In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.
After many years of failed programmers run off by He Who Shall Not Be Named, we finally have astral making progress and improving the forums! We've already seen major improvements since DEAR JEFFREY took over and hired astral.

GBS we should show our support of their excellent work! Many thanks to astral for improving the forums!

Is it a new feature that when you paste something it automatically does tags for you? I'm very dumb but I think so and it rules.
Thanks astral!

So, how much of the original forum's software still exists? Is it not basically all new or is it kind of like the ship of Theseus?

I dunno, OP, he seems quite critical of other programmers when he himself is guilty of many of the same things, but on the other hand I don't believe in astral projection

Not often, but yeah, I come across old references to things on here and its better to do the research yourself and use SAclopedia or Google to find the old thread.

Despite several emails, posted mail and phone calls, including one to his mother, Astral has still not made my (and only my) posts font size 50.

So no OP. No I won't be appreciating Astral.

I offered to allow astral to tattoo each post made across my supple (and ample) buttocks as a backup system and he very rudely told me to please leave his home AND asked how I'd gotten in there VERY sharply which I found excessive

"Only compensation"? Wtf I hope not. Look what happened with HE WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED's choice of programmer. You pay peanuts, you get monkeys!

I'm not saying Astral is a monkey, I'm saying pay this person well pls Jeffrey, for one thing they'll need lots of expensive psychotherapy after spending so much time looking at the old code.

Pretty sure it's just a joke.

Anyway, more praise for astral is they fixed some dumb little issue with something which I can't remember when I mentioned it. It's amazing having actual responsive support and I want to kiss astral on the lips smooch smooch.
