Hey dudes and dudettes, the admins here at Hackerthreads have been working behind the scenes to cool-ify the forums a lot today, so I thought I'd just document a few things we've done.
First off, you've no doubt noticed we rearranged the boards (and renamed a few) to make things more organized and logical. We also added a board for
Programming / Scripting Tutorials.
All of the boards are now visible to everyone, even if they're not logged in.
We now have new BBcode.
You can use the nsfw tag for things that aren't safe for work - hey, sometimes they're relevant
Or you can use the spoiler tag to hide things from view temporarily
Also, because v0idE and I are complete badasses, we pruned all users that had 0 posts and hadn't logged in since January 1st of this year, freeing up around 15,000 names for use.
We've got a few other updates coming that are significant, so I'll leave those for another post when the release date approaches. :)
