did they make the transition? officially?

tampa will be back...it's in his blood, man....you won't see him for months and then he'll show up and make 769 posts in one day...its his MO. half of them will be of the plump patookus variety.

smilies, however, do make me ill.

I am digging the new board quite a lot. I too wish that video embedding were available, but I'll get through it. I'm a professional.

No Perks?! C'mon Billy boy! Get with the program! Same goes for my favorite liberal tie dyed wearing hippie, Brainbell! Where ya at brother?! And Tampa?! Where in the hell am I gonna see huge black asses without the help of Tampa?!

Oh, yes, I like these quite a lot too-----> Nolte - The Rocks Off patron saint

Ok. First I want to say that I truly commend and Thank those who maintain this board.

Now,

I will give my honest opinion. I think this new board has potential.

My complaints are:

It looks some-what cluttered and a little "too" busy in places.
The header does not fill the whole page as the old Rocks Off did
The topics are listed in grey

Now for the benefits:
Many, Many new features and options

The things that are right on par for the course:
I LOVE the fact that the admins are trying to make this new lay-out look as much as possible like the old board. I think this is really key. Keep going

*Over-all I cannot, and will not bitch. Hell, you are all here, I am here. I'm glad for all of that.

Ian
