Upgrade to vBulletin 4.0.2

Upgrade to vBulletin 4.0.2
Some annoying code kept finding it's way on to the Logicalgamer's homepage, and I believe it is an exploit with the vBulletin 3.8 series. As a result, I thought it was a time to upgrade the forum software to vBulletin 4.0.2.

We have had to disable all modifications (due to compatibility issues). The URL scheme is all different as well, which I will have to resolve tomorrow, else we lose all of those lovely indexed pages in search engines.

If you have any issues, please let us know. Whilst we're discussing the upgrading of the website, I would like to take this time to announce that staff also plan to launch a new section of Logicalgamers in the next few weeks that will give the website far more focus (and, in the long run a greater source of new members and activity). This will put even greater importance on the LG gold system, to name but a small feature. I personally have high hopes, and I hope the community can really get behind it to make it succeed. More information on that will be posted in the future.

Regards,
Artificial.

I think this is a good idea.
Yesterday my virus blocker was blocking logicalgamers for some "http://securewebmasters.com/yup/issue.php?key=638492c9b2b2ee4be8c8f84996edc72a&access=cd72ff121455fc6552dcdc60c3578c4f&o=57696r646s7773&v=536576656r&b=496r7465726r6574204578706p6s726572&m=382r30&ac=1" I don't even know, but it's time for an upgrade.
Thanks Arti.

The new setup is nice but what happened to the LGG currency system D: Its all gone...
#6
Well its certainly a nice new look! but wow oh wow is it so drastically different!

(P.S. Im back at LG ..... kinda i guess ...? im really not sure)
#7
Nice upgrade alex, Cant wait until the new section and stuff :)
#8
looks awesome , gratz :)
#9
The PHP bot doesn't work properly xD
#10
looks awesome, needs the lg logo
#11
I do not like it!!!
The lgg monetary unit is currently disabled, Starting new threads doesn't work for me, The site takes longer to load, the layout is messier, It just all and all doesn't work out in any positive way that I see besides that it is slightly more appealing to the eye with the color combination.
#12
Love the new profiles >.<

And the new release staff is planning is going to be amazing. its coming nicely all because of arti.
#13
Alex, did you save the amounts of LGG that we had?
I don't want to lose all the money I had saved up. :/
#14
I hate the new set-up so much!
#15
Set up is weird. Also are we going to have our LG gold back?
#16
All LG was saved the second before we made the upgrade.
#17
Alright cool :)
#18

you just need tine to get used to it. That's how it'd going to be with everything. Gotta give it a chance before you complain after all it's barely the frist day.
Everything works te same for me. Speed wise.

@Arti: good job on saving the lg :) which means I dont lose any.

http://forum.logicalgamers.com/profile.php?do=editoptions
go down to thread display options
#24
I dont like it that much but i will get use to it then i will like it
#25
Boobearsh will be pissed because of no LG gold <3

But I know vBulletin 4.0.x has a lot of awesome default features as well as visual appeal that would kick ass here (:
#26
I-- I don't like change!
Like, this layout confuses me...
And it's not as beautifully blue D:
#27
I don't see why everyone is complaining, in the long term this'll probably better.
#28
thank you so much iamwilliam, but my options are set correctly already.
#29
It looks cool. But I still think the LG theme before the wipe is much more cooler.
Can't wait for the awesome features to come.
#30
Wait, so the currency was reset again?
#31
> > I AM BACK! ^^ wow,nice job alex..
#32
I'm not super fond of the new lay out but I'm sure I'll get use to it eventually, which is probably the only reason why I miss the old forum style. :3
#33
Honestly, The new layout, while nice, is a bit plain, ^^ and I noticed sometimes when I go to edit a post my signature pic doesnt move and it covers the quick edit box. Plus I cant get my avatar to show up anymore even when reuploading it.

Its because your avatar is to large. It has to be 50x50 or smaller. Arti can go into admin panel and change that. He needs to.
#35
Oh ok. XD thanks
