PlasticMind Forums: Apologies and Upheaval

First off, I'd like to apologize for some of the crap (pardon the language, but that's truly what this garbage is) that's been showing up in some of the forums (an incorrectly configured set of permissions is to blame). I try to police the forums well, but belligerent spammers don't care about you or me, they're just out to make a buck, and in the process flood you with porn, gambling and cheaps meds. The problem for now is taken care of.

Secondly, I've been running into problems with phpBB (the software that powers the forums) as it's one of the more hacked programs on the Internet; so I'm working on beefing up security, and in the process, I'm going to try to switch the forums to a faster, more secure forum software. Things may change, but I'll do my best to let you know about the changes.

Finally, thanks for those who keep the discussions alive. My goal in starting this forums was to provide a place where people could come together and discuss things that matter (and some things that don't) without any prejudice of age, skin color or location; so I thank you for all your valuable words. I vowed a while ago to make this a better place, and I'm working on it. I can now tell you that this will soon become "Tommorrow's Pilgrim", a place for discussion, resources and building up each other. The gears are turning, and it may take some time, but it's on it's way.

If there are any changes you think would be beneficial, please let me know. Thank you again for your understanding and your interaction! May Christ be honored above all!

I just thought you were trying to generate some extra revenue...

i like the new look :) since i started using punBB (like you, switching from phpBB) i've really liked it. i've come to find that it's a heck of a lot easier to skin & make it look exactly like you want without having to do a lot of excess coding.

maybe i'll finally register & start posting :)
