Upgrading the forum - attn admin, geeks and other users.

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

There's gonna be a new clique now - the Geek Clique!!

It's gonna be somewhere that all the humourless, socially awkward, geeky Gareths can chat endlessly about ROMs, RAMs, Dongles and other profoundly uninteresting things whilst wondering why they haven't got girlfriends. (Well - girlfriends that they don't have to double click on . . . . . )

And I also remember voting on a poll a few years back where there was 4 or 5 choices of new layouts for the forum which came to nothing.

Anyway I voted to keep it as it is, except for more tit threads

:wink:

Being an oldie I dont much like change so I voted no - however if the admin lads want to try it out for a few days whilst promising to change it back if we dont like it then I would be willing to change my mind :wink: :lol:
It shouldnt be that hard to change it back if you are a nerd surely ? :wink:

i love the forum design and everything, but i think we should be able to post youtube videos for example, it'd be fun.

i voted yes mainly because i belong to the "geek who doesn't have a girlfriend" group, but i wouldn't mind if everything stays the same. :barscarf:

I voted no. I think the current design and layout is quite distinctive and not just a boring generic site. This is like Highbury and a new site would be like the Conglomerates Stadium. And we all know how well that move worked! :(

a tits board? :barscarf:

hopefully we can get it changed before our 6-5 defeat at norwich. Then we can just pretend we don't even like football and post tits all day, the perfect solution :barscarf:
