I ditched the participated link because it's stupid imo
If it's something people actually use, let me know, and I'll put it next to "recent posts".
If you are on a pc and still see the old crap hold ctrl and press F5. On a mac, command F5 probably.

"you have clicked enter you have moved the mouse, you pressed A B C D E F G G G G" LOL

I just clicked on the New Participated link for the first time ever. Decent feature I guess.

There shouldn't be a participated link... at all... currently... If you are on a pc, on any dbf page, hold ctrl and tap F5 and your page will reload and you will no longer have the participated link nor the Dragonball figures toys collectibles blah blah blah that takes up almost the entire width of your screen underneath the main navigation. Your browser will EVENTUALLY do this for you, but it can take days, weeks, months. If you don't use Firefox, and use something else instead and this doesn't work, google it If you are using a mac, hold command and shift and then press R. dotjay.co.uk/2007/05/hard-refresh-firefox-macIf you are on a phone, you probably just have to refresh/reload the page with the little icon next to the url at the top of your browser. I'll add the participated link to the top later today.

No... c'mon King. I remember you told me you were a web developer or trying to become one. You shouldn't have to be asking me questions like this. If you've ever designed anything, you should know this keyboard command for anything you've designed otherwise you won't see updated linked CSS or JS files. If your browser hasn't loaded the current CSS file it's still reading from the cache. It's not a big deal as my change is not even intended as an improvement for computer users, it's intended as an improvement for phone and tablet users. There is no alternate answer for why you still have the old CSS file the site is referring to. It's reading from the cache. The only answer. There is no selective loading. It's reading from the CSS file that your browser has previously downloaded and is not downloading the replacement. You shouldn't need to clear your browser history... browser cache... or anything like that as that's overkill. If on a PC: Ctrl + F5 on any DBF page or if you want a more complicated one, Ctrl + Shift + R. On a mac: Cmmd + Shift + R is what supposedly causes a page to reload from scratch. It isn't necessary to do any of these things though. My change was minor... refreshing a few times could solve it... typing dragonballfigures.boards.net in your URL bar and pressing enter could solve it... or just waiting for your browser to stop being lazy several days should solve the problem. I don't know how long browsers typically wait before checking for updated files. I'm about to add the participated link to the top, but that won't be a CSS change except for the brief time period in which I am going to be unhiding the original button so I can find it in the code to steal the URL.

Thanks for the clarification, I didn't know you didn't really specialize in web. Cmmd + R is just refresh from cache, basically meaning "show me new HTML". Cmmd + Shift + R is refresh not from cache, which basically means "show me new HTML and anything that has changed recently that is linked to in the html (like CSS and JS)" Cmmd + Shift + R will also reload any images from scratch as well, so it will be a slow refresh if you are not on a super high speed internet connection. Since you do some web dev, I can mention that a refresh like this will not work well when some javascript is involved (ex: if you use javascript to preload images that are not yet visible, a cmmd + shift + r will not preload those images, you have to follow that keyboard command with cmmd + r in order to get the preload to work). I can't remember why, but that's just how it is. There isn't anything on DBF like that though to test it on. That was just for King's own knowledge. When you see this thread, you should be getting this (see attachment), but if you aren't, it isn't a big deal, because eventually you will, whenever your browser checks for new code. I'm not specifically a web developer myself, so the nerdiness about when and why browsers check for new code isn't something I know or care much about. All I know is it's maybe every week, and you can force it with the keyboard shortcuts I've mentioned.

nope, I was well aware of that, even with my Cache cleared it gives me the same thing, i even tried using another Browser What browser and what browser version are you using when you made this screenshot? Is it severely outdated? You don't even have the webfonts loading. All of your yellow text is the wrong font and so is the white text for our user names. Heck, even the font for the things we say in our posts is the wrong font. Is this some old version of Safari? Chrome that has somehow avoided the updates they roll out with? Internet Explorer 7, 8, or 9? Some sort of customized security settings on your browser? Because this makes no sense at all. So not only are you not getting the version of the CSS I saved the other day, but you aren't getting the fonts that I put on the site before we even allowed people to join (in other words, you have apparently NEVER had the fonts the rest of us enjoy, because I programmed the webfonts days before you could have possibly even known DBF existed.). Something is weird or really outdated about the browser you're using.

*Looks again* You don't even have the ads, nor the space for one to load should one appear. You have some sort of ad blocker don't you? No wonder you have so many issues!! I can't believe I wasted so much time diagnosing this.
