Yahooka evolved? More like yahooka EVISCERATED!!

This new look sucks bawls. You want to know what it reminds me of? It looks like our main page got stabbed in the guts and all of it's entrails are spilling out everywhere. A lot of this shit can/should be hidden behind links, rather than splayed out all over the place. What was wrong with the old, simple facade? Plus I think it's slower to load.

/my 2 cents

hehe keep the change

Sorry you don't like it Merc. Give it time. The forums still work the same and you can see who has been here and who has posted. There are advantages and disadvantages to everything. If you don't like it my apologizes. If it's that bad you are enslaved here, but I enjoy having you around. So give it a go. You've been gone for a while and change it hard.

Mercury,

Critique is welcome, insults are not.

You can always go back to the "old" view by selecting YaHooka v1 from your style option.

I didn't add anything. If you go back and look at older styles all the information listed in the "postbit" is the same.

Would you like me to shrink it down?

These were pretty much my low activity years of YaHooka. From 02-03 I really had no internet. From 03-05 I was on at my job, but really didn't notice. 06-07 I moved had no internets again in my home till Oct.'08

I even think for part of that time I only had acess to mod/admin forums as a 'Board of Trustees' type honour for moding for so long. And then had just been totally taken off when I came back, or had to ask for some Forums to mod again.

Now it's good to be back regular now, since I have it at home.

I made an comittment to saying if I am ever going on hiatusish type thing again.

Thanks for the update.

And sorry to see your avatar changed, kinda stuck my as....

2002 was crash 1.

nearly unrecoverable errors were made and then shortly after the board was upgraded and more was lost.

More crashes followed. I think 2005 was another big one.

the first one ate the most data.

For some reason I still think backups of some of those missing parts exist.

not sure why.

They do, but they are extremely out dated in terms of compatibility at this point.
