Any Improvements?

It was added for some reason a while back as it was being over-used by several posters to describe pretty much everything. I can take it out if it's going to be used responsibly.

Can't you make it that it could only be used like its say in the Political section? Because I don't think there is a need to use it anywhere else in the forum basically
 
There's some bug in the forums. The post owners are getting changed automatically.(?) For example, this post belonged to VC the slogger few hours ago, now its a newbie's.

When I've experienced that error a refresh usually solved it. The long term solution might be to cull the server of the previous vBookie events to reduce the table size - we'll have - though I worry that might break things with vCash/threads.
 
It is pretty random. I've faced this problem mostly on my iPad on chrome browser. I tried it on the computer today and it showed up this error once, but it did not repeat.

Well it is certainly a server side error not something because of your browser, so you're fine regarding that.
 
We already have a lot of themes, and personally, I've never used any other apart from the default.
It's just a matter of getting used to something.
