Forum Update

I updated the forums this morning in order to reduce the registration of spambots and to increase security.
However, the update didn't work flawlessly and I needed to redo some things.
Please write any issues you encounter here - if there are any

Not sure if issue or something that cannot be brought back, but the U-logos are now replaced by standard post symbols here (using Firefox in case that matters).
I hope you know which I mean, green U-logo for no new posts, red one for new posts in subforum.

Smirftsch, I seriously lol'd. You're our newest member now! And you have 5000+ posts - within one day! Not bad, not bad.
(Just kidding, but if you check the newest member display on the bottom of the forum page you are shown there).

Yes. But it clearly stated "Maintenance" there.

hopefully this new version fixes the RSS feed bug that has been here since last year where random posts are missing?

Rss is still broken for me here is the latest missing posts
anything above this post in this topic is not in the feed
http://www.oldunreal.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/ ... 564754/3#3
its easy enought to look at the feed in
http://www.oldunreal.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/ ... =RSSrecent
it ever changing so here is a screenshot of what im refering to
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/18734201/FireS ... %23002.png
im reading the feed with google reader, and can see almost all the new posts most of the time if it helps you. and it caches the ones that are older then the feed. so i can see a infinite bAcklog of the posts since i suscribed.
Its dropping alot of random posts , anything you can do about this?
the only thing i can guess here , is the feed is only showwing the LAST post in any thread( up to 10 threads?) , and not updating often enough on your server to caught the other original last posts?
is there somthing you can configure to change this behaviour. mabye
