Happy Birthday Pete! New software as a present?

Board software moved from vBulletin (I think?) to XenForo. I doubt that all of the modules have their companions in the new software. I'm amazed how well things went actually. Good job team!
 
Happy birthday Pete
 
Wait. What? It's only January and you're having a birthday already?

There. I tested the 'Insert Image" for you.

Birthday. You. Happy. Now. Ready? GO!

Thanks guys... @scubadada we're working on a lexicon for you.

PMs are now Conversations You'll find that they keep the discussions you're having together, rather than having to quote and quote and quote.
personal profiles are strategically hidden behind the new term Personal Profiles. We've gone to great lengths to keep it hidden by putting almost everything from the old hidden profiles in there. Insidious, ain't it? :D Just click on your avatar or name at the top of the screen to get there fast!
old likes won't transfer over. You're starting out fresh. Doesn't it feel good? :D
thanks are completely gone. You'll actually have to post and tell someone what a great deed they have done. Use the new "@" feature to make it special. :D

Alerts are new and pretty cool. Now all you have to do is to put an "@" in front of anyone's user name to bring them to a post/thread. I used [noparse]@scubadada[/noparse] earlier to let you know I had responded to your question. I really like that. Also, since xenForo was designed around the DB and not the DB around it, it's a lot quicker. Also #2, xenForo is responsive. That means you won't have to use an app like tapatalk to access SB when you're on your phone or tablet. The more I use it, the more I like it. We're still dealing with a few loose ends, but this has gone very well! Thanks to @HowardE and the Mod Squad for giving me such a great Birthday present!
 
Happy Annual Survival Day!

We don't use Tapatalk because we have to. We use tapatalk because we like it and we want to. In my opinion this is a huge step backwards. Responsive sites are great for a lot of things. Displaying thousands and thousands of records and tex heavy threads is not one of them. One thing that a responsive site is much better at is displaying ads.

Happy Birthday! Thanks for bringing us Scubaboard.
