Sincerely did you guys see that you slipped in flame war totally out of topic? I will leave to forum guys to drop warnings, but i really wish to mention that as Grammar is important thing, still there is a lot of people who you will encounter on internet, that live in other countries and English is not first but second or third language for them. There can be people who don't write or speak very well but can have valid ideas and contributions to discussions and with flaming them over language mistakes is in end a big lose, helping them by pointing on its mistakes is a lot longer way and maybe even unsuccessful but even if you help them recognize and correct one error it can be one small step on long way ;)

thanks all on support, this mean a lot! We are doing what we can, but major decision is if we wish to spend all our next years web maintenance and upgrades to pay some lawyer and not even be sure he will win a case :(, when someone piss us enough we move all we can, and in end they finish in hands of law but it is long process and there is a way too low or better to say no help from who have to help sites like ours. This attack tip.it with tens of thousands of automated boots, and still they dont have enough force to keep us down ;), it is not a kind of attack where you and 100 guild members "DDOS" other guild site :) this is done with botnet, you can read about it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botnet

All was quiet... Or was it? While everyone rested... Your fearless leader was waging a war... My own home had been infiltrated by terrifying legions of the enemy! Thousands of... no, hundreds of-- Ok.. Two bats... but I fought them valiantly, trying to remain brave and strong for all of you, knowing that everything depended on my courage. The world would be safe! I would make it so! Finally, after fighting on and on, with everything I had. I won the battle and the intruders had been removed! I spoke to some people soon after, causing them a little confusion about the battle. They seemed fearful that my mind was gone. Some even tried to leave. So I explained a little better. They seemed to understand the situation a little better. Or did they? And others helped them to understand. I explained the battle more clearly. They needed to understand the heavy weapons that I was using. Never underestimate a broom and an old shirt! I also needed to make sure there were no more of the bats lurking in my home! Finally, I explained how it ended. So, although they came to my home uninvited, I won the war and did not hurt them, but was merciful and allowed them to leave unharmed, except for their bat pride. They will know to stay far away from me in the future! English translation provided by Turtlefemm on behalf of Silverion

UPDATE Sat Jun 15, 2008: END OF UPDATE Yesterday we installed a new homemade style for phpBB which gives to the forums the same look & feel as the main site, HIP HIP hooray for Errdoth who did really great Job of creating this new style in so short time! Remember that you can change your style in the User Control Panel by clicking on Board Preferences and then use the drop down menu to select one of available styles :) Some people like this new style, some will like prosilver more and we are working to add even more so most people can find one they like or just change them to fit their mood. Link to get there fast ---> Board Preferences Of course, that is not all. We are adding even more new features for all users. We've just added the Friends/Foes list ability, so you can avoid reading posts from people you don't like, and also you can see the online status of your friends, and send them some of upcoming new smiley's ! You can manage it also from Board preferences under Friends & Foes section :) thanks for reading and have fun with new features and styles! Your Tip.it team

I know it is not possible for all but it helped me to keep my eyes free from eyeglasses, in any case we will continue to look at and add new styles as soon as possible. We cannot use too many as with every official update of phpbb we have to adjust all of them and it often in past creates problems but ...

Even better: http://p27.us/phpBB3/ EDIT: D_V_ Devnull's suggestions below have been incorporated. Great work !!! :D Thanks you very much this will for sure be a first theme we will add ! As i see you added even our CSS color changing that can be further improved to add some more colors combinations and styles what if people really like can be then ported even to web site :) It look like there is also requests for a more classic prosilver + black version for people who stay a lot in front of monitor so that they don't fatigue eyes more, suggestion is to always have one small light at back of monitor so that there is no contrast between monitor surface and surrounding ambient, something like philips backlight if you have seen HDTV with lights at back.

Here is links for people who wish to help working on new tip.it style http://www.phpbb.com/styles/ so you can take a look and we will create some thread under graphic section where we can vote and help develop a stile we like :)

Note: Read this announcement for information on how to recover your lost posts: Restoring Old Posts/Guides/Blogs/etc. ---------------- Dear Tip.It members, I'm happy to announce that the forum is up, but I also have sad news. We lost 2 and half months worth of posts. Of course you will ask why and how this happened. Unfortunately one of our own staff, an ex tech admin who maintained the forum for a number of years, backstabbed us as his goodbye act. He used his inside technical knowledge to hurt us. Tip.It has lost hundreds if not thousands of dollars that I will have to cover, but what is more important is the loss of 2 and half months of creativity from our community: ideas, guides, jokes, links and much more. We worked hard to recover whatever was possible and for this we can thank Darko and especially Marshalrusty who spent sleepless nights and a ton of his free time to bring the forums back. His help was priceless. A positive thing is that we are restarting with better, faster forum software PhpBB 3 that is complete with an all new engine to make your visits here more user friendly, and also gives us better tools to manage and maintain this really very BIG board. This community has grown over the years to hundreds of thousands of people visiting our Tip.It web site and forums and sharing the way Tip.it was born to be, an independent and open site where we grow to respect each other in a friendly, helpful and FUN atmosphere. There are over 60 active staff members who every day voluntarily try to help you, by creating web content and keeping this board up and running. Please understand this loss and have a little patience so that we all keep this community better than ever. Thank you, Silverion On behalf of the Tip.It staff

You know LIght you never can leave really, one part of you is all around this site and around hearts of all people who know you ..
