I'm a participant on a couple of other web forums, but whenever I'm at them, I feel incredibly frustrated. Why? Because I can't access the admin control panel. It's incredibly maddening, and I got to thinking that probably a lot of people feel the same way.

So on a test basis, I have made everyone an administrator. You will see that a lot of people now have their color as red, and you will find a link to the "Administration Control Panel" at the bottom of every page. However, because of some changes I made to the default template recently, you may have some trouble finding it. I'm working on it, but it is there.

I always like to try things out before dismissing them outright, and that's the case here. If people don't act responsibly, then I will end it. This does mean that you can now ban people, but please use this power responsibly.

If this doesn't work out, then we'll return to normal.

Also, please keep on the lookout for a few other things I will be implementing quite soon.

EDIT:

APRIL FOOLS!

This is going to be great! We can fix up all the site errors when you're gone, plus when we want to implement changes, then we don't have to go to you or Mesh. And setting up groups never was easier.

Thanks Nate!

Yes it was.

*blink blink*

:shock:

I want to believe that this is for April Fools... but I don't think it is.

EDIT: I have a question--why are some people still normal?
