Shame that the little (bright spark) graphic I designed all those years ago that showed a positive and negative wires moving together then sparking as they met is no longer used :cry:
Still it did last through the last two versions of the forums. :coolsmiley:
@John_Essex I just noticed the graphic is back :cheesy:

Brilliant :cheesy:
I'm still amaze that that something I did for a bit of fun all those years ago is still going strong :cool:
I assume that also means that the problem with animated gif files has been sorted?
I'll upload my Avatar again and see if it works this time. I had to resort to using a link to it from my PlusNet web space to make it work properly.

I think I would rather be called "community old git".... and then graduate to "community grumpy old git" if I stayed around long enough ! :cheesy:

This version is forum number 4.
Number one was a very simple thing and there was no moderators as such just PlusNet staff looking after it. and broadband then was 250Kb down at best. It seemed fast though after dial up at less than 56Kb:smiley:
Then came the second version based on Bulletin Board software and that's when they started using Moderators. That lasted for about 7 years or so and I served as a moderator during that time.
Number 3 is the one that has just been replaced and at that time I decided that I had done my stint and hung my moderating hat.
Now we are on number 4 (if it can be made to work properly):wink:

We won't be sharing the criteria for progressing through the ranks publicly
Can I ask why? - You're trying to be more transparent than ever by allowing non subscribers to sign up and yet being secretive about things like forum ranks. Where is the logic here?

As dvorak has said, & as I have mentioned in another post recently round these boards somewhere, and as Chris has previously mentioned (also elsewhere), it's to stop people trying to manipulate the rankings.

Posting just so that I can *wave* at some familiar names.
I'm afraid I don't seem to have achieved the veteran ranking, but I've sure been around a while and worn John's bright spark gif when it was shiny and new.
I think my post count may be low, as I swapped to using 'kitz' rather than my PN username at one point. But I have well over 4k of posts from my time at the usergroup too.
I can recall the move to SMF1 from was it phpbb?
I'm quite certain that that most of the comments about it at the time where complimentary. The most major gripe was "Oooh its pink" as most of us were so used to the familiar orange & purple. SMF1 did OK, it must have lasted about 10 years... they should have really have updated it to SMF2 years ago.
Anways this was just a 'hi' post and I'll leave you old farts veterans to your pipes and slippers.
/me makes a quick exit
