• Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
    You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here

    Thank you for being a part of our community!

New board, new host, new year

This may be a dumb question but since the move and renovation there is no longer a turbobricks.com front page? Besides having the same featured car for over 10 years there was a section of useful info like the table of various cam specs. Is that still out there somewhere? Other than searching forum posts?

So as you can see, this is the new board. I have (i hope) successfully converted all our data from the last 20+ years from vbulletin to xenforo and moved to a new host with different server software and a faster more efficient database software as well.

This is NOT the finished product!

I'm still working on everything, right now as of this post everything is fresh out of the box vanilla. Eventually once everything looks to be working normally I'll start working on designing a site and board that looks like home. Until then, I wanted to let people come and play and test and let me know below what kinds of things are still broken. As for feature requests or changes feel free to add those as well but keep in mind i will be making changes while things get sorted out and I already see a few things that will be removed and probably a couple that need to be added.

I know a lot of people have asked me where to send donations and I really appreciate all the support. As some are aware, our host went out of business and in doing so cut us 2+ years short of our pre-paid hosting. Additionally the software and addons and new host were additional out of pocket expenses as well. That being said, i think going forward we will be operating at a much more affordable rate. For now, if you want to donate you can use our paypal donate@saliv8.com and put your username in the notes.

Once the board is all set to go we will do a real fund raiser like in the past with things to win and fun events.

Thanks guys, looking forward to the next 20 years of tbricks forums fun

The cam spec table page was down last time I checked but the way back machine has a copy.

 
^^^ It's the mail icon in the upper right, next to your user name - select the "Start Conversation" option.
 
I can't believe it took me all this time to figure out strikethrough all on my own because I didn't google it :roll:
The rudely sarcastic opportunities missed!

Everything looks different and I'm scared of change.

I miss seeing location and join date below avatars, much easier to know who to talk shit to if they live across the country

Overall super excited to have TB back, awesome work!



My Vbullitin PMs still show up? And the "conversion" format is much nicer IMO than dealing with the old PM system. Also email alerts for PMs finally work me

In the meanwhile, your phone may have an option to invert the colors. On android, (assuming it's a somewhat modern version) you can add a toggle (on the pulldown menu) to invert colors and there may be a toggle for "extra dim" which allows the screen brightness to go below its normal minimum.
 
Unfortunately, I swapped to iPhone a few years ago to eliminate miscommunication via emoji with a girl I was chasing. There was enough of a discontinuity in the images I missed a chance to get laid and switched quickly after I realized it. Now I’m used to the seamless integration and stability and can’t go back despite the limitations.
