Title: New forum
Post by: Numsgil on June 21, 2010, 04:56:51 PM: So the web server was compromised and we had to wipe everything and start over. Since we were doing that anyway, we upgraded the forum software to something more open source that should be easier to mod.

We still need to set up the wiki and SVN, but otherwise everything should be back to normal. If anyone has any issues, email me at Numsgil2002 at yahoo dot com.

Post by: Testlund on June 22, 2010, 02:25:49 PM: What the heck...! Had some problems finding the post button and I had to log in twice. Maybe you're working on the site right now and that caused the glitch. Looks like the whole internet has turned into a hacking war zone if you ask me. Many sites all of a sudden has started to port scan people through their ISP's DNS servers. Hmpf! >:(

Post by: Panda on June 22, 2010, 03:58:33 PM: I had problems with that too... The "Post" button is in the wrong place. I kept on pressing "Preview".

I had to log in twice first time also. Not sure why that is.

But if things feel broken after this let me know.

Haha, it has been ages since I have seen you here. This is new over the last few days so you are in the same boat as all of us. :)

Post by: Shasta on June 23, 2010, 02:25:48 AM: The wiki is back up and running at the same URL. (Also the links on the main forum work again, they have something to point to now.)
Title: Re: New forum
Post by: Shasta on June 23, 2010, 06:06:14 AM: $\LaTeX$ also works now! Just use
Code: [Select]
[tex]EXPRESSION[/tex]
$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {x = \frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}} & {{\rm{when}}} & {ax^2 + bx + c = 0} \\ \end{array}$

Post by: Wake on July 30, 2010, 11:56:43 PM: One bug that's been pestering me: If you are not logged in and try to search the forums, you get stuck in a loop of it asking for you to enter the CAPTCHA endlessly. Once I finally created an account just now, however, the search seems to work fine.
