The reason why Minecraft is so good for lets plays is because people can discuss what they're building. And even more importantly, people can discuss their life.

Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.

I thought it was because it was so overdone and so popular nowadays. That might just be me though.
Also, if we're going to go for a new site format/design, don't make it like the default phpBB forum design, or people might not take the site itself seriously. Needs something that catches the eye, y'know. I was thinking something like red, purple, or green for the background because those seem to be pretty popular colors nowadays.

Keep this colour scheme. Please. It's relaxing on the eyes.

If we get a new colour scheme keep it the normal blue and black colours. Or make it a darkish green because I like the colour green.
Also replace the buildings with pictures of N
(no but seriously take everything but the thing about N srsly)

I came to this forum to post levels. I found out about SM63 way back in 2009,and I was wondering what was that "Runouw" green thing before the menu shows up. I started here as a visitor,occasionally browsing the old level portal and playing people's levels. Then I wanted to post my levels too,and I went through great pains to register. Half a year later since I registered,I introduced somebody to this forums,but he came back to me the next day complaining it was so hard to get through the CAPTHCHA. I guess the anti-spambot measures are really taking it tough on the newcomers.

Whilst I have poked around the ACP I have been told nothing about it and what to do with what. I'm not going to edit code on the high chance that I'll break something.
Is there any documentation I can read?

Hey, I thought you were a great mod too, Blab.
@Buff For the heavy stuff you should look into learning PHP, since that's what the forums are coded in, and phpBB's website would have more forum specific info too. phpBB's site also has info on all the mods available that other people have already coded. Otherwise, some general HTML coding would allow some lighter modifications. Do some Google searches on tutorials for that stuff, and you should find more than enough to read.
I would like to see YouTube stuff on SM63 and LL too. I think that's a great idea. And as for the popularity of stuff on YT, it's a roll of the dice mostly, and just getting us out there increases our chances of hitting something that the YT community can get into. Also, getting LL on Steam would get us a good amount of visibility. There are other places to sell indie games that would help too, like GOG. Heck, even getting Runouw to enter a few Ludum Dare competitions would get the right kind of attention.
