Hey all 👋
Now that the season is (almost) complete, overnight I've carried out some much needed maintenance.
Bumped the XenForo forum software up to the latest version, so you may see a few minor UI and feature changes, but not many, as the software is fairly stable
Moved the server from...
As part of the forum upgrade a stronger warning management system was implemented.
It's hard to actually get banned from this forum, typically offensive content or behaviour is given a warning and a temporary suspension kicks in after a certain number of warning points are given, with the length...
It's shocking to read about it.
I wonder where all the Putin apologists are now?
It's disgusting and it shows how well Putin has played the west, even though it has been obvious for years.
Unfortunately the Bigpond email server doesn't like emails send from WestsTigersForum.com and is rejecting their delivery.
This means that if you have registered with an @bigbond.com email address you won't receive the confirmation email and associated link. I've submitted a ticket to...
With this latest update you can request to have your username changed.
I know a lot of you had your usernames changed years ago to replace any spaces to a "_"
You can now submit a username change request within the "Account Details" section of your profile.
Welcome to the big update for 2022.
A lot of work, planning and money has gone into this update, but it will be worth it!
I know that there's been a bit of change lately, but this update and the effort that's been put in has been made entirely in response to your feedback.
Now everything will...
Morning everyone.
Just a heads up that the forum will be offline this weekend while the yearly maintenance takes place.
These tasks normally take place at this time of year, before the trials start, while the forum is quiet.
This year we'll be bumping the server up a version. Over the past...
Hey everyone,
I've mentioned before that, as per usual, the next update will be happening in the next few weeks.
I do these updates now as to avoid issues during the regular season
However it should be noted that this update will be quite cool.
Some of the mods have already seen what's...
Hi all
I know there are issue at the moment with quoting.
Please stand by. The current version of the software is not going to be fixed and I’m currently testing the forum in the new software. Sorry please stand by
Hi everyone, another quick update from me.
As I said in my last update, following on the feedback received from a diverse range of stakeholders over the last 12 months, I've been conducting a systematic review of this forum and its context in the wider social media landscape. Suffice to say...
Be advised that I have disabled the up/down voting system.
The various incidents over the past few weeks have been both disappointing and, to be frank, embarrassing.
This forum MUST be a place for enthusiastic yet adult discussion about a common interest.
Over the coming weeks I’ll be...
So apparently getting rid of our greatest ever player was supposed to usher in an era of dominance, well so said the illustrious brains of this forum.
Yet here we are.
And there he is.
Bring him back
Hi all,
As you may have noticed, there are some slight differences to the forum today.
Overnight I brought the forum software up to the latest version. I usually do this around this time of year as it's when we are at our quietest. It's important to do it each year so that any bug fixes and...
Every one of us remembers where we where when it was confirmed that benji would be making his debut. I was in year 10 at high school.
I supported a team that was very poor.
17 years later the game has long since changed, benji did the most changing!. He inspired, he excited, he enraged and he...
In order to help counter bots, I've enabled some additional email validation for accounts.
Now some users may have to re-validate their account before they are able to post again.
You should be presented with a message prompting you click on a link in an email that would have been sent to...
I just watched the first episode that dropped earlier today.
10/10 from start to finish!
Perfectly picked up 20 years after Nemesis (and the Romulan supernova in ST09), yet forging it's own way forward.
Seeing Picard in the TNG-era command uniform made me squeal!
