Well I've made a bunch of site changed over the past 24 hours so I thought I'd update you all about what they are and how they work in a single post instead of waiting for you to find them on your own 
- MEMBER LIST -- While not new, you will notice that there is a "Members" link in the top right corner. Clicking it will produce a list of the board's members. Some of the sort functions don't work but enough does to make it plenty useful.
- WHO'S ONLINE -- At the bottom of the forum list there is a new that will show you who is currently browsing the board. Well actually it shows you who has been here in the last ten minutes but close enough. It may annoy some to be fingered so tonight I'm going to add an anonymous feature that will allow your identity to remain hidden is you choose through your profile.
- MOVE TOPIC -- A new change has been added such that when a topic is moved to another forum, the link to the topic will take you to the new location instead of just showing you the locked thread in the current location. This will help differentiate threads that were moved from those that were locked. It will also make navigating a bit easier. The change comes with a new folder icon as well.
- PRIVATE MESSAGES -- You can now send messages to individual members directly. There are some things still broken, like UBB Code parsing but generally it works well. This is a plus for those that don't want to publish their email addresses.
Hmmm, there might be one or two more but I cant remember right now. Enjoy the new features and let me know how they work out for you.
BTW, you can "login" by clicking the S2000Online logo. If your cookies seem a bit messed up, go to prefs and delete them and start over.

I do, however, greatly appreciate your efforts to enhance this site in general.

C3, we all owe a great debt of gratitude for putting up this great site so fast. In only a few days it was already better than the other brand and as the knowledge base grows, it will be incredible.
Congratulations.
And no crashes!
