- You can now delete your own posts. Only forum moderators or the originator of the post can delete a message. This will give the flexibility for a user who posted to remove his/her own post.

- WARNING: Major difference.. signatures now default to off at request. If you want your signature to show in a post, check the box

Have a good evening all!

Thanks.

As a guideline, it makes sense to add your sig into your first post in a thread, but leave it off for subsequent ones. It makes the thread easier to navigate and makes for lighter loading of the page for our dial up members.

Awesome, great work JR. Thanks! Now everyone doesn't have to look at my sig all the time because at my age, I forget a lot.

No problem.. I would really like to switch the board over to a PHP bulletin board.. for a few reasons..

1.) its free.
2.) it runs on a database called MySQL which give me some added advantages to work with.

The interface is similar.. but NOT the exact same. It has some cool features this forum doesn't.
