Update: More smilies are now all available on the side when posting, but in a scrolling box. I originally had literally every smiley in the box, but it was getting a little obnoxious on the reply page load times, so I kept almost all the still images in the box and most of the .gifs behind the view more option as a compromise. Please don't take that as a reason not to spam all the stupid shit from the view more menagerie I have supplied you with, however! :boin:
I'm also always open to suggestions for more.

Also, I have a board announcement extension now enabled which will allow me to put announcements at the top of the board if required. I'll do it for the first time tomorrow when the CyTube party begins and might use it to announce when I'm live streaming afterwards. I'm having some difficulties with my stream and PHP code at the moment, but I think even if I get a ticker on my site to say when I'm live or not, this forum probably gets more consistent checks so it's the best place to catch peoples' eyes even if I do have something working on the site.

Done. Just put the same one from my main site for now but maybe I'll eventually come up with something original.

Updated phpBB to most recent version. It's always a bit scary to do this but everything seems okay. Going to go back to attempting to fix my certification issues for streaming after adding some stuff to my site. CyTube info at the top of the site as an announcement. Hopefully it's not too distracting or in the way but I think information about the event wasn't communicated to as many as I wanted last time. Of course, don't join if you don't feel like doing so. But I hope you will.

I'm pretty sure the issue is that certbot created a new certificate for live.pantsuprophet.xyz instead of adding it to the current one

Yeah, it seems to be the case. I'll tinker with it in the next few days. Have some IRL stuff to do as well though so I've put this on the back-burner.

Sorry for the small coup. But since I only saw the declining future, I tried to meet the demands of people written in the introduction thread. Please forgive me.

I think it's a good idea. I'm always very happy to see others make new threads, and while generals always seemed a little imageboard-y, it might be the best way to inspire others to ask questions that aren't "worthy" of a thread of their own. I applaud your efforts and dedication to this forum and community. :rawk:

Thank you. This forum is the only place I can browse with links2 without any problems. Of course I can't play the YouTube videos directly, but I can just open the URLs with mpv.

Also honestly speaking I haven't been sure if this forum would last long. So I have been spending much of my free time (including the lunch time) while it is still alive.

i wouldn't be annoyed at all the new threads if the OP had actual content

mass produced threads that are just a title and basically nothing else feel really cheap
