For the first time in 12 years, Jamaica is trying to field a bobsled team for the Olympics.  They've been raising money by way of donation to do it.  But not just any money!  They've been taking their donations in Dogecoin.  And raised more than $25,000 worth.

With phpBB, is that a situation of archiving the old forums, or can they be imported?

I actually was interested in the touchscreen as a mirror for mouse movement, especially in third person action things.  Playing Saint's Row 3 and 4, one of the things that stuck with me was that the controller was better for just about everything I wanted to do in game except aiming, to the point where sometimes I'd take a hand off the controller and aim with my mouse.  A touchscreen on the controller would resolve that.

Yes, that's what I said.  Tube insists that the only way to change a name is for him to do it himself manually, and thus no name changes.  It wouldn't be "the only thing I will ever be able to do" if he weren't pretending that it was something he had to do by hand.

Yeah, as described, the situation is one of three things:

1) this forum software is extremely terrible and written by blithering idiots
2) his implementation of this forum software is extremely terrible because he is a blithering idiot
3) he is a bald-faced liar

and I want to preclude #1.

I'm only familiar with Vanilla through the Penny Arcade forums, and while that looks pretty good, keep in mind they probably have an army of volunteers there working on the code, so of course it'll look good. At the very least I'd like to see some middle-tier Vanilla boards as well, to see what can be done when you have fewer resources on tap.

One thing about the Penny Arcade forums is that it is impossible to change your name.  The guy who runs them claims this is because of technical reasons in the software, that he has to manually edit the entire database to change a name.  This is probably total bullshit because he's a worthless jackass, but is worth verifying.

So no silly, like, five-image limit in posts or anything.

Infinite scrolling

Opposite problem, still terrible. Is it even remotely possible to turn off infinite scroll on a perthread basis? Who wants to load 200 images at a time until there are 4000 images on one page?

Me when I'm reading your LPs.

I would love the option for infinite scroll, or some other means of just loading an entire thread into one page.  For ease of searching big threads, and for the general hassle-avoidance of continually clicking through pages.

A man speedruns Minecraft, for charity.  ~16.5 minutes from creating the world to the death of the Ender Dragon and the credits scroll.

Apparently Alan Moore has this massive hate-on for Grant Morrison, too, because he spends a good third of the interview trying to rag on him.
