Welcome to the new forum

If you're reading this, we've succeeded in converting the forum to our fancy new forum software! Your old user accounts should work, except you now need to log in with your email account instead of username. And if you haven't changed your password for quite a while, it may not recognize it anymore.
It's still not complete, so there might be more features (such as search) coming whenever I have extra time to add them. If you see anything wrong, please tell us in this thread. Except if you can't post, and that's what's wrong. Then I'd appreciate a mail to ville@monkkonen.net. 
I'll be highlighting some of the new features I've added later. First I'm just trying to see if the thing hold together...

Private messages says 'no private messages yet' even though we already exchanged some.

Still, tried "forgotten password" to see if it recognized my e-mail address... it did not. So, I tried registering. I clicked the link in the activation e-mail and... got an error message. Any ideas?

It's probably got to do with the server treating lowercase emails differently from uppercase. Your email is mageking17, same as it always was. It shouldn't have let you register a new user though. I wonder what it said when you tried clicking the activation?
I tried activating your account myself, and it worked. You should now be able to log in. Can you send me the activation email you got that didn't work?

I apparently signed up with an email address I hadn't been using in ages.
Since I can't, could you please change it to my current one (narvius@gmail.com)?

Could we have internet addresses automatically become links?

Neat, thanks. Another thing is, the post-writing text box goes beyond the forum borders.
Resolution is 1600x1200.

Ah. I reloaded the page with Ctrl+F5, and the problem is resolved for me as well. Yay!
I've noticed a couple little nuisances related to posting. Creating a new post right on the same page as the thread you're posting in is absolutely wonderful, but editing loads a new page. Can post editing be changed so that you can edit the post right where it is? 'Cause the thing is, I use the thread overview in the lower pane on phpBB a lot when I'm writing longer posts, and I don't recall it showing up when I edit posts. This would fix that.

Could be, at least later on.

I put in the old search box, but a quick test shows it only find about one tenth of what it's supposed to. Google hasn't yet released their search technology for App Engine, so I'll have to wait several months before making a better search.

Edit: Though not anymore, for now. Strange.

Hooray, it works now!
Ville: The activation link from the e-mail was http://www.instantkingdom.com/user/activate/?c=4jk5gshfzqp5ap&e=MageKing17@gmail.com
Also, the title of the e-mail was "Action Required to Activate Driftmoon Modder Account". Now, you may be using these forum accounts as Driftmoon Modder accounts, but the title could use some clarification. 
Also also, the error was something along the lines of "try copying&pasting the link, also someone may have used this link already". I think it also may have said "lost password something-or-other" at the top. Sorry for not taking a screenshot at the time.

Is it possible to get email addresses changed?
The one I'm using with this account is ancient. Like, first days of gmail ancient. It has 2000 emails in its inbox which I am not interested in sorting out.
Nice forum though.

I just noticed two things. Firstly, the "Modding questions/answers" topic shows as "2 new" permanently for me (no matter how many times I go through all the pages, it still thinks there are two new posts I haven't seen).
Secondly, it's really annoying to have to log in every time I come back. A "stay logged in" checkbox would be much appreciated.

Vacuus, just mail me your new email, or post it here. I'll change it.
MageKing, it's just as I suspected, your email was capitalized, but the software it didn't understand that. Thanks for helping out!
I've seen the new posts error, I'll fix it the next time it happens to me.
It should always stay logged in, that's the default behaviour. Isn't it doing that for everyone? All users logged out yesterday when I moved the forum back to www.instantkingdom.com, but it should stay logged from now on.

I've had to sign back in every time I come back here, except for the handful of times I came back within a few minutes of my last visit. That includes right before posting this.

Fourthed. Though I'm used to it (I used to connect through monkkonen.net until recently, which was kind of wonky at times as well).
