    Everybody is rightfully entitled to their opinion there Cannibal and that includes you I guess. Question, what in the xx is a Luddites?

    ==========================

    Still quite a few hops form the Land of Oz, I think Dallas was not that many previously but had higher pings.

    Now have you guys got Zend Optimizer switched on, there is something still lagging, the site is becoming faster than previous when it was in hosted in "The Planet", but something is still up, this should be faster comparably from the move.

    Back to the design, I guess its something we need to get used to, but all forums should have SKINS so the user can choose his/her theme, be it dark, darker, light, ligher, Bright, Grey, White.

    On that note, some Font/Icon balance would be much appreciated and thanks making the move, but get your Zend checked out will ya.

    Cheers~!

    I think Ill get used to it but being an old luddite myself I will need retraining. I have always used search function by entering ticker i.e RDR and then viewing by posts. Today I enter tickers and "no results found" is all I get. I even searched "PRC" same result. Can someone help me here.

    By default the database only allowed search terms of 4 chars or more! I've just changed this to 3 chars so it should work for stock symbols. This should start working tomorrow, as I will have to rebuild the search index in the wee hours so as not to kill the server...

    Thank you for giving me permission to have an opinion. ;-)
