Pictures per post changed from 4 to 10(please include 56K warning if needed)
Time between posts changed from 30 seconds to 15 seconds
Maximum number of choices on a poll changed from 10 to 15
Members can now change their choice in polls
Birthdays will be removed from the calendar
Minimum characters required for a search changed from 4 to 3
Added fields for online gaming ID's to the User Profile
Off Topic Discussion renamed Non Gaming Discussion
Changed idle time before auto logoff from 15 minutes to 60 minutes

Hopefully no one has any problems with any of these changes.

It's a start anyway. We're still just finding out what we can and can't do on our own. We may make other small tweaks as we find things.

So now you can agree with somebody in a post, but not disagree without posting one more character? New admins are terrible.
