A huge round of applause to paulej72 for going through the bug list and sorting out much of what was there. Furthermore, I'd also like to extend thanks to iWantToKeepAnon and TheMightyBuzzard for contributions to this release.
As always, feel free to submit your issues to our bugtracker where our crack team of flying monkeys will labor to try and make it part of future site upgrades.
Check past the break for more thoughts and comments on these changes.
There's still a quite a bit of low hanging fruit, so if you like to blowtorch old codebases, grab the source and start deleting!
Subscriber Code Enabled
We're not offering subscriptions until post-incorporation, but we wanted to start looking and smoketesting this code in preparation for that happy day. Expect to see a few users with *'s after their name that marks them as a subscriber. As a note, the subscriber +1 pseudo-mod is disabled by default, so subscriber posts do not show up higher than they otherwise would.
I'd like to get a discussion going with the community on what sort of things you'd like to see from subscribing, so look for that article, and start brainstorming on what you would be willing to pay for (like shell accounts, USENET access, or some other service we could reasonable provide?)

We don't have enough moderation going on to really use ANY option that only shows highly rated comments. Setting that option just makes other people do your thinking for you anyway.
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.

+5 was just for testing.
If you want to browse at -1, be my guest, but I'm not at all interested. Why use the site if you don't use the benefits of moderation? YouTube comments should suit you, better.
I *always* try to have other people do my *tedium* for me, and modding-down spam, trolls, flames, etc, is exactly that... tedium. Little to no thinking necessary.
