That is super-cool. This incident has improved things.

You can change it. I don't remember the default. If there is a style you like for phpBB 3.3.0 I will install it.

Now who is ugly??

I agree, and the worst thing about it is there are no good settings, you can get close to good enough but it never gets even close to good. It reminds me of a subway bathroom: go in, do whatever you have to do, and get the fuck out as soon as possible. It's like ICJ intentionally set it up to inhibit people from lingering.

I don't know but I hink it looks nicer. of course, I'm in high contrast so it may look different for those with "Normal" sight.

This is a quoted message. Quoting seems to work.

This is a message using the "Post reply" button at the top of the page.

This message has been edited. This sentence no verb. This lacks fifth thing - two past "c", four past "a" - in how humans do writing.

I don't see where anything is not working same as it was.

I started working on the issue within 15 minutes of pinback and myself realizing something had changed on its own and ruined the BBS. I took time off work to begin the installation and default style transition, changed the BBS settings so that people could select their own styles and then offered to install any other style that people wanted. One of the styles was the exact same one that was the default one before, just compatible with this version of phpBB. Yet, the cries from mewling pissbabies: why couldn't you have done more?

It's just that the font size is a little off and I can't seem to find a way of adjusting it in the settings. It's a little too small and when I adjust the screen size it goes from a little too small to a little too large which makes things unsettling. Everything else, yeah, obviously thank you for all of that, I thought it went without saying but thank you for all of that. Is there a way to adjust the font size or make the default larger? I think a 12 point is pretty standard?

The font is very small and I don't know why they did that. Why would they make the font smaller? Why would you make me break character?

All I wanted to do was talk about people getting thrown out of public bathrooms. That's all I had to look forward to. Instead, I just installed an extension to allow font sizes to be larger. Lemme see if this works. You know you have to pay to use public toilets in some parts of Europe?

There is an extension to increase the font size.

It is installed.

It does not work for the black "family" of styles.

Which is what we want it to work for.

Everything involving phpBB is a clusterfuck of incompatibility. Then you eventually directly modify your database and ruin everything.

Steps will be taken when my shift is over.

In the meantime:
