I'm liking the changes Derek! Pretty excited to see more people show up. :)

[Cade]

Wait, REMOVED words from the censor? What words..?

[Derek]

Some random sites that were blocked during TTC/MSS days, then I removed fuck and a few of it's variations, and some other words that I forget.

[Neal]

Sounds good to me. Even though I don't get on the forums much anymore, I might get on here more if the activity starts going up again. Hell, I may even start playing AO like I always said I would.

And, i'm glad I can say fuck now. To be honest, its a big part of my everyday vocabulary..

EDIT: ong 666th post

Make a chat window that goes to #streetsidegaming or #AtlanticaOnline? >:|

[Derek]

No one uses the IRC anymore, not much point in it. Maybe if we get enough activity again it'll be brought back, but for now it's being left as is.

[[Pwner]John ッ]

sososososo CAN I REGISTER THE CHANNEL!??!?!?

[Derek]

No, because we're not going to use one.

[Semi-Auto]

Lol we can say fuck.

[[Pwner]John ッ]

(Noob tone) Ummmmm how about if i maeks a irc serv3r for you?


Can I reserve the channel? >

[Derek]

I changed the rest of the Award images, and multiple images on the forum index. I got the skill icons, so I'm testing them out. Most of them won't stay as they are, but some might.

[Red_Banana]

I like the new changes!

[Derek]

All of the user rank images have changed. Thank you EchoTrancer for making them.
