08.10.2012 forum has been updated to version 3.1:

8. Forum loading-speed update, by modification of ~eW`~>Toolbar
- The Tollbar doesn't load apps if you don't need to use them.
- The Tollbar loads: Music player, EE2: Status Center, Search, EE2Glitchers "on click", no while forum.ee2.eu page is loading (like it was in the versions 2.0-3.0 of the forum)
- ~eW`~>FORUM uses less RAM memory on your computer
- ~eW`~>FORUM loads faster and doesn't lagg your computer with 4 external web-pages


9. Fixed display problem on Google Chrome Internet Browser in: ~eW`~>Toolbar
Since version 2.0 of the forum, there was a problem with ~eW`~>Toolbar: It worked fine, when you used it the first time. When you closed/minimized application, and then you opened/maximized it again - the frame with app went on the right side of your screen. The only one possible way to fix this was to refresh ~eW`~>FORUM page. Now this issue has been fixed, and you can use the toolbar on your favorite Internet Browser without any problem : - )

10. Changed the number of displayed "tweets" from the Twitter app on the FORUM
The number of tweets has been changed from 100 to 20. It will help to load the forum page faster than before.
The old tweets can be still checked on the EE2News twitter page: https://twitter.com/EE2News

Deus, and others - please tell me if this update has fixed all your problems with the forum

11. Auto width and height of ~eW`~>Toolbar
The greatest update in whole version 3.1
Today I wrote a terrible long script, which detects your screen resolution, and views the Apps from ~eW`~>Toolbar in % of your screen resolution. That means - now, even if you use a low screen resolution - you will be able to see all apps from ~eW`~>Toolbar on your screen. Width and Height of Apps is fully-automated.

wow, sincerely... this version is certainly better than last one. Before I couldn't use chatbox for some random reason and now I may use chat, music and see the forum topics simultaneously. Great job you did.

Lukwerty, not everyone has a super computer, certainly not me since I'm on my old laptop since I didn't bring my real computer, and it was slow to scroll down and click on forums, even slow to move the mouse around. This is better by far but I wish there was a skin option to change it back for inidual use.

The New One is better! I needed time to judge, it was very strange to my eyes first days, but now i think it is better.

Who else has voted for version 2.0?
I'd like to know the reasons, so I can help to solve the problems with version 3.1

12. Auto width and height of ~eW`~>Toolbar fixed on Internet Explorer 9 and older
With Matty's help I fixed the Intnernet Explorer issue with auto width and auto height.
Anyway I recommend to upgarde your Internet browsers to Chrome, Opera or Firefox.

I'm liking the message bar on the top of the page. But could you change it back to where you don't automatically log into the chatbox, it makes me lag a bit.

The message bar is only an information about currently GameSpy issue, and it will be removed in the future.

I cannot disable auto log-in chat, because this is a good way to make it more active.
When you visit the forum you can just minimize it by clicking on the grey bar.

Of course auto log-in might be disabled in the future, but now, when EE2 servers are not working it's one of the most important places for people.
Chat Box also has ~4KB size, and I don't think it is reason of any lag.
If you use Google Chrome, type this in the address bar: chrome://flags/
Find: "Smooth scrolling" and "Enable".
Then you will see the button on the bottom of page: "Restart now" (to apply changes). Click it.

Forum and other websites should now less lag your computer.
