Salams all,
After monkeying with the site last time, I learned my lesson and would like to pre-empt the PMs and e-mails by posting incremental updates in here.
I just finished up some performance tuning and hopefully things will be slight...

Salams all,
This weekend will be kinda up-and-down for us as I perform a few minor upgrades, make a few additions and roll out a few new parts of the site.
Some parts will be more noticeable than others and your patience will be appreciat...

Salams all,
Today's April fools activities have gone on a few hours too long, I think.
No, the site hasn't been hacked. The moderators still have their powers (but they've scrambled their avatars/signatures/taglines) and all locked threa...

I'd like to congratulate the newest additions to our moderating staff -- Khairan & MuslimZ.
Both have been part of our community for quite some time and demonstrated the characteristics we look for in potential new mo...

As'salaamu'alaikum everyone,
I'm my enthusiasm to get back to working on things, I realize I broke the site yesterday and didn't notice it until right about now.
We're back. I'll make sure I'm more careful, moving forward.

As'salaamu'alaikum everyone,
I'm glad to see that the site is running (smoothly?), people are still visiting here quite frequently and consider this site worth their time.

I'm finishing up my final preps before leaving for hajj, insh'Allah, and a thought popped into my mind.
I wanted to leave this question out for the community to discuss while I'm gone but basically: what are your thoughts rega...

I added a new "tags" feature to the site. This is an optional piece of information you can include when creating a thread and allow others to search for your threads via tags in addition to the search engine.
It works si...

Salams everyone,
Are you sick of mindlessly clicking "new posts" just to feed your Islamica obsession?
Addicts rejoice.
There's a new feature on the site called the "Thread Spy". It's very similar to the "spy" feature on digg (if you visit that ...

I apologize for the rockiness this morning. To make a long and geeky story short, one of the "optimizations" I performed yesterday seems to have backfired and now we're on a much nicer setup.
Please feel free to PM me or drop...

I (naively felt like I) implemented a true "new posts" feature earlier in the day and it's causing a bit of annoyance and frustration amongst a few folks.
It's easy for me to flip the switch and go back to the old wa...

Salams everyone,
Up until now, when you were browsing the boards and left for any reason, the site "timed you out" and all of the posts which were "new" (regardless of whether or not you read them) were marked as "old" (or "read", depending on ho...
