    Just a heads up...

    vBulletin has a somewhat important patch out right now that I want to install. I'm Planning on shutting down the forum for an hour or two late Saturday night to get it done. I'm thinking of starting no earlier than 11pm but will post again tomorrow.

    Hey george, will that do anything to fix the dead link chatbox bug with Chrome that showed up recently?

    Probably not since the chatbox is a third party plugin. What dead link chatbox bug? Not familiar with it...

    Me, fred,and a few others have been getting a dead link icon to the left of the time in the chatbox. I think this usually will say new. When the chatbox refreshes, it throws the spacing all off.

    To my knowledge, it has only been for those of us using chrome. It used to work just fine with chrome, but started doing this about a month ago.

    Possible Homepage issue!

    "Homepage, Calendar, Classifieds, Groups and What's New" are working fine...
    When I click the "Forum" tab... doesn't seem to wok!

    Am I the only one?
