YeaH im having the same problem. On both my phones and computer. Ive cleared the history on both, and the same thing happens.

In the short term, just make sure you all of your links and bookmarks take you to https://www.bgol.us instead of
I'm going to set it up so members are forced to use and see if that makes a difference, if that doesn't work I have a few other things I'll try. I will make a post here when I make the change. I have to get with suppoprt to make sure I'm doing it right.

HNIC
OK just set it up if you type h t t p : / / w w w it will be converted to h t t p s : / / w w w , we also set it up so all of your old BGOL links will re-direct to h t t p s : / / w w w Hopefully that will solve some of the problem with folks getting logged out.

I hate the new splash screen
Just link to the forum and you are good
Click forum when you want to go home.

Behind the scene we have a group of people/members preparing to write original articles for the website/board. These articles on the Portal/Splash page give us original content to post to Twitter, Facebook and the rest of the world. We are in desperate need of new blood.

OK @Mixd I just hit up theme house about this dark theme. I asked if it will work with my portal/splash page with a minimum amount of tweaking on my end. If it will work with the portal/splash page (which I think it will) I'll make the purchase.

I'll let you know what's up when I get an answer.

HNIC
@Mixd check the bottom left hand side of the board and you will see xenforo default, click it and you will see the dark theme option. No tweaks straight out of the box. Will make any adjustments as time permits.

The o2nly thing I really need know.... Are thread Ratings. Thread ratings are part of what makes BGOL BGOL.
there is a story to that also, I'll post it up later today.

That plugin/add-on will not work on the upgraded board and was unmaintained.
As long as we were with Xenforo V1 we were good, when I upgraded we were fucked

I hit up the original guy who made the plugin and asked if he would update it for xenforo V2
He replied that he didn't have time and wished me well.

I'm going to hit up the work for hire/developer board and see what they will charge me to make a new add-on

I'll keep you up to date.

damn..

Thanks for the explanation..

but damn..

This is something that you would have thought would have been a natural add-on for Xenforo. I just can't imagine a forum without thread ratings.

When the subject is brought up on the xenforo community forum, you get a lot of folks saying what a waste it is, they never used it etc. So much so that it isn't included as a stock feature.

It's just part of what we have used for so long, that we have to have it.

I'm sure I can get someone to make it, just hope they realize I don't have puff daddy money.

I'll know something in a few days.

I'm starting to get the vibe that the adult content might be up next.
It aint about your vibe, I already told you the adult content isn't going away. Not trying to be a dick. I have went into great detail about the problem with the board sustaining itself. - HNIC

1. I was asking a legit question. I'm not trying to start any shit on here.

2. Forgive me for being pragmatic. I know you are trying to make this site more sustainable for the long term. I support it to a point. I just hope you know that to achieve that, you might have to let go of things that made this site great. It's just the reality of the business.

I think we all have to come to grips on this. BTW, I support you trying to make this bigger. If I didn't, why would I comment on this?

@actinanass I'm not sitting here typing with a snarl on my face. I'm being Pragmatic also. I am letting some things go. The adult content is not going to be front and center. Everyone who has ever been a member of this website will know where it is. We have to do away with avatars and signatures with people fucking etc. Those are changes that I have pointed out and asked members to let go for the long term benefit of the board.

I look at raw numbers and raw number have no emotions. This board cannot continue to exist as currently constructed. We need new members and we need a real source of ad revenue. I have put in a plan that I think will accomplish both goals. I am working that plan every day. You and I will not know the result until we know the result. If we need to make adjustments along the way we will do so.

I thought we would be further along, but it just takes time to do it right. In another 30 days everything will unfold and we will go from there. Take Care Brother - HNIC

The board can't sustain itself if trolls can drown out any thread they don't like with porn. I reported this earlier and your mods did nothing. This is okay with you?

I literally cannot scroll through the thread.


Your mods ban people for thread spamming when they don't like it but I can't start a discussion thread without it being spammed with porn? Why should I ever start a thread again then?

That butt hurt clown is mad because he caught a 24 hour ban for flagrant spamming. I gave him a formal warning about spam after he spazzed out one day and spammed the fuck out of a sports thread with pictures of goats. The shit was weird to say the least.

Well, I have my answer. I'm never starting another thread here and never making another donation since all that free content can't even be dignified with a response. This place is not worth my time.

Still can’t see xvideos
b-stro I'll make a post and stick it before the day is out and see if someone can help you. I just can't duplicate the problem. I'm on a android phone and it works perfectly. I think you and a few others say you are using Iphone products. We need to get yall together and see if there is a solution. Some Iphone folks are having no problem.

Once I get a feel for the root of the problem, I'll hit up the guy who made the plugin and ask what can be done.
