Good to see you guys back. Since I saw the notice I've tried every few days to see if you were alive yet. Will be checking regularly to see what happens now.

Hey there Garyopa i love the new design but the only negative i have is lack of colour at top of webpage looks good enough colour but when you scroll down well it aint clear for the eyes if you know what i mean just a suggestion anyways good job

[Tempos]

Well don't know why you calling it MaxConsole v1.0 -- I personally think the front page is very well designed, but we open to your suggestions on how to improve it, if you see any major problems, just PM me the details and I will look into the matter more and inform our web designer staff. -- As for XSS and the search box, we are in the progress of updating the VB core, so it will not be a problem shortly!

It's mainly a reference to the web technologies used (2.0 in the field generally refers to application type sites with a heavy emphasis on ajax and interaction). The new design is nice and thanks for fixing the XSS issue already, that was quick !

What ads, there is small divineo one at the top of the forums, and another at the bottom, and on the news portal just 5 ads in total, do you have screenshots you can supply of the problem, we here to work for the users

Just promise me you won't have full video and audio advertisements for household cleaning products on the front page and I think we will be on good terms.

Welcome back!.

I my running around site to find some bugs.

[H2o]

Today :

Small security checks,
extended the cache system for month top, most liked, most unliked sites ...
Also created a cache for search requests, 4 hours turnus to waste cached searches etc !

Also added some generic gfx for sharing via FB and G+ , so you have some custom icon when you share maxconsole there !

More stuff coming ...

Hows the speed at the moment ? I mean VB seems to be okay, but how´s about the news in general ...

Thank you for helping us making MC better

Congratulations with the rebirth of MC. It used to be one of my most important sources about console news and I hope it will continue to be so, forgetting the past few months of nearly non-existence.

Good to see that you're still alive and kicking, GaryOPA!

[DCarnage]

F Yeah! Welcome back Maxconsole!

Issue #4 - Solved

Issue #5 - Some profile pictures could not be read from SQL when moving them out the database to be stored as files on the server.

Solution, just upload it again. -- Reason for the change, much faster to have them grabbed from HDD server cache, instead of doing an SQL database query.

Issue #6 - Threads older then 2 years have been archived, at the moment non-accessable, so any thread you started more then 2 years ago will not appeared.

Reason for server performance

Good luck with Maxconsole, ill be interested to see what happens with the place.

Way too much white though, i find it really hard to look at the site at the moment! other than that keep up the good work.
