The "News not worth its own thread" thread

I've added an "Original Join Date" custom profile field, where people can enter their original join date from the old TCH if they wish. I still intend to put these join dates back in the actual 'Join Date' field, but until then, this is a temporary workaround. 

Thanks to @"BrynStevens" for the suggestion !

Neat.

Okay, but don't expect to keep your "1874" join date when I eventually do put those back - so, enjoy it while you can !

Maybe Crow is secretly a time-traveller...

[Pyrite]

If he is, he's clearly not as well-travelled as I am...

[Detective Osprey]

Damn, I'm even more of a time-traveller then!

I'm from the future and from an alternate universe!

Actually, that's a good point - if I'm going to play my role as Future Luke properly, I should set my join date to 10 years from now.

Regular (i.e. non-staff) members should no longer be able to see deleted posts. 

Thanks to @"Lurker101" for spotting this and bringing it to my attention. I'm surprised it took this long to spot !

[Deleted User 8]

Actually, I saw this before but didn't bother bringing it up myself

The PM inbox limit has been increased from 200 to 1,000. 

(Thanks to @"Lurker101" for noticing that I'd never bothered changing it away from the default settings !)

Following a couple of incidents which happened recently, and the discussion which followed (over here), I have made a couple of changes to the 'Advertising' forum:

• This board has been re-named to "Your Sites and Forums", and covers anything that members might want to say regarding their own websites/forums (not just advertising);
  
• The "One thread per site/forum" rule is still in effect regarding advertising threads; however, threads with a clear non-advertising purpose (e.g. asking for advice) are exempt from this rule.
