Here in the new site

[wackyrider]

Well, I'm here having a look in the new site. So where the hell is everyone else??

[sen]

I'm here, drunk as fuck, but here.

[wackyrider]

lol. Others seem to have some issues logging in. Not used to it being so quiet in here. If I should loud enough, will I hear an echo?

[Fight_fan]

I made it! Woohoo!
New set up is awesome!

[Gix11]

As mentioned, I fucked up the email link to reset paswords - correct link here: http://www.streetfighters.com.au/login.php?do=lostpw

Cheers

[Seifer]

Well that was a pain in the ass but im sure JackTar has had worse

[Gix11]

You think that was a pain in the arse - jeez, I'm still going after 3 weeks!

[MuZ]

Yeah!!! Im in. dont mind the new site at all... gonna take a bit of getting used to

[Gix11]

Once we get used to this we'll be wondering what the fuck we were doing with that old piece of shit.

[Hillsy]

I'm in.

Looks pretty spiffy.

[Hillsy]

Err....what's the difference between a standard full member and a basic full member?

[Slain]

Race related

[kev@vcm]

ok im here what a top site i really like it well done Si well done indeed

[Redmohawk]

In , and making a mess already !

[Gix11]

Err....what's the difference between a standard full member and a basic full member?

I'm expecting this to cause confusion for a while (I know I'm confused anyway!)

Here's where we are at currently with membership stuff: http://www.streetfighters.com.au/asffull.php

[Slain]

Sounds good. Can we pay the difference now to upgrade our account from our last forum membership and are the bank details still the same?

[Gix11]

Er, yea, and yea. It's all going to be a challenge for me but bring it on!

Bank: NAB
Account Name: Aussie Street Fighters
BSB: 084707
Account: 163608512

The paypal system will do all these memberships automatically on this site but any upgrades or bank transfers will need to be done manually by me, so sorry for any delays with those.

Just for reference, you now have access to your membership status and dates via SETTINGS link above, then click the PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS link in the left hand column.

[kev@vcm]

im happy to update my full membership to premium

[BANDITROD]

I'm in now aswell peeps

[RevHead]

im here thinking about getting pissed to remove my headache ,lol'
i also had 2400 previous posts and there gone anyone,

[Gix11]

Did you read the post on the home page about people who signed up twice with the same email account? That's the reason mate. Go back and have a read of it so I don't have to type it all again.

[ALBI]

i think most members are going to the link in favorites like i was ,and site was still in repair !!!
it wasnt till i went to facebook and saw that it was up and running !! re typed web site in goggle and got new site .

[oldskool]

Where is the active topic button?

[Gix11]

Just click WHATS NEW? in the menu bar above mate. It tells you everything that has changed since you were last here, including blogs and other shit.

[Jinx]

Thank fuck its up and running. I was having withdrawl symptoms. Site looks good Gix.

[BANDITROD]

Nah mate, you signed up as husapete the first time. I checked and had to change husapete to revheadpete. No drama though, all good now, plus I just found your old post count and updated it.

Cheers.

[Gix11]

Well, looks as though some of the dust has settled and people are getting into it, so I'm "going on break" - AKA: beer time

[BANDITROD]

BAM right in the nuts Pete and I will keep an eye out while your on break Si

[Gitzy]

And a well earned one at that, The Bloke with the Stick is a Legend!!

[Weaselman]

Had to mash the keyboard with my fists of ham but I'm here

[Nudie]

Im in at last. I had a few issues, but that's probably because im not smart

[Hagarr]

I'm in on my. iPad but can't access via PC for some reason ???

Anyway looks great so far Si. Considering I hate change at least seems to follow other protocols currently used on the web!

[Hagarr]

All Good forwarded the links to my work account blah blah ......... anyhow all good to go.

[mozza]

Finally made it !!

[Jed]

Made it - The new site looks great. God work guys

[Gix11]

God work? Wow, that's a big statement!

[wackyrider]

Not sure if someone has already mentioned this before, but is there a way to set the 'What's New' button. On the old site u could set it to 1 hr, 2hr, 6hrs, etc...

Reason I ask is cos several times I start reading something, then get some work in and have to leave it for a while and when u go back to finish the topic, u press 'What's New' and suddenly all your other unread threads have disappeared due to the time passed.

[Gix11]

Yea Jules, click the ADVANCED SEARCH link at the top right and then from the FIND POSTS drop down (which will say "Any Date" by default) change it to last visit or yesterday or whatever you want. Will that do the trick?

Sweet as Si

[Shadowzone]

I made it back. Damn Chrome and it's most visited sites function kept redirecting me to the temporarily closed site. Could have something to do with my technological retardment too.

But now I'm back I can stop trolling in the Bitch forum over at CF...

[Tony Nitrous]

Starting to get used to the new site.

Not sure why overnight I became
"Tyre destroying, mad bastard menace"
and my avatar pic disapeared ?

Computers have always been a bit of a black art to me.

[LKC73]

Woot! Im back in again!! only took me a couple of days to work out how to get here, but Im back!!

[Gix11]

PM sent mate. Check your profile to see it.

[evilkarl]

In terms of site presentation, the new site has to be one of the best I've ever seen. Well done. Bunch of lucky bastards these 'streetfighters' are.

[Tony Nitrous]

PM sent mate. Check your profile to see it.

All's good now thanks.

Just realised i've been on ASF for 7 years !

[wackyrider]

How come some people have the old slogans (Power hungry, law disregarder, etc..) on their name and others have ASF Standard full member.

I understand the different levels of membership, but some people have the old slogans, which I always thought were kinda cool

[Gix11]

Old slogans appear based on their post count only, and it means they have NO membership at all.

[Tony Nitrous]

Yeah. I just found that out.
Paid mine a day or two late and didnt understand why things had changed.

Dhooo!!!

[LKC73]

Hey Si, where are the "how too" pages that were on the main web site. I was currently looking for the GSXR fork upgrade Deano wrote, now its gone!! Unless im looking in the wrong place?? Help......

[hooligan]

i was wondering about that. Guess I'll have renew my membership eh?

Shit mate, I forgot to bring that stuff over and it will be a big job as well. The pages could be converted to forum topics or blogs, maybe blogs are the best actually. Anyone got any spare time to copy them across? Either that or I'll get around to it soon.

[EXBEN]

the facebook & notification tabs appear on top of my username at the top & they are overlapping each other?

[BANDITROD]

[LKC73]

If you tell me how I will do it Si

I also could lend a hand in that area, they where a great way to find out how to do stuff.
Anyhoo Ben is looking after some of the convert work for me soon enough ;)

[Gix11]

You're not using IE are you - Surely not?

By the way, if you actually connect to the Facebook thing it shrinks to fuck all size and would solve your problem, but that still doesn't solve mine as to how I have to reshuffle everything for everyone who doesn't.

[Gix11]

Luke and Rod, ok guys, you're on. Crash course tomorrow (if I can work out how to allow you guys permission on this control panel from another planet, from some time in the future).

[LKC73]

Awesome! Just hope i dont fuck up the whole site lol..... But if I can help in anyway, Im there!

[BANDITROD]

No probs mate

[EXBEN]

Ha ha don't be like that .
I've connected & it's all sweet thanks.

[Gix11]

So you are using IE? Just need to know mate as it's ONLY IE users that have the issue and I want to make sure it's not on another browser as well.

[EXBEN]

yes I am using IE

[rod185651]

I've gone back to usong IE as Chrome on my lap top is painfully slow and times out when l try to surf the net.

[Large]

yes I am using IE

And you reckon I'm a homo?

[EXBEN]

I tried using Google chrome once & found it gayer than a box of Larges, so I figured if it aint broke.........

[EXBEN]

Im sure this has been asked but how do I now show a youtube vid rather than just the link ?

[xa-mont]

put [video] tags around it

[wackyrider]

Is there a way to increase the time it takes for the system to log you off the site? It keeps logging me off after 5 mins or so if I do not do anything.

[BANDITROD]

Have you got cookies allows ....

[RevHead]

i use google chrome n it works fine for me ,,

[Gix11]

Chrome flies. Have you cleared the cache and temporary internet files in it recently? Firefox is also good but a bit slow for developing for me. IE sucks balls big time and should be your last choice if ALL other browsers suddenly disappear. Opera, Chrome, Firefox, Safari should all be considered before that IE shite.

If you insist on using IE make sure you are running the latest version.

[Large]

Ben said "What's wrong with IE, Why are other browsers better?"...or somesuch.

Your answer was much more eloquent than mine thanks Siimon.

Did you tick the "Remember Me" box when logging in?

OK just deleted Temp files and cookies etc.

Closed IE and try to log on using chrome. I got this message again. I don't get it. Is my Chrome fucked?

This webpage is not availableGoogle Chrome could not load the webpage because www.google.com.au took too long to respond. The website may be down, or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection.
Here are some suggestions:

Reload (http://www.google.com.au/) this webpage later.
Check your Internet connection. Restart any router, modem, or other network devices you may be using.
Add Google Chrome as a permitted program in your firewall's or antivirus software's settings. If it is already a permitted program, try deleting it from the list of permitted programs and adding it again.
If you use a proxy server, check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server, adjust your proxy settings: Go to the wrench menu >Options > Under the Hood > Change proxy settings... > LAN Settings and deselect the "Use a proxy server for your LAN" checkbox.

Error 7 (net::ERR_TIMED_OUT): The operation timed out.

[rod185651]

OK I fixed the issue, my firewall was set outgoing only for G chrome, I changed the setting to full and now it loads fast again.. That was the issue you think?

[Gix11]

You got it mate. It was letting it out (go fetch) but nothing in (i.e. bring back web pages).

[Gix11]

The biggest issue I'm having is leaving it logged in and then coming back to What's New to see about 3 posts, then realising it has only listed those 3 but there are heaps I missed. What's the best plan Callan? Log out each time? Is there something where we can change the amount of what "What's New" is?

I keep getting asked about the way the latest topics are listed as well. The last forum listed them per forum area whereas this one seems to be random to say the least. I've searched but can't find a solution. Got any ideas?

[sen]

There's no easy way to make it list "per forum", but i'll see what add-ons there are for other ways to check what's new.

There is a better way to check when you last read the forum though, i'll set it up when I get a minute... basically instead of using cookies (which are unreliable, as people have noticed), it uses a database entry to keep track of what you've read. It's a bit more resource intensive, but it's a lot better, so probably worth the extra read/writes.

[losymis]

I am new but Im here

[timbo]

Hey im back te new site looks great and i dont seam to be having any problems so far so all's good

[Gix11]

I just found that and switched it across, so we'll see what happens now.
