  1. Which one, the default or @BobDobalina's suggestion?
  2. With the new features and now the new Ranking system, I think we should come up with more WATMM-centric names for the levels. Here's the list of levels, and I welcome anybody's suggestions as to what to call them (or leave them as-is). I would also welcome any suggested graphics (created or otherwise): Newbie 6242 members 0 points Rookie 261 members 40 points Apprentice 202 members 90 points Explorer 87 members 185 points Contributor 109 members 250 points Enthusiast 158 members 400 points Collaborator 99 members 800 points Community Regular 106 members 1300 points Rising Star 60 members 1950 points Proficient 95 members 2600 points Experienced 47 members 3900 points Mentor 101 members 5200 points Veteran 54 members 9100 points Grand Master 163 members 13000 points If you can forward those emails to webmaster@watmm.com I'd like to see them (and provide them to the vendor for troubleshooting). Thanks!
  3. Check your notification settings - the upgrade may have triggered some backlog or changed settings (although it shouldn't have).
  4. It's a change for better security, but I've changed it back (temporarily) to allow people to log in since apparently people can't recall what email address they registered with.
  5. That sounds more like a third-world problem (sans the recycling bin)
  6. Just a system upgrade that brings some new features, and this is their new ranking system where you earn "points" for doing things on the forum... I'm still delving into all the new stuff so please let me know if you discover something that seems out of place or a bug.

    I honestly hope we can get there... the biggest issue is fossil fuels are still too cheap to harvest, make, distribute, etc. (and profit from) compared to renewable sources. I kinda had hoped when they predicted we'd run out of fossil fuels 20 years ago (about now) would have actually happened if it weren't for fracking, which is like the root canal of refining and processing fuel...

    And when your EV reaches the end of its life (or the battery capacity becomes problematic) I guess we can hope by then we won't have a new problem on hand of what to do with all those toxic batteries from all the first generation EVs...
  9. I never knew about this...

    We have that in the US (in most states) as well - I have been using an electric provider since 2004 that produces 100% renewable energy via wind and solar. The reality is though, while choosing a provider that creates renewable energy does some good, the reality is the owners of the transmission network can't separate out the renewable vs the fossil fuel-based electricity, so you're still using "dirty" electricity in some capacity. Only until the majority of electric providers are 100% renewable will we have true "clean(er)" energy. And yes, electric cars (once we get to that tipping point with renewable energy) do provide an option, and as more and more people and car manufacturers move to electric, that will help - but right now, we're polluting more by making electricity than what fossil fuel vehicles produce and that was my point.

    Pollution from power plants to generate electricity has caused more damage than cars have

  14. Yep, loved it, even though I think Nintendo made the right call and turned Doki Doki Panic into SMB 2 USA, which still stands as my favourite Mario game. This (and the SMB one) are just nostalgic collectors items or good gifts for people. The SMB one is easy to find and is on sale for 10 bucks off almost everywhere. Once the unsold stock gets depleted, it might rise in value for Mario's 50th anniversary.
  15. - Looks at total playtime on Control - Yeeeaaaahhhh...
  16. I don't know if Richard still has a penchant for DIY equipment, but who knows...
  17. Nobody... because there aren't any fuskfjolasjfeflisefjlj!lhk3rkhw3rhk3nhf! graphics cards... ?
  18. That, or the huge influx in users triggered an alert in the bunker...
