Opens shiney new doors to redecorated bar Come join in a special Innagural Fiesta to christen the new boards!

Wooohooooo!

Welcome, welcome, welcome everyone to the new TORn boards! Laugh

All the links are on this web page. Feel free to share the links with other TORNsibs... since I may be busy trying to get these up.

It's so great to see so many familiar nicks here, and to see some changes I know people have been wanting to make for a long time (like losing numbers after their names, and indefinite articles before their names, and so on.)

I love the feature that lets us see how many views a post has had! People don't always reply, so it's great to see that a post is being read.

Answer unclear: ask again later

The latest guesstimate is late April/early May. The developer will have a better estimate in March when they start framing. Right now some of the finished units have begun to close and the pacing depends on how many 30-day punch-list items surface on the finished units that cause the workers to be pulled off the unfinished units.

My dilemma is that I've got a lease that expires on April 30, and an initial enquiry whether I can stay an extra month was met with some resistance. Chicago has a traditional May 1/October 1 leasing cycle, and staying an extra month will throw that off. But I think I'll be OK in the end. The landlord needs to make some repairs on my apartment and it needs to be painted, so they won't be able to rent it right away. I've made it clear that if I have to move out before my condo is done I won't be leaving before April 30,so they won't have enough time for someone to move in on May 1. I've tempted them with a full month's rent in May and ample time to make the updates they need, so I'm cautiously optimistic I'll be able to stay and close in early May.

Then, don't click on "user profile", but rather the thing below it, I think it's called something "settings". Go to the very bottom. If you're on Eastern Time put -5. If you're Central Time, put -6, Mountain -7, Pacific -8. If you're not in the US you'll have to check the FAQ 'cause I couldn't tell you.

Was on here last night and somehow missed this fiesta thread . . . still feeling somewhat discombobulated. Or as a friend of mine once said, discongoblinated.

I love seeing everyone's new avatars and footers, but as someone mentioned in another thread (which I'm too discongoblinated to go back and find), I think it would be a shame if anyone felt pressured to create fancy avatars and footers. What I love about TORn is the thoughtful and friendly posts, not people showing off their Photoshop or HTML skills.

It's weird how even the board-features that are exactly the same are somehow confusing to me here. Crazy

Hello, old friend :-)

Lovely to see you.

Things are going okay, though quite busily. Summer looks like it might finish early, which I'm very pleased about.

Hope to see you more often!

Nice avatar and Hello from former lurker!

Nice avatar!!

I was lurking and came in late to the party. LOL
I've been an first Ager when it comes to TORn, reading news and spy reports, before the 1st movie came out, and I visited the forum now and then. But like another newbie said, the layout confused me. Now I finally joined and as an official member I guess I'm a fourth ager. LOL
Excelent job :)

Well, better late than never! I'm going to have to get used to this. (TORN is the only boards I've posted on.) But congrats on the new look!

Finally!

I am finally here! It took long enough, 3 days of email torment. I'm going to pour myself a tall Dublin Dr. Pepper and drink it straight.
