I'm thrilled to open the Tall Men Chat forums which are now online on a dedicated server not subject to the rules and guidelines of free forum hosting. This is the real deal and will be maintained and fostered going forward.

Most of the posts from the original board Lanky Men have been copied over and are now under Lanky Men Archive.

I would like to hear any suggestions for improvement on the new board. Please also ask if you have any questions on how to work things.

I like it, I would would personally get rid of so many forums and just put one forum for pictures and one forum for chat. It makes it too confusing and time consuming to search through every single thread. Kind of like the lankychat forum right now.

Yes we have limited it to 2 main forums, except for the lanky men old information, i will see if it can be condensed. Have you tried the What's New button? It will also only show you what you have not seen before.

thanks for the feedback.

The new board looks very nice. Being on your own server is the way to go. Btw, I like your Avatar. I'm a big Lost in Space fan, myself.

The Lanky Men archive forums are now collapsed by default.
Expand them by clicking on the + sign.

Very snazzy........The Black/Electric Blue color scheme is quite eye popping. Almost "Sleeper".....(Woody Allen) Futuresque.

I love the new forum! The layout, the arrangement, everything is great! Thank you so much, loststar for making it happen! I am also glad to see some familiar names from the old board here.
Now, if I may add a constructive criticism: it was a great idea to import the posts from Pugman's old board, but it seems you also imported the old members, which now show up as "imp-xxxxx" where xxx stand for the old member name. I tried mine, but could not log on with my old password, and cannot do anything with it. However, it is confusing to see there are 400-some members when most of them are actually "ghosts". Could something be done about it? Thanks a lot! Otherwise, all of it is just perfect!

yes we have been trying to come up with a good plan for those members, the next release of the software we are using, sometime in june, should offer us some possibilities. so stay tuned for the resolution.
