Hi guys!

I have two pieces of news for you all regarding the forum software.

First: If you are having problems logging in, use your e-mail address instead of your username (still use your regular password).

Second: The reason for this and other small bugs, such as the emoticons box in the posting screen looking odd, were caused this morning by an upgrade to our database. Although I was trying to only upgrade our testing forum's database, I unintentionally upgraded the Lounge's database at the same time, which is what's causing the small bugs. This will be fixed once we've upgraded the software and the skin to catch up with the database.

The upgrade of the forum software and the skin will happen tomorrow night Eastern time, (that's Friday, August 17th). Once we've finished the upgrade, you'll notice some improved features, but nothing very major. Most of the improvements are security, speed, and loading time improvements rather than skin or feature improvements. The skin (appearance of the forum) and the controls will be very similar to how they are now. Also, some features that were non-standard features will be lost temporarily until they can be added back in.

If anyone needs help with a bug that they've run into, please post it in the Official Lounge Bug Reports thread, or, if it is a login issue, send an e-mail to admin@leakylounge.com

Thanks go to Roonwit for finding a workaround for the login bug

*edited to mention non-standard features and give credit*
