Hmm...I'm not finding any option on the edit profile area to edit the name...everything else from birthday to title and probably every tidbit I've done before, but not my name....

I can edit it for you if you give me the name you've chosen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Wow...after 16 years or so I hate to change it...would it be for the benefit of the forums if I did? Or, would it be simpler if you just shortened it log enough to edit stuff and put it back? ...or did I just answer my own question? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SBARC Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 I suspect if we shorten it and change your post count....it won't let me change it back to the longer name....let me try something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 What's my letter allowance? lol If I know a limit I can think of something, I'd think.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 ...could take out the word "the" ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SBARC Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 ok...I can't shorten your name and then make it longer again....the limit is 26 letters this name works Andrew D. Jolly Rogers guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stalal Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 This is a great accomplishment Steve and the effort youve put in bringing this forum is awesome and highly commendable. Cant thank you enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thanks Steve! Ya know, I feel awful for ya right now, my friend...you put yourself through every possible trouble and inconvenience, at your own expense mind you, for a whole month trying to get things right, and now the triumphant day of re-entry arrives, and most of what we've done is complain. My sincerest apologies if we're acting like children. I'm trying to interpret it as a sign of how much we love this place and are trying to make our "homes" suit again.

Actually I don't see it that way at all. I'm just sorting out the bugs for everyone. Trust me....I'm not taking any of this is a negative way. To be honest....I'm just happy after 1 month that ARC has any forum members left. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

KursadA Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) Thank you , Steve, for all your hard work to get our favorite forum back online! The new design will take some time to get used to. To be honest, I am fine with it for the time being as long as the basic and critical features are there.

Yup......I feel the same way...I'm just thrilled to see it working.....I really expected the ARC forums to be a smoking hole in the ground at the end of all this effort......there were so many set backs.

Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 For what it's worth, everyone, this is almost the same style forum as they use over at Britmodeller. They served as my "hotel" while the home here was being rebuilt. At least I also knew which hotels I did NOT want to stay at....but I digress. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan Hothersall Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Good to have ARC back. Like the layout as it's the same as britmodeller. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SBARC Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thanks everyone. I must admit I'm stunned the forums are working. It really seemed hopeless most of the time....I kept at it....but it just seemed so impossible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mingwin Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thank you Steve for all your efforts and having keep us up-to-date while the move. there is no place like here... (...even if i'm not a fan of the new "smartphone friendly" website layout trend... (it's kind of boring on a 27" screen...but it's only my problem, i guess...)) but i will surely get use to, fast enough, as i (have always use to) spend hours, here and there on the different boards of the forums...
