As far as I know, a PHP upgrade broke the entire codebase, so the rest of the site is down (as the forums could just be updated to a newer phpBB). You can find games on the Museum of ZZT.

Sigh, I suppose it was necessary, but I hate the mobile view of newer phpbb

Yeah, repairs are in progress. PHP's original MySQL library finally transitioned from deprecated to removed, which means a bunch of site code needs to be updated.

Is it a functional or aesthetic issue? If it's the latter, I'm open to installing a theme or two. The previous theme (subsilver2) is no longer supported.

No it’s the layout. Not being able to see who started a thread. The tiny avatars, which if bigger would look bad because that’s how posts are broken up, and the way posts are displayed with avatar on top makes all the posts sort of blend together. Much prefer bigger avatar to the side. You can’t see last posts on forum views. The wall of emoticons is now above the input box... but don’t mind me, just I’m just an old man yelling at a cloud.
