Forum software Updated

[Kazzer]

My son Lance has just updated the VBulletin board to v.4.0.5 as the old board would not allow on to view a users profile.

I have also added a slot to your profile page entitled 'Your Real Name'. This helps me (and hopefully a few other poor ol' souls,) to remember who's who. We've had a flurry of 4-5 people register who are spam attackers, so this will help weed them out. I've deleted them from the database. Although this isn't compulsory, I'd appreciate it if you would fill it in.

By checking their IP address, you can usually tell if they are up to no good, so please keep an eye open for these guys and let me know if you spot anything suspicious.

Hi Mike,
I just tried using "Reply with Quote" to a thread - was very much a shambles with text fonts size codes etc mashed into the text itself.

Not sure if this is part of the upgrade or not, but its more confusing than previously.
Thanks

Hmmm! I've just done the same thing - seems to work fine! Try it again please.

Working fine with yours but Lothar's torpedo thread is where I struck the problem.

Thanks

That post was made in a weird font, which makes the quoting feature challenging. The old software would have done the same thing. Per the changelog for this version, there were no changes to the reply with quote feature.
