    very nice!! i can’t wait ^_^ oh and keep up the amazing work u guys! ^_^!

    AWESOME THANKS FOR THE HARD WORK EVERYONE APPRECIATES IT! i hope we get more mod credits!

    Awesome! Can’t wait till it takes affect on my site! Thanks!

    this will be great has it been updated yet because i am not showing any of the new mods in the mod installer section or am I missing something. Doing a great job. Maybe I a little early and the update hasnt been done yet. its 4am here in my part of the country. No I never go to bed. lol

    Do we need to change these things or they change automatically?

    Can an option be added on the
    “[IMPROVED/FIXED] ACP Permission (Fine Tuning) - Reworked (If the Fine Tune is not set, it will basically block all access to functions). Existing Forums will need to add permissions for Non-Root ACP user groups.”
    So that you can have an extra button on the main edit group page (for that gruop) to allow them full ACP access with one click - For some reason on my computer if I click the Finetuning button, the whole browser just closes straight away. It happens in all browsers. Weird.

    Anyway, great work!

    uh guys just telling u if u have any issues on ur forum it’s just temporarily it’s caused by the patch that’s on the way… vipul is testing stuff

    Some nice updates there look forward to having a play, i take it this is also why the rep buttons have disappeared, or is it just my forum

    Well about my whole website is messed up with errors and such not sure if it is because of update but very frustrating

    spongeyguy, please post for help on the support forums. Only 15 boards had the same issue as you and we have 10s of thousands. So please speak up :)

    Hey Smooth.. But the shop is still not fixed then?

    The army/shop fixes will be going in end of this week.

    Great work guys.
    Shop fixes? You mean like name effects?

    cool, that answer some of my question why some things were different…

    Do they add themselves automatically? I’ve no idea if we’re to add them ourselves… but I’d imagine we don’t…

    Nice Thanx ! … Good

    is the store fixed now?

Something to say?
