Re: Difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0 (2 replies, posted in General discussion)
I laughed pretty hard at that. Shows how much of a nerd I am, though.
Web 2.0 is a bullshit name, though. Like Ajax... they just gave a name to some newer technologies. We certainly do enjoy labeling things.

I wouldn't use it, but maybe one of my users would like it. Perhaps if you continue to have issues with the code, you should post it here for people to have a look.

Why not just ban the names, using the ban feature in PunBB? Sure, they'll be able to register, but they'll never be able to post using the account
In fact, you could register the names yourself, so nobody can take them.

It looks very nice. I like your use of the "Quicktime" theme.

Actually, I think that is a great idea.

Thing is, in 1.3, the RSS features of PunBB will be improved so that you can syndicate the whole bulletin board, individual forums or even individual topics. With the introduction of that functionality will come the appropriate link tags.
That's great to hear, Rickard. I can't wait for this. I can finally run everything I do through RSS readers.

damn, if only i actually wanted to have opera
I like Opera 8 a lot. I don't like it enough to make it my default browser, but the text-to-voice function is fucking amazing. When reading articles, there is nothing better than to have the computer read it to you.

AM/PM is not too bad
neither are british dates (at least they make sense) american dates are totally messed up because they are out of order
From the way I see it, the American method is set up logically from what part of the information you need first.
MM / DD / YY(YY)
I would never say "The 15th of January, 2005," but I would say "January 15th, 2005."
It's what I grew up with, so it makes the most sense to me.

I don't think it would be appropriate. IRC is not an IM service, just look at how nicknames are chosen (per-session). Maybe a short bio field where you could type up information like that? Or you could just put it in your sig.
NickServ (or analogue there of), anyone? I mean, Jabber doesn't use a universal server, so I don't see why IRC shouldn't be an option. You can /msg in IRC, so I don't see a distinction.

I think a section in your profile where you can show what IRC network/server/channel you fequent would be really useful. I made a mock up, so you guys can see what I mean.

It seems to have removed my link to my Private Messages, but that's nothing a little "additional menu items" won't fix.

Incase any of you guys don't have a good IRC client, you can use PJIRC (a java based client) on my site. You can reach it here.

Re: Calendar 2.0 (296 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 modifications, plugins and integrations)
Gizzmo, when you add an event in Firefox, the "Day" and "Year" functions do not work very well. In the Day drop down menu, you have to click and hold to select a day, and for the year, you have to select the text and continue to hold down the mouse button to edit the year.
I tried doing this in Internet Explorer and it works fine, but as Firefox takes up more and more of the market, you might want to check out the problem.
