Site upgrading.

[HongFire]

We are upgrading our website at the moment. So There might be few bugs right now. But everything should be back shortly.

If you really can't stand the current default ugly theme simply go to User CP > Options (http://www.hongfire.com/forum/profile.php?do=editoptions) and change to Love Spring 2. That's our OLD Theme.

To vitsitors that doesn't have an account please use this link for better look.
http://www.hongfire.com/forum/index.php?styleid=5
We are still working on that theme so you might encounter some bug if you do just simply change it back to the default one.

P.S hi guys long time no see. ^^

I am not fully back yet but i am starting to reading forums trying to catch up all the things happened while i am gone and hope to get to know all the new members more.

Hi all the new members while i was gone nice to meet you guys. And welcome to HongFire.com.

[Hijiko]

=O welcome back HongFire =D, never really met you, but it's good to see you back. Looking forward to the new upgrades ^__^.

[Amokk]

The site is gonna have a new 2006 look!
I forgot the link to powermog's suggestion but i like his idea :)
Also welcome back HF after such a LONG time, where have you been lol~

[eMKa]

Nice seeing site is being upgraded for me in good direction:)
Also welcome back HongFire,when I started posting you were rather stopping,but don't know why I always see as a reminder in memory this info:

HongFire.com is back and runing on 3 Dual Xeon Servers.

Server infos:
2 Dual Xeon web servers and 1 Dual Xeon SQL Server.

We are sorry for the down time but 3 servers are not easy to setup and...
:D
Anyway Welcome Back:)

The other new looks is being worked on. But we won't have new 2006 look in this upgrade. Shragei upgraded the forum to a newer version so we got more options to play with in the forum. But his new version pretty much broke all our customized script. So he is rewriting the scripts by hand now >.< gonna be alot work for him We should all thank shragei. ^^

[Boo]

I never got the chance of having a chat with you before you dissapeared but
welcome back either way. :)
Any chance we can hear what you've been up to all this time?

Oh, and by the way; is the main page gone permanently or will it be back soon?

It will be back soon. And alot things that were gone will also be back soon. hint*

Just keep up with the News updates. :)

[Shabadage]

Hey, he didn't cease to exist, WB Hongfire.

[eMKa]

It will be back soon. And alot things that were gone will also be back soon. hint*
That means something BIG?
Better not to know earlier,suprises are better:)

[chompy]

hopefully it means the torrents of past that separate us from being another animesuki clone... (av, socalled "licensed" anime, in essence, freedom to breathe without checking beforehand with some US list) a tracker would be nice too.

[punkfairy]

yay~
You're back~
totally cool ^^
also...
Alot of stuff will be coming back?
If the stuff that's coming back is what i hope it is...
YAY.

Namely, the old gallery software, loli, and licensed torrents. and the larger torrent section we used to have...

[TSR]

Heh. I'll wait to see how things work before commenting on them. But I have big hopes.

Mostly, just wanting to say welcome back, fearless leader. We never really interacted before, but I've always been quite grateful for the playground you and the staff have provided. No place else quite like it, even if there have been a few trying events. And I rather hope your health issues have been favorably resolved so you can have more time to hang out with good company here and maybe provide a firm hand at the reins.


Anyway, good to have you back. Best wishes.

ja ne

[GiGaMoG]

Wow...Hongfire has officially posted annoucement for coming back :D
This is good news! Looks like one of my xmas wish took effect ;D
Ehem..

I believe this is the first time I introduce myself to you since i joined during your absent.
I just want to say hello :D



The site is gonna have a new 2006 look!

[nick64]

[gurururu]

Hopefully your health is well now, Hongfire.

Good you're back.

[shinyo]

In the past I didn't like vBulletin, but that may change : P
Cheers Hong.

[Bubblemonkey]

Welcome back! I hope everything's been going well for you in the time you've been gone....you'd already pretty much left by the time I got here, so it's nice to know you're departure wasn't a permanent thing. Anyway, I thought I was at the wrong forum for a minute there, what with all the changes, but I'm looking forward to seeing where the upgrades are going...

...don't overexert yourself, though....take as much time as you need getting whatever needs doing done.....we can wait :D.

[ChaosDelirium]

Welcome back HF! The site looks awesome now, congratulations on the hard work!

[jinjin]

[Kitee]

Welcome Back Mr. HongFire
Hopefully you will be back for good now.

[BruceKO]

LOL I've notice the return of Hongfire has attracted alot of inactive old members back.
:D:D:D, not only is the site is getting upgraded, i see the forums would be more lively now :D:D:D

[nuts]

No wonder HF suddenly turned into an eyesore when I loaded the mainpage.. ARGH.

Hope the upgrading project goes smoothly, off I be for Lunar New Year celebrations. Much thanks to the hard working coders (or is Shragei working alone?), and welcome back Hong

[Sarutan]

[Adust Wanderer]

Okaeri-nasai, Mister HongFire :)

[Shybal Noom]

lol

-2 lol's in this post-

[Azstraph]

Hey Welcome Back Hongfire, nice to see you are doing all well and fine now. :D

As to the site fixes and return of old thing I hope the gallery is one of them i can't stand using the current version. :(

[GiGaMoG]

did the server go offline just a moment ago? Or it was just my connection?

[MrWiseman]

Posting in a legendary thread... Oh wait, that was from another board ;)

Welcome back Mr. HongFire, I didn't get to know you but I'm now actively posting here.

[MapleSky]

..same like most other people in here, I havent a chance to meet the legend
who made this site great and who once disappeared from the site without a trace..

so welcome back to the land of the living...nah jokes :p
anyways welcome back and glad to meet ya hong ;)

[S&T Kawaii Love]

What a surprise~~

Amazing to see you are back HongFire
It's been so long.. Nice too see you are doing well *pfew*. You got me worried about you, I know that. I am looking forward to the new site updates and to getting to know you beter. Also big thanks to Shragei for working on the code ^^. Someone mentioned to bring the old gallery style back, this also gets my vote. I really liked that gallery especially to be able to manage your own pictures.

[Surreal999]

So this explains it, I was wondering why the layout changed and why my auto-login no longer worked.

Welcome back Hongfire, may the network once again flourish under your leadership. :)

[xaero]

OMFG HongFire r0XoRs teh big one111!

Sorry about that spam.. I got overexcited :P
Too bad I didn't get to know you last time.. I was hiding in the shadows while downloading torrents..
Where have you beeen?

Anyway, Welcome back!

[Fanin]

OMG. Something this big happened when I was away (for 2 days)?

Anyhow, welcome back Mr. Hongfire :)
I see some old faces in this thread as well. :D


1000th post

[cheesemidget]

a new look, me likey. and welcome back hongfire, i didn't even know you were gone (shows how much im active to the site :o)

[CrystalChaos]

pretty much same here.. I think I joined at a time when I saw one of your posts on the front page, but after that I just kinda never saw your posts again, didnt really realize you had 'dissapeared' though >.>""" I feel ashamed ><"

anyways its a pleasure to meet one of the many people who work hard to make this site a great place :)

[ackeejag]

i can see the changes are taking affect. are genders are back and im not sure if the rep system was gone but its back two

[hcl4.]

Nice to see Hongfire getting back to better times. Only one problem right now: the gallery page shows I'm not logged in.

[ackeejag]

thats weird ive been logged on all day and only had to redo it once.

[Strathdor]

Nice to see you back HF.

[Soran]

If you really can't stand the current default ugly theme simply go to User CP > Options (http://www.hongfire.com/forum/profile.php?do=editoptions) and change to Love Spring 2. That's our OLD Theme.Love Spring = my favorite theme ever. If you change the default theme one day, please keep the complete Love Spring as alternative.

P.S. Is it just me, or this January actually feels more like May?

[GiGaMoG]

Hot Spring 2 is getting better now.
The only thing isn't working now is the Quick Reply box.
Is the Quick Style chooser meny at the bottom of the page new?


P.S. Is it just me, or this January actually feels more like May?
I don't even care ... Jan is just antoher month of a the year :D

Second, I like the upgrade. It's a bit laggy while browsing through though...looking forward to the smooth future...:rolleyes:
Lastly, thanks to Shragei (and those who helped along) for rewriting the scripts. Go Getter!...I suppose.:o

[dark998]

Welcome back Hongfire :)

[ackeejag]

[Zapper216]

Yo Hongfire WB. looooong time no see how ya been?

[milkmandan]

with all the new things coming to hongfire, are donations allowed? O_O

i mean comon, maintaining the servers must cost SOMETHING. >_< and dont tell me its located under the sea..

[Toolix]

I think HongFire may have gone undercover to America to assinate all the key members of companes that may have threatened HF... thus explaining his long absence, and the "hint" that something may be returning. :D

[npdcb]

Thanks for the suggesion New FAQ will be made after we change the gallery script.

We are going upgrade the gallery shortly. :)
from the boss himself :D
great to know that they're working on bringing back (hopefully) the old gallery script. ^^
