No, im not dead. im still alive
Is obvious that we just updated the forum to the lastest version, let see what the spam bots can do now.
Any comments about the new board are welcome, i will make a few layout changes in the next few days.

It's a shame the old banner isn't there...

hopefully this will help out with the spam bots. Hopefully you are taking advantage of the new phpbb features aswell.

Its alright........ I would like to see those cool banners we had before
Edit: Are there any other skins or something, this one is looking kinda bland..... its hard to tell which topics are read/unread.

they are search engine bots used for indexing, google uses them to help document whats on the internet. They can be blocked / restricted. Dont worry they wont post.
THey have one major issues, they use up a ton of bandwidth.

nice work guys... i feel totally disoriented now due to the new layout but that is normal with such changes... all users need a " break in" period till they get used to it... most important thing is the spam, i wish this is over by now

"The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: timing belt"
Please, we need a better search function!
I find that using a search engine like google, just enter "site:daewootech.com" and what you are looking for.
