DeadCert Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site Yeah, nice one on the upgrade :clap But what happened to my Post Count from the PL. Have I registered wrong? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Puntalot Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site DC, post counts will be adjusted over the next week. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONEDUNME Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site I have a problem Paul. I'm sure you have plenty on your plate with the change over but I posted a couple of tips in my "Perfect System" thread in Systems and strategys last night and the bastards have disapeared. If only some of last week's could have disapeared, I'd be grateful but unfortunately, one of them was a 4/1 winner. It would have been posted between about 8.30 and 10 last night I think. Any clues?

Runar K Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site Just testing to see if this works! And I might as well use this post to ask a question: Will the name of the site change from Punter's Lounge to Sports Bar, or will both names be used?

payoutwindow Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site Yes nice upgrade guys .. VBulletin is the definate leader in online Forum software. I know a lot of people are currently switching from PL to here .. but I would advise you guys to turn on e-mail confirmation and I think there's an image/text type verification add-onn which can be put in place when signing up. Both of these will reduce spammers drastically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Puntalot Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site Yeah, I am going to add the email verification soon, I just didn't want the regular members to have to be bothered with that. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: nice site Paul sorry if these sounds cheeky but is it possible for when you get round to putting my original post count back that you add 750 to the number of post that i have accrued? would be great if you could might sound silly but i like seeing my posts increase :) cheers Paul :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too fussed about the post counts at all (unless they are being used to qualify for the Tipster's Challenge), so my opinion is that you Paul shouldn't bother with them - it must be a heck of a job to manually add the post counts of every single poster here at The Sports Bar. But if you're doing add-ons, you should add the 400+ posts which I had in my old username (Bryter). ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tocegti Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Re: nice site I like vBulletin, experienced them with other sites before, and it is definitely the best out there. Nice choice to move away from ezboard, always giving problems, especially with logging in, and staying logged in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Re: nice site Hi Paul Glad you have had a smooth change over to the new site. Couple of points though. 1. You seem to have to scroll down alot to view each post as I think there is more space at the top of the page. 2. I showed the site to a mate who only has a modem connection and it was very slow in loading and when we tried to work out why there are over 140k of banner images to download and 60k of html making over 200k per page which he found too slow with his modem. I completely understand you want banners would it be better to have them only on the home page and section header pages. ie not in every post you view.

DeadCert Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Re: nice site Why was the name changed? The PL was the shiznit. New name is good too but if it ain't broke... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only the same as before, so no real issue there. ;) 2. Again, same as before, but SB loads much much faster, which everyone has pretty much agreed. :) I'd say it's more likely the pc he's on, and the fact he's on 56k. :eek Broadband is the way, didn't think we had any 56k people left. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
