Looks nice but takes a bit of getting used to!

I too am now using the northernscum URL due to auto login not working on dragons.org. Also due to me being lazy.

Is it just me or is the search a little buggy?
Especially old topics aren't found.

The encoding is fine, you just need to uncheck the Disable BBCode when you post a new message. By default this is checked but once you uncheck it you won't have to do it again.

PS, I've already done it in your post above to the quote is working

Has this been fixed? As I've just received my first pm and topic reply notifications? I haven't changed any settings on my profile...

Oh btw, we can't enable bbcode on this 'Announcements & Club Issues' forum by ourselves. It is off by default and there is no button/checkbox to enable it :)
