So what do you, the reader, get out of this? Quite a bit, but here are a few things to note:
- Comment editing - you can (for a limited time after posting) edit your comments!
- Comment notifications - receive an email notification if a comment is posted in a thread you posted in.
- Username changes - no longer do you have to email me to change your username.
- Account deletion - don't want to have an account here any more? You can delete it.
- Greatly improved user control panel.
- A much nicer article rating system, complete with AJAXified voting!
- Search by title only - I just added a new checkbox to the search form, which will restrict your search to only a hint or comment's title.
Thanks to plattapuss for the expert assistance during the upgrade. At one point, I did something really stupid. Thankfully, he was able to come up with very slick SQL recovery, which saved me from having to start over from scratch! And finally, thanks to all of you for making this site what it is. It's been nearly nine years, and it's still a blast to "come to work" every day and see what all you brilliant folks have discovered.
