So what happened?
Okay so you asked, Guest. SAR has been offline for almost a whole week, due to the fact I was actually thinking of closing SAR for good. Yep, 4 days ago I wanted to close SAR for good and move on from this. So I deleted the forums and purposely replaced it with a 'blank page'.

But then 2 days later, I've been thinking...and maybe I've made a mistake. I know some people here they call this place home and I demolished it. Also I've been doing a new skin for this forum software (you're looking at her! <3) behind the scenes for a couple of months. I was thinking all that....wasted. So yes, I decided to give SAR another shot, but this time in the new IPB 3! Luckily, I didn't delete the database that held all our past information of this place so the upgrade was possible.

IPB 3 & Sonamy Revolution
For some of you, this place will be confusing for you there and there but you'll get used to it. IPB 3 is very slick and more clean than the previous IPB software we used. Everything here has been changed (or upgraded in a superior way) and you may love the great new features. Today guys, I want you to explore the features. Have a look around. ^^

Avatars & Signatures
You guys will notice straightaway. ^^ Um...when the upgrade performed, it wiped out all our siggys and avatars (but yay, it didn't delete our photo pics!) so yeah you'll need to personalize yourself again. >.<;;

Missing Features
Shop & Rings, Gallery, Trophies, Shoutbox, Challenge Arena and Blog will return in future. It's just the matter of when.
Gallery and Blog will return in 1-2 weeks. The others are unknown at this time. (And don't worry, your "rings" have not been deleted - they are safe...it's just you can't access them at this time.) All past PMs have been removed.

Any questions and feedback, please note it down here. Also, as I said before explore SAR under IPB 3 and enjoy! =D

NOTE TO ALL AFFILIATES
We just upgraded, so please give me time to put your links back up. It will be back here within a week. Thankies~

Oh and btw, this site looks even more pretty if you use Firefox. I recommend you to get Firefox! =D

Another note - European users here won't get their hands on the new SAR forum until tomorrow. So don't expect them to visit today.

If you have a 0, that means no one has rep'ed you on that particular post yet. Each post will have a different rep.

Oh, alrighty. Thanks.

I got rid of the ugly looking Top X Stats panel at the top. More hooks (that's what they are called) on the right hand side now.

All clean and unstretched, thanks so much Sammy. <3

The layout is really nice!
I also like the color scheme. =)

Well you almost gave up on the site :V But you're welcome I guess. SAR is one of two and a half sites I go to. |3

[Spicylicious Chocolate]

Well I had no choice, didn't I? D=

The only negative thing about this upgrade is that we would have to wait for the mods to be updated. Until then, no competitions and stuff for the rest of the summer. ._.;;

Ah, that stinks, but I think the upgrade was worth it. It will bring lots more activity to the site. Having more activity and no competitions is a lot better than almost dead activity and having competitions(even though we rarely ever had those).

[Spicylicious Chocolate]

True that, true that. But they have to come soon these mods. Because I don't want the activity we got now to die out. D=

Well, most sites tend to die when the main admin leaves or isn't active much. Before SAR closed I think you were very innactive. But I'm not trying to say that you must be on every day for a long time.

[Spicylicious Chocolate]

I was inactive, due to the fact the PS3 hugged all of my time. And there will be days next week that's going to happen...


But I will visit SAR everyday though, even if it's an hour.

Oh, well that's good I guess.

[latimerlicious caramel]

wow, first time i saw this.

ok so *is punched* WHAT?! YOU WERE GONNA CLOSE SAR. i cant imagine a time without SAR i joined the place in hopes of meeting others with an interest in sonamy and i think ive made some good friends already, but hey its your decision. if you feel that this place isnt doing so good anymore then fair does.

so how do you work this reuptation system, i gotta get mine up

I have one more little bug for you to check out Sam. :sweatdrop:

For some reason my personal picture is slightly too big for the box in my profile. I haven't checked t see if this is only my browser. I just thought it might be a small fix of adjusting the dimension the image resizes to. I can try uploading it again as well.

Thanks if you can help!

[Barrylicious Caramel]

Also I have noticed that sometimes if I am looking at a topic half of the whole page is missing. X_X

[Rouge Fan]

I'm sure you just love me mentioning all these little things, but this time I do have a noticeable problem. For some reason all my messages were deleted. Including the ones made after the system upgrade. I went to the "My Conversations" tab to reply to an older message. It had a number around one hundred by the tab which I assume is the number of messages I had. I clicked the tab and the number was removed and this message came up:

"There are no messages to view in this folder"

Help?

[No Future...]

[Emerald Emblem]

Shunie, you combo breaker.

[No Future...]

It's best to keep the princess happy. For it would spell death for me if I didn't.
