That's exactly the kind of take it or shove it tude that was exemplified by another poster who took this thread right in to the ditch from the get go.</div></div>

you're overreacting to words typed on a keyboard.

i know i didn't,i thought it was sort of comical.i can't speak for anybody else. </div></div>


There's been overreacting, on both sides of the equation. Some of the people behind those text fields might not appreciate a smackdown in front of their peers on a public forum. It's only comical when the keyboard is pointed at someone else.. .

Most old farts like routine, and are resistant to change. I'm sure it will all work out fine in the end but clearly some people on here need to work on their tolerance game.

2 tenths off your E.T in car jargon LOL. There will be some added features which some have found. Many upgrades are done because developers no longer support the older versions and if the site encounters a glitch/problem they won't provide support.

But...At the risk of me sounding silly, I'm not sure that answered my question. So, what are the upgrades that some have already found?

I know someone mentioned it before, but I hope we will still have the option of listing our name in profiles. I prefer knowing who's doing the talking. I don't get the warm fuzzies when there is no email address or name attached. I know we can't do anything about those who use made up names like a Las Vegas show girl. Take &quot;Stefano Bimbi&quot; for example...

Because I don't know what any of them mean, and the change escapes me. Can't car guys be car guys, even on a computer? Or do I actually have to take a course to learn UBB's and PHP's....to appreciate the change? Hey, just asking</div></div>

...was telling the Admin(s),nice upgrade. this site was way overdue for an update. pretty lucky it wasnt hacked or de-faced. the upgrade comes with better security.

Good job Admin's. I was a little worried that the Computer Nazi's over here were up to no good.

This is a tremendous amount of work to do on your spare time.

Lot's of cool new additives. It took me a minute to figure out why my Smiley face was awake next to my sig block.

Let me jump on another turnip wagon.
