Unfortunately we had to install this because we had the first version, the first version was great, but this one has so many issues, all sorts of errors, duplicate posts, scroller doesn't work every time, the chat doesn't load sometimes etc. etc.

This is not the right way of putting something out there for users to use, specially when they trust you...

Considering my one forum has about 200+ active users at all times and the chat is abused beyond belief, I disagree with your statements.

Maybe it's the person installing it. Sounds like you never uninstalled a previous version correct.

  • /slap uname username : Slap the user whom username is passed as command parameter.
Or just click the down arrow on their name, and select slap. See what that does. Make sure you enable it for the usergroups.
So I was using it properly, there must be an issue here. When I select the drop down arrow next to a member's name there is no listing of any of the commands there.

I know...but it's not supposed to be translated or it is?

It's just weird to me that some stuff is translated and some stuff isn't. It's not really a big deal just kinda interested really..

About 90000000 posts back I have a post about this. It's one of the items that doesn't change regardless of the language file. It's irrevelant anyways as it's configurable. The ban command is like that too. I have the translations from it in a post here somewhere hehe.
