It's a new month! Happy Birthday Gaming Latest! And new updates on the GL forums.
Welcome everyone, we did it once more, we have achieved yet another anniversary birthday for the forum! So as we enter the eight month of the year, as always...
---- Of the Month ----
Member of the month goes to
froggyboy604 for obtaining so many trophies on the forum and many posts! Congrats! Topic of the month: If you were to compose a book, what genre would it be?
---- Big Admin News! ----
Huge news everyone! Yes the forum is older, but that isn't it! I have purchased my very first house! YES! I am an official adult!
I have been cleaning it up and ripping out some flooring this week, so I've been veeeeery busy for a hopeful move date in another week or so. Please be patient as I deal with this huge life event and the move I will have to do. That aside, we must celebrate....
---- Gaming Latest Turns 17 Years Old ----
Yes! Hard to believe the forum is so old and getting to that voting and drinking age! Usually I ring in the birthday with a new skin and other things, but with the upcoming Xenforo 2.3 upgrade we will need to complete that first, which might be later this year? I'll start testing it out soon and see how it goes. I can say we have upgraded the backend PHP without issue.
For now enjoy some new images for the weekly and monthly update topics. A few more seasonal themes may pop up as well!
Of course, thank you everyone who has been here and continues to visit Gaming Latest, I am truly grateful!
---- Gaming Latest Contest----
To celebrate GL turning 17, I will be hosting a contest later this month! Please keep an eye out for it and its wonderful prizes!
Now back to forum updates...
---- Award system ----
We have now officially dump our old award system for Xenforo's trophy based system, upon dumping it I learned that the addon was giving the trophy system some extra features now gone >_> so I need to poke around some things but I'll resume working on it once life settles later this month. I'll detail all this in a later post.
