Is it also worth setting up a new Steam group for this forum? Just wondering if Prey was looking to close the existing one for PWF as well as the old forum...

I have admin over one of those groups so can easily just change the name.

I really need to set up my Steam community stuff again. I deleted it all a few years back.

I don't know why, but the forum only occupies a narrow strip of my gargantuan superwide beastie. Suggestions to resolve welcomed :)

Could it be the theme? If you go into your user setting (under board preferences) and try a different one it may fix it?

I'm far from the expert though!

FWIW the Clean Edits one Mantis says is the one he's mainly working with works fine for me on Firefox.

If you're using the Revolution theme, Ian, it's because I just installed it as stock and didn't make any modifications to it. For some reason that theme sets the width of the board as really narrow and it doesn't scale with screen size.

If you want full screen goodness and nicer mobile browsing I'd suggest sticking with Clean-Edits. I'll be tidying up bits of it and adding in colour variants in the near future for those who aren't keen on the white and blue.

Glad you're all enjoying the new place. It was a few hours a night job to get it all sorted out asap and so after seeing Iron Maiden on Friday I've been on a weekend long bender in London.

I've got a list of all the requests and suggestions you guys have made and will start working on them tomorrow so that the place feels more like home.

This should now be fixed, Ian.

Any danger of some form of "badge of honour" for those of us that supported PW for so long on here ... some sort of forum tag or other?

I don't think that would be appropriate, or necessary. Everyone here has been part of the former place for some time or another. TGA is meant to be a clean break and fresh start.
Between tedium and fright
Such is the song of the nether world
The hissing of rats
And the jarring chants of angels

Just to say Mantis it's an amazing job you've done especially with the new forum features and news feeds. Really top drawer stuff mate.
