Can someone please thank this post so I can see if it works? I'll do the same to others in this thread, and let me know if it notifies you... And it's supposed to also give you a list of the last 25 or so that thanked you, I think...

It works, now how I disable it on my profile? I get FAR too many thanks to be looking at my CP everytime I get one.

You have given 14 thanks to others' posts, while receiving only 5 thanks total, out of 7.652 posts you have made, in nine months. That's a extremely low percentage and certainly not worthy of worry about getting a flood of thank alerts.
By the way, I got your joke. Just helping out for others.
'Is there anything wrong with anything.' Is that what you're asking, friendo?
Ignored by the alt-right
^The "thanks" numbers got reset recently.
"when socialism fails, blame capitalism and demand more socialism." - A friend
"You know the difference between libs and right-wingers? Libs STFU when evidence refutes their false beliefs." - Another friend
“Don't waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.” - Paulo Coelho

And yet you have a quite strong percentage. I had seen the thread about the re-set.

I didn't even know they'd been reset recently because A) I don't really pay attention tot hem, and B) I had taken a hiatus, but my rep hasn't been reset and usually rep correlates with thanks, I've been thanked 5 times in 2 days of posting. Do the math..........
Ultimate Badass
Actually it never does, they are two totally separate and independent features.
Five times in two days? No, it's since the thanks was reset to zero. What, weeks ago?
