That's not necessary. The fact that ther thread was created by a staff member and explicitly approved by Joey implies on its own that its existence is an exception to the forum rules. It's OK to have one or two shitposting threads and have fun once in a while - you're too caught up in the exact letter of the rules. Lighten up, please...
I didn't actually realize it was that way, guess I've made a fool out of myself for no reason. I apologize for all the shit I've given you guys.

I have a question, why do we have that too common words filter on the seach? I see it as mostly annoying, considering it prevents you from seaching things like "Pipes" in the gfx forum if you're looking for pipe gfx, so why do we have it?

I'm pretty sure that's built into phpBB and thus it's hard to remove it.

That's correct, it's just a limitation of the phpBB search system unfortunately. You can use a search without that limitation via searching "site:smbxgame.com/forums <keyword>" on Google

I removed the threshold on common words but it requires a reindexing of all the posts, and parts of that process were giving me errors which may very well be a board software bug. Now the search system is kinda broken since the index was deleted and then not fully recreated, so for now just use Google like Pseudo said.

Yeah, same for the egg ranks, they were initially thought to last until the end of April iirc. Though I have nothing against keeping them for a while as long as I'm on the Kamikaze rank. :P

I dislike the colour scheme on the main forum index site. Can't it be something more gentle on the eyes :)

Which color scheme? If you're using the default prosilver one, you can go into your User Control Panel< Board Preferences < My Board Style, and the other theme you can pick is smbx, which is a SMB3 theme.

I've never really gotten why the locked text that's displayed under locked topics is abbriviated. It just looks kinda unprofessional to me:

Also, why has nobody done something about the episode description still mentioning featured episodes?

If you ask me, it is better to just return with the featured episodes

I think it would look better if the locked text wasn't abberiviated.
