Weird.
Vertical Scope is switching the DML over from SMF to some other format. And then they're gonna change the layout to look like all their other forums. And then they're going to stick a buncha ads all over the place and charge people if they don't want to look at 'em.
Which is why all the mods quit and moved in here. Vertical Scope previewed their new layout to the mods on Monday morning for feedback. They got feedback, of sorts--everyone quit. ;:|

I knew it was gonna be bad, but I had no concept of what it would actually look like. Wow. It takes a certain kinda stupid to do that to a forum.

Never let it be said that corporate America is intelligent ;D
It's actually corporate Canada :P
Oh and people are already posting the link for this forum over there...
My eyes are burning.
I already deleted the link off my Laptop and Iphone.
I will not be going back to the DML.
This is my new home.
They're gonna have a class action lawsuit from all the epileptics that go into seize from logging on.
New site looked.... okay at first. Then I realized my password didn't work anymore. Then I saw the 100 ad's between every post. b::: b::: b:::
Yeah I cant log on either.
I was going to say goodbye but screw it now. b:::
Most of the people I know will come over here sooner or later ;)
I tried loggin in over there, too, and I couldn't. Who does a migration and boots all of their users ::)
Yep, it looks just like every other crap site they own. Just went on to make my parting statement.
They've even taken to naming it the Ducati Monster Fourms. Hmmm, wonder where they came up with that one? ???
Hopefully we'll get all the MOB back soon.
Poor bastards......
I want my crash ticker back. That's the only reason I want to log on. :-\ Password doesn't work and the notification of my new one hasn't come in yet. Grrrr... that site is sucking in so many craptacular ways. :bang
Can we get a cool little image to accompany my new bookmark like the DML had? It's nice for us visual folks... ;D
Yannow how when you get stuck in traffic because of an accident, and when you finally get up to the wreck you can't help but look?
I recovered my password and logged in.
:bang :bang :bang
Dear Cod. What a travesty over there.
Well, nice to see you all ! Cheers :wine
It's like a post-apocolyptic hell over there. Stupid is like water--it always find the low point.

I made a very crude ticker, for the time being. It just wouldn't be the same without it, and it's just not right unless it's on your tag line. So seeing as you're here now.... yes, you can have it back. ;D

Not only that, but all the FAQ links are FUBAR, so the whole FAQ section is useless. Amateurs.

Yeah cause they changed all the forum order so now all the forums are different links, the mob was trusty 13 now it's 142 so all links going to forum 13 are going to some other random place...
Hey Sqweak, MM anybody? Along the lines of what 'belle was askin', can you guys get any of our PM's back?
Hehe, I thought I couldn't log in 'cos it was Mac-unfriendly.
Sooo glad I found my way to this place - seems reassuringly familiar...

A Clydesdale, huh? Sounds like I have more work to do...should be running like a scalded cheetah on meth! [cheeky] Don't forget to stop by in a few weeks so I can retorque the motor mount, and we'll make a few more adjustments to the boingers. You definitely need to change your front springs....they're way to heavy/stiff for your weight. Can you contact the previous owner and find out the history of the GSXR front end? It will help us a lot. wt:
Hey all, I like the new Board. ill get my old avatar up soon but I think I need to take a new pic of the sign that said Inglenook.
Dave Paoli aka: formerly "inglenook"
Cheetah on meth, exactly
